FAQ: Is there a difference in effectiveness between
subcutaneous and IV Bortenat? Clinical studies have
demonstrated equivalent efficacy between subcutaneous and intravenous
administration of Bortezomib for treating multiple myeloma. The key
difference is safety — subcutaneous administration significantly reduces the
risk of peripheral neuropathy, which is why most cancer centres, including
those in Calgary, have shifted to this route as standard practice. |
