[Treatment of multiple myeloma associated anemia with human recombinant erythropoietin in a hemodialysis patient].

Recombinant human erythropoietin (rHuEPO) was used to treat the anaemia in a hemodialyzed 60 year old man with multiple myeloma requiring chemotherapy; the type of serum M component was IgA kappa. During the 5 months before rHuEPO treatment the patient was given multiple blood transfusions. rHuEPO was started 125 U/kg/week subcutaneously in divided doses after dialysis. After introduction of rHuEPO, blood transfusions were no longer required and haemoglobin concentration increased from 5.2 mmol/l to 6.9 mmol/l after 8 weeks of treatment. We conclude that rHuEPO treatment in haemodialysed patients with multiple myeloma may be safe, well tolerated and clinically effective.
