Patient-Reported Factors in Treatment Satisfaction in Patients with Relapsed/Refractory Multiple Myeloma (RRMM)

Abstract: This article identifies factors associated with patient‐reported satisfaction with multiple myeloma therapy and the treatment‐related time burden and indirect costs among patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma and their caregivers. Improved understanding of these variables will inform treatment decisions across this complex treatment landscape.

“…Therefore, IRd therapy offers the potential for improved medication adherence compared with regimens which include a parenteral component. Additionally, the administration of an all-oral treatment regimen has been associated with increased patient-reported satisfaction with treatment convenience [40].…”

“…Extended travel distances to therapy or inconvenient care locations are barriers to patient care, particularly for those receiving later-line oncology therapy who may have poorer performance status. Travel can also greatly increase out-of-pocket therapy costs, making it unfeasible or burdensome for some patients to receive treatment [3,[5][6][7]. Consequently, longer travel distances may impose socioeconomic and clinical disparities on patients.…”

“… 45 Such oral regimens are reportedly more convenient, improving adherence, reducing the cost associated with the number of medical visits per month, time spent in travel, waiting, and receiving treatment that non-oral therapies require. 46 Increases in drug costs associated with the uptake of XVd are partially offset by lower secondary therapy, routine healthcare, and mortality costs. For example, the addition of selinexor to Vd is associated with significantly reduced rates of any grade and Grade ≥2 PN, common with higher bortezomib dose regimens, which is associated with higher costs and healthcare resource utilization in patients with MM.…”
