Time before diarrhea
Time interval from the start of treatment to the first diarrhea
Time frame: Up to 3 months after enrollment
Duration of the diarrhea
The time between the start of diarrhea and the last diarrhea.

Hematological response at 3 and 6 months after enrollment
Hematological response is evaluated according to the difference between Serum free light chains and immunofixation electrophoresis.
Time frame: Up to 6 months after enrollment
Involved organ response(heart)at 3 and 6 months after enrollment

SF-36 score at 1 month, 3 month and 6 month
The general health condition is evaluated by the 36-item Short-Form. The SF-36 measure consists of 36 items that address the following 8 dimensions: physical pain, mental health, general health, emotional role functioning, social functioning, vitality, and physical and role functioning. Each dimension receives a final score between 0 and 100, with 100 representing the best performance.
Time frame: Up to 6 months after enrollment
GSRS score at 1 month, 3 month and 6 month
The Gastrointestinal Symptoms are evaluated by Gastrointestinal Symptom Rating Scale. The minimum and maximum values is 15 and 105, respectively. The scores are calculated by taking the mean of the items completed within an individual scale, with higher scores indicating greater severity of symptoms.
