Is Kyprolis (carfilzomib) a treatment option for a first relapse of myeloma? (https://www.myeloma.org/videos/kyprolisr-carfilzomib-treatment-option-first-relapse-myeloma)

 

In this week’s video, Dr. Brian GM Durie talks about benefits and risks of the combination therapies of Kyprolis and dexamethasone (Kd), and Kyprolis, Revlimid, and dexamethasone (KRd).

BOTTOM LINE:
Kyprolis as a doublet or as a triplet is an excellent option, but work with your doctor to monitor its possible side effects.
