Filter by:This phase I trial studies the best dose of CB-839 HCl when given together with carfilzomib and dexamethasone in treating patients with multiple myeloma that has come back or does not respond to previous treatment. CB-839 HCl and carfilzomib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as dexamethasone work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving CB-839 HCl, carfilzomib, and dexamethasone may work better in treating patients with multiple myeloma.
In this protocol, the investigators hypothesize that the combination of intravenous busulfan and melphalan with carfilzomib will be an effective preparative regimen with acceptable toxicity for participants with multiple myeloma who are candidates for autologous stem cell transplantation. To test this hypothesis, the investigators designed a phase I/II trial combining IV busulfan 130 mg/m2 plus melphalan 140 mg combined with escalating doses of carfilzomib ranging from 20 mg/m2 to 45 mg/m2. These results will be compared with the center's historical controls of participants treated with melphalan, busulfan and bortezomib.
This trial studies how well strength training works in improving bone health, pain, and quality of life in patients with multiple myeloma. Weekly physical activity may improve bone recovery, reduce pain, and increase quality of life in patients with multiple myeloma.
This is a randomized, 2-arm phase II, placebo-controlled, multi-center study, where the investigators aim to evaluate whether the reported benefits of denosumab, delay of SRE and decrease in myeloma growth promotion, reduce the risk of progression of high-risk SMM and of early 'SLiM CRAB' myeloma into active, symptomatic CRAB positive myeloma or serological progression. In addition, tolerability of long-term treatment will be assessed.
The best induction protocol to eligible multiple myeloma patients was not established. Combination of three drugs demonstrated better outcomes than two drugs combo. Nevertheless, until now four drugs combo did not prove gain against three drugs One of the three drugs protocol studied as induction was CTD scheme (cyclophosphamide+ thalidomide+dexamethasone). Daratumumab has a novel mechanism of action that results in enhanced activity in combination with existing standards of care, including first-generation novel agents, such as thalidomide, as well as other therapeutics. Considerable responses have been observed in a cohort of heavily pretreated patients with relapsed/refractory MM. The use of a treatment combination with monoclonal antibody associated with immunomodulator (in a four drug combo) can lead to a improvement in response rates and in survival, reflects on a better free time interval. This trial will represent a new option of treatment with a combination of anti CD38 monoclonal antibody (DARATUMUMAB) as induction regimen with CTD protocol (four drug combination). And It use as consolidation and maintenance to give better immunomodulatory response and extended survival and disease control.
This study will evaluate the safety and preliminary efficacy of venetoclax when combined with lenalidomide and dexamethasone for participants with newly diagnosed, active t(11;14) positive multiple myeloma (MM). This study will consist of 2 parts: Part 1 Dose Escalation and Part 2 Dose Expansion.
This research study is studying a cancer vaccine called Dendritic Cell/MM Fusion vaccine (DC/MM vaccine) in combination with nivolumab, as a possible treatment for multiple myeloma (MM). The drugs involved in this study are: - Dendritic Cell/MM Fusion vaccine (DC/MM vaccine) - Nivolumab, an immunotherapy drug
[18F]Florbetaben PET/CT imaging will noninvasively assess amyloid deposition in systemic amyloidosis.
To describe patterns of adherence and pilot baseline measures to investigate factors associated with lower adherence to lenalidomide in older adults with myeloma.
This study will collect bone marrow (BM) aspirate samples from patients with relapsed refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM) prior to the start of a new treatment regimen for the purposes of prospectively measuring single-cell mass accumulation rate (MAR) as a biomarker of patient response to that regimen. The primary study objective is to explore whether the single-cell MAR biomarker can predict patient response in RRMM patients. In order to enable this primary objective, two patient cohorts will be required. First, a small vanguard cohort of patients with treatment naïve disease to define drug concentrations used for testing, and second, the main RRMM patient cohort. Data will be collected to estimate the biomarker's predictive properties (accuracy, sensitivity, specificity), and to support improvement of the MAR biomarker through additional research and discovery within the study dataset.
