Summary

This study aims at evaluating the possible beneficial role of Fenofibrate in attenuating the peripheral neuropathy associated with bortezomib (velcade), lenalidomide (revlimid), and dexamethasone (VRd) regimen in newly diagnosed multiple myeloma patients.The study aims to asses VRd protocol induced peripheral neuropathy through:

1. The implication of National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI-CTCAE, Version 5, 2017) and The use of Neurotoxicity-12 items questionnaire score (Ntx-12) from the validated Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy/Gynecologic Oncology Group "FACT/GOG-Ntx-12 for grading of neuropathy at baseline and by the end of every two VRd cycles.
2. The assessment of biological markers:

Brain -derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) and Neuro-filament light chain (NfL). through comparing two groups: Group one: (Control group; n=22): which will receive 6 cycles of VRd regimen (each cycle will be given every 28 days).

Group two: (Fenofibrate group; n=22): which will receive the same regimen plus Fenofibrate 160 mg once daily.

DRUG

Bortezomib + Lenalidomide + Dexamethasone + Fenofibrate 160 mg tablet

Bortezomib (VELCADE® 3.5mg/ml) is diluted by 1.4 ml of normal saline (0.9%) solution to give a solution of a concentration of 2.5 mg/mL then the dose will be 1.3 mg/m2 administered subcutaneously at thigh or abdomen at days 1,8,15,22. Lenalidomide is given as 25mg orally at days from 1 to 21. Dexamethasone is given as 40mg orally at days 1,8,15,22. Fenofibrate 160 mg tablets orally once daily during the period of the 6 cycles of the(VRd) regimen.
