This study aims at evaluating the possible beneficial role of Fenofibrate in attenuating the peripheral neuropathy associated with bortezomib (velcade), lenalidomide (revlimid), and dexamethasone (VRd) regimen in newly diagnosed multiple myeloma patients.The study aims to asses VRd protocol induced peripheral neuropathy through:
1. The implication of National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI-CTCAE, Version 5, 2017) and The use of Neurotoxicity-12 items questionnaire score (Ntx-12) from the validated Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy/Gynecologic Oncology Group "FACT/GOG-Ntx-12 for grading of neuropathy at baseline and by the end of every two VRd cycles.
2. The assessment of biological markers:
Brain -derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) and Neuro-filament light chain (NfL). through comparing two groups: Group one: (Control group; n=22): which will receive 6 cycles of VRd regimen (each cycle will be given every 28 days).
Group two: (Fenofibrate group; n=22): which will receive the same regimen plus Fenofibrate 160 mg once daily.
