Abstract Novel treatments in multiple myeloma (MM) could influence the incidence of skeletal‐related events (SREs). We aimed to examine the incidence of SRE and the preventive use of osteoclast inhibitors (OIs) in a cohort of MM patients in the era of modern treatment. In this real‐world retrospective study, we included 199 patients with a diagnosis of MM between January 1, 2010, and December 31, 2019, with follow‐up at St. Olavs University Hospital. Data was extracted from The Myeloma Registry of Central Norway. SREs occurred in 46% of patients at baseline and 55.8% during follow‐up. Excluding baseline SREs, the incidence rate was 29 (95% confidence interval: 26–33) per 100 person years. 48% experienced > 1 SRE. The incidence of SREs was highest at baseline followed by a gradual increase in each subsequent line of treatment. The first two years after diagnosis 80% received bisphosphonates (BPs). The proportion of recommended dosage was 46%. Only two cases (1.2%) of symptomatic hypocalcemia and one case (0.6%) of osteonecrosis of the jaw were identified. SREs are still a common problem in an era of novel treatment. Cumulative dosage of BPs was lower than recommended, and treatment with BPs was safe in this population. |
