    Hi

    I am currently on a clinical trial called Cardimon. The trial uses Carfilzomib with cyclophosphamide and Dexamethasone to start with. I have been on it a year now. After induction you get randomised to either have a sct or further chemo. Induction is CCD twice a week for 4 cycles each cycle being 4 weeks with the 4th week being a rest week. I was randomised for further chemo but had a stem cell harvest if needed in the future. The second phase is consolidation, which is the same as induction. By this time I was lucky enough to have had a full response (remission). Current situation is that I am now on the Maintenance phase of the trial which is Carfilzomib with Dexamethasone but now only once a week, this lasts for 18 months. I have just finished cycle 2 and a still in full remission.
