Time frame: From the start of the second line therapy until second symptomatic relapse (up to approximately 4 years)
Clinical relapse is confirmed when one or more of the following criteria (CRAB-criteria: MM-associated symptoms, including hypercalcemia, renal failure, anemia, bone disease criteria) are found. Hypercalcemia (>2.75 mmol/L or >11.5 mg/dL), renal failure: serum creatinine level >2 mg/dL (>173 mmol/L), anemia: normochromic normocytic anemia with hemoglobin level by <2 g/dL (20 mg/L) less than the lower limit of the normal level or hemoglobin level <10 g/dL (<100 g/L), bone lesions (lytic lesions, severe osteopenia, compression fractures). Subgroups for analysis: MM ISS stages: I, II, III; MFS: 0 and 1 vs 2 and more;Cytogenetic risk: high-risk vs standard risk; Best response during 1st line treatment: a PR a CR or VGPR; Performance status: ECOG = 0-1 vs ECOG = 2, ASCT vs non-ASCT receivers; Maintenance therapy; Treatment regimens of 1st line;Therapeutic regimens of 2nd line (Rd, VRD, KRd, IxaRd, DaraRd, EloRd, other).
