Multiple myeloma response following initial therapy.
| Myeloma Response | AA (n=59) | Non-AA (n=59) | p-value |
| Complete Response | 11 | 8 | p=0.617 |
| Very Good Partial Response | 15 | 13 | p=0.829 |
| Partial Response | 27 | 28 | p=1 |
| Minimal Response | 6 | 6 | p=1 |
| Stable Disease | 0 | 4 | p=0.119 |
| Light Chain Response (median) | | | |
| % Decrease in Involved/Uninvolved Serum Free Light Chain Ratio | 87.39 | 92.88 | p=0.187 |
