ABSTRACT

Introduction:

The annual prevalence of Multiple Myeloma in patients aged between 65 and 74 years old is 31 cases for every 100 000 people and increases to 46 cases per 100 000 people in patients older than 75 years old.

Objectives:

To clinically characterize patients with multiple myeloma treated at a referral center in the state of Rio Grande do Norte, Brazil, and to estimate their survival.

Methods:

Retrospective cohort study. For data collection, secondary sources listed in the cadastral database and complementation with data records was used. The descriptive analysis was performed by using the Epi Info program, version 3.5.2 and the survival analysis used Statistic Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) software version 22.

Results:

Out of the 39 patients studied, 17 (43.6 percent) were male, and 22 (56.4 percent) were female, with an average age of 66.3 years old. The main medication therapeutic regimen was the combination of Cyclophosphamide, Thalidomide, and Dexamethasone (CTD), as the most medical prescription used in 63.6 percent of cases. Only 38.5 percent had other comorbidities and 46.2 percent of patients developed plasmacytoma. In the International Staging System (ISS), stage III prevailed with 30.8 percent among the evaluated patients. The cumulative probability of global survival rate showed a disease with a survival rate of 50 percent of the sample in about 36 months (three years) after diagnosis is confirmed(AU)
RESUMEN

Introducción:

la prevalencia anual de mieloma múltiple en pacientes entre 65 y 74 años de edad es de 31 casos por cada 100 000 personas y aumenta a 46 casos por 100 000 personas en pacientes mayores de 75 años.

Objetivos:

caracterizar clínicamente a los pacientes con mieloma múltiple tratados en un centro de referencia en el estado de Rio Grande do Norte, Brasil, y estimar su supervivencia.

Métodos:

estudio de cohorte, retrospectivo. Para la recopilación de datos, se utilizaron fuentes secundarias de la base de datos catastral y complementación con registros de datos. El análisis descriptivo se realizó mediante el programa Epi Info, versión 3.5.2 y el análisis de supervivencia del software estadístico SPSS 22.

Resultados:

de los 39 pacientes estudiados, 17 (43,6 por ciento) eran varones y 22 (56,4 por ciento), mujeres; con una edad promedio de 66,3 años. El principal régimen terapéutico de medicación fue la combinación de ciclofosfamida, talidomida y dexametasona (CTD), como la prescripción médica más utilizada en el 63,6 por ciento de los casos. Solo el 38,5 por ciento tenía otras comorbilidades y el 46,2 por ciento de los pacientes desarrolló plasmocitoma. En el International Staging System (ISS), prevaleció la etapa III (30,8 por ciento de los pacientes evaluados). La probabilidad acumulada de supervivencia global mostró una enfermedad con una tasa de supervivencia del 50 por ciento de la muestra en aproximadamente 36 meses (tres años) después de que se confirmó el diagnóstico(AU)
