SummaryThe patient described here presented with relapsed multiple myeloma progressing after therapy with immunomodulatory agents (thalidomide and lenalidomide) and proteasome inhibitors (bortezomib and carfilzomib). Eventually, the patient achieved an excellent response to the combination of panobinostat, bortezomib and dexamethasone, overcoming resistance to proteasome inhibitors and achieving a sustained VGPR (very good partial remission), which was consolidated with high-dose melphalan and autologous stem-cell transplantation.
