  • Title: [Therapy of paraproteinemic hemoblastoses].
    Author: Fereberger W.
    Journal: Acta Med Austriaca; 1982; 9(4):151-7. PubMed ID: 6814158.
    Abstract:
    Chemotherapy with alkylating agents and Prednisone can achieve a prolonged median survival time in patients with multiple myeloma which lasts as long as the remission endures. Aggressive therapeutic regimens could not achieve a further tumor cell reduction as soon as a stable phase is reached. Waldenström's macroglobulinemia requires a therapeutic approach, which is adjusted to the individual case. Patients with small tumor mass and therapy responders have a significant prolonged median survival time compared to patients with large tumor mass and non-responders.
