About this trial
This is a prospective, randomized, two-arm, multicenter, exploratory study aimed at evaluating the efficacy and safety of the combination of etoposide, cytarabine and Pegfilgrastim (EAP regimen) for mobilizing hematopoietic stem cells in patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma (NDMM). A total of 99 NDMM patients will be enrolled and randomly assigned to receive either the EAP regimen or the GC regimen (cyclophosphamide+ G-CSF) to mobilize hematopoietic stem cells. Subsequently, the mobilization effects and adverse reactions of all patients will be observed and compared.

Treatment groups
Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
% of patients achieving the collection of ≥5×10^6 CD34+ cells/kg
Proportion of patients who achieve the ideal collection value (CD34+ cells ≥5×10\^6/kg) after a single collection
Secondary outcomes
% of patients achieving the collection of ≥2×10^6 CD34+ cells/kg
Comparison of the cumulative proportion of patients who achieve the target collection value (CD34+ cells ≥2×10\^6/kg) between the EAP and CG regimens; the proportion of patients who achieve the ideal collection value.
CD34+ cells and the average number of collections
Comparison of the total amount of CD34+ cells collected and the average number of collections between the EAP and CG regimens.
Adverse Rvents (AEs)
Comparison of hematological and non-hematological adverse reactions between the EAP and CG regimens.
% of patients who use Plerixafor
Comparison of the proportion of patients who add Plerixafor between the EAP and CG regimens.
