Seeking Advice on Cancer Treatment Regimens

I got diagnosed 5 months ago and I'm about to start treatment. My doctor mentioned bortezomib as an option. I'm trying to understand the different regimens like VCD, CyBorD, etc. Can anyone explain the differences in simple terms and which one worked best for them? Thanks

I did a lot of research and talked to my doc, and we decided on VCD because it seemed like the best option for me. I've had some hair loss, but who needs hair when you're kicking cancer's butt!!

So I've been on the CyBorD regimen for a 5 months now and it's been okay, I guess.
