Filter by:This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of hydroxychloroquine when given together with cyclophosphamide, dexamethasone, and sirolimus in treating patients with multiple myeloma that has come back after a period of improvement or does not respond to treatment. Biological therapies, such as hydroxychloroquine, may stimulate the immune system in different ways and stop cancer cells from growing. Sirolimus may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cyclophosphamide and dexamethasone, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving hydroxychloroquine together with sirolimus, cyclophosphamide, and dexamethasone may be a better treatment for multiple myeloma.
The study had the following primary objectives: - Phase 1: to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of once-weekly (QW) carfilzomib and dexamethasone for patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma who have received 1 to 3 prior therapies - Phase 2: to estimate the overall response rate (ORR) for patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma who received 1 to 3 prior therapies treated with carfilzomib and dexamethasone QW at the MTD established in phase 1.
The purpose of this study is to acquire information on the usage, effectiveness, safety, and levels of health care resource utilization associated with Velcade therapy in recurrent and refractory multiple myeloma patients who are initiating Velcade and various combination therapies within the approved indication in a naturalistic setting.
This is a dose finding pilot study to evaluate the safety and determine the maximum tolerated dose of the combination of carfilzomib and cyclophosphamide with dexamethasone (Car-Cy-Dex) prior to autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT) in patients with newly diagnosed transplant eligible multiple myeloma.
The purpose of this trial is to confirm the safety and efficacy of high-dose Melphalan HCL for Injection (Propylene Glycol-Free) as a myeloablative conditioning regimen in multiple myeloma patients (MM) undergoing autologous transplantation.
The purpose of this study is to compare the effect of short-term (2 hours/120 minutes) and long-term (6 hours/360 minutes) schedules of crushed ice therapy (cryotherapy). Patients that receive high dose melphalan for bone marrow transplantation commonly develop significant mouth pain and sores (oral mucositis) unless cryotherapy is utilized. The goal of this study is to scientifically determine (using randomization and a larger sample size) if a short-term schedule is as effective as the standard long-term schedule in preventing, or minimizing the symptoms involved with oral mucositis. The study is also trying to determine the best dose of melphalan and how patient's body breaks down melphalan and will obtain blood through central venous catheter to measure the amount of melphalan in patient's blood at specific times after the melphalan is infused
The purpose of this clinical research study is to find out the effects of a drug called panobinostat (LBH589) when given to people like you with multiple myeloma in combination with the drugs lenalidomide and dexamethasone. The safety of this combination of drugs will also be studied. Your physical state, changes in the state of your multiple myeloma, and laboratory findings taken while on-study will help us decide if panobinostat combined with dexamethasone and lenalidomide is safe and effective. This goal of this study therefore is to determine the activity of the combination of panobinostat thrice weekly every other week, lenalidomide, and weekly dexamethasone in a similar group of subjects. The doses of lenalidomide and dexamethasone will be that which is approved by the FDA for multiple myeloma and you will take each drug at a specific frequency over a 4 week (28 day) period. This period is called a "study cycle".
The purpose of this Phase 1 study is to characterize the pharmacokinetic (PK) and tolerability of oral ixazomib (MLN9708) when administered in combination with lenalidomide and dexamethasone in adult Asian participants with relapsed and/or refractory multiple myeloma.
The purpose of this study is to test safety and anti-tumor activity of BT062 in combination with lenalidomide and dexamethasone to define the best doses for treating patients with relapsed and refractory multiple myeloma.
