View clinical trials related to Smoldering Multiple Myeloma.
Filter by:Selinexor is a drug that has been approved in the treatment of patients with symptomatic multiple myeloma. The standard of care for patients with Smoldering Multiple Myeloma remains observation, but there are numerous clinical trials investigating interventions to delay progression to multiple myeloma and prevent or delay disease related outcomes. A subset of patients with intermediate or high risk smoldering multiple myeloma have a much higher risk of progressive to multiple myeloma, while the low risk smoldering myeloma patient population has a much lower risk. This is a clinical trial investigating the use of low-dose selinexor in patients with intermediate to high-risk smoldering multiple myeloma. The investigators hypothesize that the use of selinexor in intermediate to high risk smoldering myeloma patients will help to delay progression of disease to symptomatic multiple myeloma.
The purpose of this study is to test the anti-cancer activity of Teclistamab and to compare it with Lenalidomide + Dexamethasone combination in people with high risk smoldering multiple myeloma. People with smoldering multiple myeloma (SMM) usually do not have symptoms but are at risk for progressing to active multiple myeloma (MM). Multiple Myeloma is a cancer of the plasma cells, which are an important part of the immune system. Patients with active multiple myeloma generally require treatment but there are currently no approved therapies for smoldering multiple myeloma. The names of the study drugs involved in this study are: - Teclistamab - Lenalidomide (also called Revlimid) - Dexamethasone (also called Decadron)
The key aim of the study is to define the two biologically and clinically distinct entities: progressive versus stable myeloma precursor conditions.
This clinical trial investigates the effect of non-chemotherapeutic interventions in patients with multiple myeloma. Non-chemotherapeutic interventions such as physical activity and nutritional interventions (e.g., modifications in diet) have been shown to positively affect the immune system and improve overall quality of life. Another purpose of this study is for researchers to learn how the addition of a beta-blocker (propranolol) to the standard treatment regimen in patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma affects immune response and quality of life. A study from the Mayo Clinic looked at multiple myeloma patients who were on a beta-blocker while undergoing chemotherapy and found that the use of a beta-blocker resulted in improved patient survival outcomes. Non-chemotherapeutic treatment options may help decrease symptoms and improve quality of life for patients with multiple myeloma.
The primary aim is to establish a prospective cohort of patients with plasma cell disorders (PCDs). All of the hospitalized PCD patients who are willing to sign the informed consent form (ICF) will be included in this study. Clinical characteristics, treatment options and responses will be collected. Peripheral blood, bone marrow aspirate and urine samples before and after the treatment will banked for future research. Our team will focus on the clinical and pathological features of PCDs, the correlation between the minimal residual disease (MRD) status and prognosis, and the role of Tumor Microenvironment (TME) in the pathogenesis and progress of PCDs.
This study examines the quality of life in patients with monoclonal gammopathy of unknown significance and smoldering multiple myeloma. Collecting quality of life information from patients may help doctors learn more about the most common symptoms and concerns patients with monoclonal gammopathy of unknown significance and smoldering multiple myeloma may have.
This is a single-center, single arm, phase I study designed to determine the safety and find the recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) or maximum dose level (MTD) of Belantamab Mafodotin in patients with high-risk smoldering multiple myeloma. The study will have a dose-finding part and a dose-expansion part. The maximum number of enrolled patients will be 30 with 18 patients for the dose-finding part and 12 patients for the dose-expansion part. Once we determine the MTD or RP2D in the dose-finding part, we will enroll and treat 12 additional patients at the MTD or RP2D in the expansion part. Efficacy will be assessed through the overall response rate (ORR) at the end of the study. With the limited number of patients for the dose-expansion part, we will not have formal futility monitoring rule.
Observational clinical trial recruiting Smouldering Myeloma patients (SMM) or potential SMM patients. Study involves collecting blood and bone marrow samples to determine the features of the tumour genome and BM microenvironment, including immune dysfunction that are key drivers of progression from precursor conditions (MGUS and SMM) to MM.
This phase II trial studies the effects of leflunomide in treating African-American and European-American patients with high-risk smoldering multiple myeloma. Leflunomide is used to decrease the body's immune response and may delay the symptoms of multiple myeloma in patients of African-American and European decent.
Background: Multiple myeloma (MM) is a tumor in which malignant plasma cells accumulate in the bone marrow. It can cause organ damage and is not curable. Researchers want to see if a combination drug treatment can help. Objective: To try to prevent or slow down developing MM and its associated organ damage by treating it while still in the smoldering phase with a mix of drugs known as DKd. Eligibility: People ages 18 and older with smoldering MM that is at high risk of converting to symptomatic MM. Design: Participants will be screened with: Medical history Physical exam Blood and urine tests Bone survey (x-rays of their bones) Spinal magnetic resonance imaging Bone marrow biopsy (a needle is used to remove bone marrow from their hipbone) Electrocardiogram (to check heart function) Lung function tests Treatment will be given in 28-day cycles. Participants will get daratumumab by injection under the skin. They will get carfilzomib intravenously (IV) through a tube inserted in a vein. They will get dexamethasone as oral tablets or as an IV. They will get all 3 drugs for 8 or 12 cycles. Then they will get daratumumab alone for up to 24 cycles. They may have stem cells collected. Participants will have frequent study visits. At these visits, they will repeat some screening tests. They will complete questionnaires. They will have imaging scans. For these scans, they may receive an oral or IV contrast. Participants will have a follow-up visit 30 days after treatment ends. Then they will have visits every 3-12 months. They will be followed on this study for life.
