An Open-Label, Dose-Escalation, Phase 1/2 Study of the Oral Form of Ixazomib (MLN9708), a Next-Generation Proteasome Inhibitor, Administered in Combination With a Standard Care Regimen of Melphalan and Prednisone in Patients With Newly Diagnosed Multiple Myeloma Requiring Systemic Treatment

Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
The purpose of this phase 1/2, open-label study was to evaluate the effect of oral formulation of Ixazomib when added to standard melphalan and prednisone (MP) treatment. Both phases of the study included participants who had newly diagnosed multiple myeloma and were ineligible for high-dose therapy plus stem cell transplantation because of age (≥65 years of age) or coexisting conditions and for whom standard MP treatment was indicated.
