Filter by:The purpose of this study is to evaluate the tolerability and safety of subcutaneous (SC) delivery of co-formulated daratumumab and rHuPH20 preparation (DARA SC) in Japanese participants with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma (MM).
In Korea, VMP is most commonly used as frontline treatment in patients with newly diagnosed MM who were ineligible for high-dose therapy. Recently National Insurance began to reimburse the second-line LD when the bortezomib-containing treatment failed to salvage the patients. Patients who have relapsed MM after exposure to the above agents and have progressive disease have a short life expectancy. Third-line therapy is needed for retrieving the patients hereafter. And substantial proportion of patients will attain an advanced age. To examine if time to disease progression is maintained and tolerability is improved with lower dexamethasone dose, the dose of dexamethasone is reduced when at least a minimal response is achieved after 3 months of treatment with the initial dose. Three months later (6 months after the initial treatment), the response remains in stable disease, 2nd dose reduction (dexamethasone 10mg or prednisone 50mg) will be carried out.
This research study is studying a drug as a possible treatment for Monoclonal Gammopathy of Unknown Significance (MGUS) or Smoldering Multiple Myeloma (SMM). The drug involved in this study is: -Daratumumab
The primary purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy of daratumumab when combined with Velcade (bortezomib) and dexamethasone (DVd) to that of Velcade and dexamethasone (Vd), in terms of progression free survival (PFS) in Chinese participants with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma (MM).
Multiple myeloma (MM) is a malignant plasma cell disorder, characterized by the presence of more than 10 % of clonal plasma cells in the bone marrow. Therapeutic intervention is recommended when at least one of the myeloma defining events occurs (CRAB features). Renal impairment (RI) is one of the most common complications of MM, accounting for 20-30 % of MM patients at diagnosis and 40-50% of patients during the course of their disease. To date, there is no defined consensus for the management of myeloma patients with renal failure. It is then of clinical importance to better considering available therapeutic options to improve responses and survival of these patients.
Oral and intestinal mucositis are major risk factors for the occurrence of fever during neutropenia and bloodstream infections after intensive chemo- and radiotherapy. These complications often require dose reductions or cause delay of treatment, and thereby interfere with optimal anticancer treatment. Currently, there are no effective strategies to prevent or treat mucositis and the related complications. The pro-inflammatory cytokine interleukin-1β (IL-1β) has shown pivotal in the pathogenesis of mucositis and recently, it has been established in murine models that IL-1 inhibition significantly ameliorates chemotherapy-induced intestinal mucositis. In this phase IIa study the safety, maximum tolerated dose and efficacy of anakinra, a recombinant human IL-1 receptor antagonist, will be determined in adult patients with multiple myeloma who receive high-dose melphalan (HDM) in the preparation for an autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (ASCT) and are at high risk for experiencing mucositis and fever during neutropenia (FN). After establishing the optimal dose, a pivotal double-blind randomized placebo-controlled multicenter phase IIb trial will be planned to establish efficacy.
This research study is studying a combination of targeted therapies as a possible treatment for multiple myeloma (MM). The drugs involved in this study are: - Elotuzumab - Nivolumab - Pomalidomide - Dexamethasone
Multiple myeloma (MM), a plasma cell disorder, is the second most common hematologic malignancy in the U.S. No standard curative therapy has yet been found. A variety of therapeutic measures including high dose melphalan, induction therapy, and continuous therapy have been used but the goal of complete response without relapse has not been achieved. More active treatment regimens and better tools for response assessment are needed.
The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of pembrolizumab (MK-3475) in combination with daratumumab in participants with relapsed refractory multiple myeloma (rrMM). The primary outcome measure for this study is the assessment of Objective Response Rate (ORR) in participants with rrMM.
Determine the progression free survival of high-risk or relapsed Multiple Myeloma (MM) patients undergoing non-myeloablative bone marrow allogeneic transplantation (NM-AlloSCT) followed by maintenance therapy with MEDI-551.
