Objectives: Bortezomib (BTZ) functions as an androgen receptor signalling inhibitor, is used for the treatment of prostate cancer, and has been sanctioned by the United States Food and Drug Administration. The medicinal applications of BTZ are impeded by low solubility, first-pass metabolism, and restricted bioavailability. This study aimed to develop and enhance polylactic acid-co-glycolic acid (PLGA) nanobubbles (NBs) as a sustained-release mechanism for BTZ, thereby augmenting stability and bioavailability.

Background: Real-world data on treatment outcomes for elderly transplant-ineligible patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma are limited. The difference in treatment subsidization in Australia compared with New Zealand enables comparison of bortezomib-cyclophosphamide-dexamethasone (VCd), lenalidomide-bortezomib-dexamethasone (VRd) with Rd maintenance, and continuous Rd.
Methods: Using data from the ANZ Myeloma and Related Diseases Registry, we evaluated 1092 patients over 70 years of age between February 2013 and February 2024.

Daratumumab combined with bortezomib, thalidomide, and dexamethasone (Dara-VTD) is a highly effective induction therapy for newly diagnosed multiple myeloma (NDMM) patients eligible for autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT). However, its impact on stem cell mobilization requires a critical evaluation. This study examines the effects of Dara-VTD on stem cell mobilization and collection outcomes.

Although recent decades have seen continued improvements in survival for patients with multiple myeloma, the disease remains largely incurable, and most patients will experience relapse and/or become refractory to treatment. There thus remains an urgent unmet need for novel treatments, particularly for those patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma. Novel treatment modalities, such as targeted protein degradation, have attracted particular interest due to their ability to expand the range of druggable protein targets in myeloma cells.

Background: Multiple myeloma (MM) is a plasma cell malignant tumor known for its high incidence rate. Bortezomib was the first proteasome inhibitor approved for MM. Many factors can result in bortezomib's adverse events, influencing its continuous treatment.
