PurposeWe examined the activity of bortezomib, dexamethasone, and rituximab (BDR) in patients with symptomatic, untreated Waldenstrom macroglobulinemia (WM).Patients and MethodsA cycle of therapy consisted of bortezomib 1.3 mg/m(2) intravenously; dexamethasone 40 mg on days 1, 4, 8, and 11; and rituximab 375 mg/m(2) on day 11. Patients received four consecutive cycles for induction therapy and then four more cycles, each given 3 months apart, for maintenance therapy. Twenty-three patients received a median of seven cycles of treatment.ResultsMedian bone marrow disease involvement declined from 55% to 10% (P = .0004), serum immunoglobulin M levels declined from 4,830 to 1,115 mg/dL (P = .0001), and hematocrit increased from 29.8% to 38.2% (P = .0002) at best response. The overall response rates and major response rates were 96% and 83% with three complete responses, two near complete responses, three very good partial responses, 11 partial responses, and three minor responses. Responses occurred at a median of 1.4 months. With a median follow-up of 22.8 months, 18 of 23 patients remained free of disease progression. Peripheral neuropathy was the most common toxicity, and it resolved to grade
