I only had cyclophosphamide one time, before my transplant. I have been on Darzalex and Pomalyst for over 6 years.

Welcome Mary💕I live in St. Albert, Alberta. My husband was on cyclophosphamide, velcade and dex for induction before stem cell transplant. He went on revlimid for maintenance. They do not use cyclophosphamide as much anymore. Hope you are doing well💕

It's important to discuss with your doctor how long this specific regimen might work for you and what signs to watch for indicating a need for change.
