Summary
This study tested a three-drug oral regimen (thalidomide, cyclophosphamide, and dexamethasone) followed by maintenance therapy (thalidomide and prednisone) in 44 adults newly diagnosed with Waldenström macroglobulinemia, a rare blood cancer. The goal was to see how well the treatment controlled the disease. Participants had not received standard treatments like rituximab or bortezomib. The main measure was overall response rate, with progression-free survival also tracked.
