Francesco Autore, MD, PhD, Fondazione Policlinico Universitario A. Gemelli IRCCS, Rome, Italy, discusses a multi-center study comparing bendamustine and rituximab (BR) to rituximab, cyclophosphamide and dexamethasone (RCD) in Waldenström’s macroglobulinemia. The study found that the BR group had better progression-free survival (PFS) and response rates. The tolerability was comparable, although those treated with BR had higher hematological toxicity. This interview took place at the 12th International Workshop on Waldenström’s Macroglobulinemia (IWWM-12) in Prague, Czech Republic.
