1.Primary Outcome
Title Kaplan Meier Estimates of Progression-free Survival (PFS) Based on the Response Assessment by the Central Adjudication Committee (CAC)
Hide Description

Data as of 11 May 2010 cutoff. PFS was calculated as the time from randomization to the earlier of the first documentation of progressive disease (PD) as determined by the CAC, or death on study due to any cause. PD was based on the European Group for Blood and Marrow Transplantation/International Bone Marrow Transplant Registry/Autologous Bone Marrow Transplant Registry [EBMT/IBMTR/ABMTR] criteria.

PD criteria includes increasing monoclonal paraprotein levels, bone marrow findings, worsening lytic bone disease, progressively enlarging extramedullary plasmacytomas, or hypercalcemia.

Title Kaplan Meier Estimates for Duration of Response as Determined by the Central Adjudication Committee (CAC)
Hide Description

Data as of 11 May 2010 cutoff. Duration of myeloma response was defined as the time from the initial response date to the earlier of progressive disease (PD) as determined by the CAC or death on study. PD was based on the European Group for Blood and Marrow Transplantation/International Bone Marrow Transplant Registry/Autologous Bone Marrow Transplant Registry [EBMT/IBMTR/ABMTR] criteria.

PD criteria includes increasing monoclonal paraprotein levels, bone marrow findings, worsening lytic bone disease, progressively enlarging extramedullary plasmacytomas, or hypercalcemia.

Hide Description Data as of 11 May 2010 cutoff. EORTC QLQ-C30 is a 30-item questionnaire to assess the overall quality of life in cancer patients. Most questions used 4-point scale (1 'Not at All' to 4 'Very Much'); 2 questions used 7-point scale (1 'Very Poor' to 7 'Excellent'). Scores are averaged, and transformed to 0-100 scale; higher score = better level of social functioning.

Title Change From Baseline to Cycles 4, 7, 10, 13, 16 in European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire for Patients With Multiple Myeloma (EORTC QLQ-MY20) Disease Symptoms Scale
Hide Description Data as of 11 May 2010 cutoff. EORTC QLQ-MY20 is a validated questionnaire to assess the overall quality of life in patients with multiple myeloma. EORTC QLQ-MY20 includes four scales: disease symptoms, treatment side-effects, future perspective, and body image. Questions used 4-point scale (1 'Not at All' to 4 'Very Much'). Scores are averaged, and transformed to 0-100 scale; higher score for the disease symptoms scale = higher level of symptomatology.
