OBJECTIVE: As multiple myeloma (MM) therapies advance, understanding patients', caregivers', and physicians' perspectives on, and satisfaction with, available treatment options and their impact on quality of life (QoL), is important.
METHODS: EASEMENT is a real-world, observational, cross-sectional study conducted in 19 sites within the UK, Canada, and Italy using retrospective chart reviews and surveys. Enrolled patients had clinical history available since diagnosis and had received ≥1 cycle of their current line of therapy. Primary objectives were to describe patient/caregiver QoL (EQ-5D-5L questionnaire), patient preference for oral/injectable therapies (single discrete-choice question), and patient satisfaction (TSQM-9 questionnaire).
RESULTS: Between October 2018 and March 2020, 399 patients were enrolled (n = 192 newly diagnosed multiple myeloma [NDMM], n = 206 relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma [RRMM], n = 1 missing). Among NDMM and RRMM patients, 78%/22% and 42%/58% were receiving injectables/orals, respectively. Both NDMM and RRMM patients significantly preferred orals versus injectables (p < .0001). No significant differences were reported in treatment satisfaction or QoL, but treatment convenience favoured orals over injectables with near significance (p = .053).
CONCLUSION: MM patients perceived greater convenience and preference for orals versus injectables. Oral treatments are useful for patients who cannot or prefer not to travel to clinics, or cannot perform self-injection within the community.
