Filter by:This multicenter, open-label trial randomized participants with multiple myeloma to a regimen of ibandronate or zoledronate in order to compare the incidence of nephrotoxicity, measured as creatinine clearance (CrCl) reduction greater than (>) 30 percent (%) or an absolute value of 30 milliliters per minute (mL/min) or lower.
we intend to evaluate the association between non-adherence to Lenalidomide in Multiple Myeloma (MM) patients and overall response rates and time to progression (TTP). Adherence will be measured in several ways, including by electronic monitoring, which is the gold standard method.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether surgical treatment, balloon kyphoplasty is more effective compared to conservative treatment alone (sham procedure) when assessing clinical, translational, radiological & patient outcomes in patients with multiple myeloma. Subjects will be recruited to the study if they have VAS score ≥ 6 and has given informed consent to participate in the Melody Study will be randomised to Arm 1 Sham Procedure and Conservative treatment or Arm 2 Balloon Kyphoplasty and Conservative treatment. Subjects recruited to Arm 1 (Sham Procedure and Conservative treatment) can cross over into Arm 2 (Balloon Kyphoplasty and Conservative Treatment) if they have a VAS score ≥ 6 between 8-12 weeks.
The study is designed as a Phase II, multicenter trial of vaccination with Dendritic cell/myeloma fusions with granulocyte macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) adjuvant plus lenalidomide maintenance therapy versus maintenance therapy alone or with GM-CSF following autologous transplant as part of upfront treatment of multiple myeloma (MM). It is hypothesized that the dendritic cell myeloma vaccine will result in improved response in patients with multiple myeloma after autologous Hematopoietic Cell Transplant (HCT).
This phase II clinical trial studies how well personalized natural killer (NK) cell therapy works after chemotherapy and umbilical cord blood transplant in treating patients with myelodysplastic syndrome, leukemia, lymphoma or multiple myeloma. This clinical trial will test cord blood (CB) selection for human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-C1/x recipients based on HLA-killer-cell immunoglobulin-like receptor (KIR) typing, and adoptive therapy with CB-derived NK cells for HLA-C2/C2 patients. Natural killer cells may kill tumor cells that remain in the body after chemotherapy treatment and lessen the risk of graft versus host disease after cord blood transplant.
The goal of this study is to find markers that may help to predict why some patients who have monoclonal gammopathy of unknown significance (MGUS) or smoldering multiple myeloma (SMM) that have no signs or symptoms of disease (asymptomatic) develop multiple myeloma, while others do not. Studying markers such as age, level of proteins in blood, percent of abnormal blood cells in the bone marrow, genes in the abnormal blood cells, and bone abnormalities may help researchers to validate clinical and genomic predictors for future use in clinical practice.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of several combination therapies for Multiple Myeloma. Upon entry into the study, patients will be randomized (assigned by chance) to receive either: Group 1: nivolumab, pomalidomide and dexamethasone OR Group 2: pomalidomide and dexamethasone OR Group 3: nivolumab, elotuzumab, pomalidomide and dexamethasone. Enrollment is closed for all groups.
The purpose of this study is to learn more about ways to prevent or delay relapse of multiple myeloma (MM). This study will determine the best dosing schedule of LBH589 maintenance therapy as well as the safety (side effects) and tolerability of LBH589 maintenance therapy after autologous hematopoietic cell transplant (HCT).
This is a phase II trial using a non-myeloablative cyclophosphamide/ fludarabine/total body irradiation (TBI) preparative regimen with modifications based on factors including diagnosis, disease status, and prior treatment. Single or double unit selected according to current University of Minnesota umbilical cord blood graft selection algorithm.
This was a multicenter, open-label, randomized phase II study which were to enroll 112 newly diagnosed symptomatic multiple myeloma patients in a 1:1 fashion. Patients were to enroll at approximately 20 centers in the United States. Patients were to undergo stem cell mobilization with plerixafor plus Granulocyte Colony Stimulating Factor (G-CSF), according to investigator discretion, after 4 cycles of induction therapy. Study treatment interruption for stem cell collection were not to exceed 30 days. All patients were to receive one additional cycle of study treatment after stem cell collection and then proceed to autologous transplant using melphalan 200mg/m2(140mg/m2 for patients > 70 years), as conditioning. After Autologus Stem Cell Transplant( ASCT), patients still on study were to initiate maintenance therapy within the 60-120 day period following ASCT, provided they have adequate blood count and clinical recovery. Patients in the RVD arm were to initiate maintenance therapy with lenalidomide alone, and patients in RVD-panobinostat arm were to receive lenalidomide + panobinostat maintenance. Lenalidomide were to be dosed orally at 10mg/day continuously in both arms, increasing to 15mg/day after the first 84 day cycle. Panobinostat were to be dosed at 10mg three times a week, every other week. Total planned duration of maintenance therapy were to be 3 years. Patients were to remain on study treatment until they complete the maintenance phase, or until they experience disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, or at the discretion of the Investigator.
