Filter by:In the Netherlands, the standard treatment for multiple myeloma is a combination of different medicines named daratumumab-lenalidomide-dexamethasone, abbreviated as Dara-Rd. In many patients this treatment results in suppressing the disease for a long time. The treatment is continued until it is not effective anymore and the disease progresses. But until now it is unknown whether continuous therapy also leads to prolonging life. In addition, there are concerns about side effects, leading to a reduced quality of life, the development of severe toxicity that remains, which hampers subsequent therapy, and high costs due to prolonged treatment. There are indications that temporarily stopping treatment is safe, leading to fewer side effects and allows recovering from toxicity or damage due to treatment. This may improve the quality of life.
Despite recent therapeutic advances, multiple myeloma (MM) remains an incurable disease. Although survival has improved, there are nevertheless diminishing durations of response to each subsequent line of therapy. This highlights the need for further therapeutic innovation. BCMA-targeting CAR-T cells show impressive response rates; however, their median duration of response is disappointing. The investigators propose that CS1(SLAMF7)-targeting CAR-T cells will fill a gap in the MM armamentarium. CS1 is an attractive target in MM because it is expressed in most patients. Elotuzumab (Empliciti®), an approved anti-CS1 antibody, has proven the clinical efficacy of this target. CAR-T cells are an ideal modality to target CS1, given that two approved treatments, ide-cel (idecabtagene vicleucel, AbecmaTM) and cilta-cel (ciltacabtagene autoleucel, Carvykti™), have proven the potential for cellular immunotherapy in MM. The investigators are testing the safety and preliminary anti-myeloma efficacy of WS-CART-CS1, a CAR-T cell therapy targeting CS1.
This is a multicenter, single arm, open-label, Phase 2 study in high risk smoldering myeloma patients. The primary objective is to determine the efficacy of Elranatamab in patients with previously untreated high-risk SMM. The key-secondary objective is to determine the safety of Elranatamab in patients with previously untreated high-risk SMM.
Currently, daratumumab, lenalidomide, and dexamethasone are given continuously (non-stop). Some recent observations suggest that stopping daratumumab after about a year and a half of treatment may work just as well as giving it continuously with lenalidomide and dexamethasone. This study is being done to answer the question: is less daratumumab treatment as good as more?
An open label, dose exploratory clinical study to evaluate the safety, efficacy, and pharmacokinetics of OriCAR-017 in R/RMM
This phase II trial compares iberdomide maintenance therapy to disease monitoring for improving survival in patients who have received idecabtagene vicleucel (a type of chimeric antigen receptor T-cell [CAR-T] therapy) for multiple myeloma. The usual approach after treatment with idecabtagene vicleucel is to monitor the multiple myeloma without giving myeloma medications. There is currently no medication approved specifically for use after idecabtagene vicleucel treatment. Upon administration, iberdomide modifies the immune system and activates immune cells called T-cells, which could enhance the effectiveness of idecabtagene vicleucel. Iberdomide may keep multiple myeloma under control for longer than the usual approach (disease monitoring) after idecabtagene vicleucel, and may help multiple myeloma patients live longer.
This trial is an adaptive platform trial. The structure of the protocol allows the trial to evolve over time. Multiple investigational arms will be included within the trial under a Master Protocol (MP). These investigational arms may be added as appendices at different times depending on whether they are trial-ready and whether accrual in the trial will support another arm. Accrual to an arm will terminate in accord with the arm's appendix to the Master Protocol. The purpose of this proposed structure is to support the recurrent research challenge of efficiently evaluating what is the best therapy for a particular patient.
Positron Emission Tomography - Computed Tomography (PET-CT) using fluorine-18 fluorodeoxyglucose is a functional imaging diagnostic tool which is widely used In several neoplastic conditions, at initial staging, for restaging in suspected disease relapse and for assessing the response to treatment. Most patients with multiple myeloma (MM) exhibit a high-glycolytic activity rate and therefore they are FOG-avid, especially at the disease relapse. The priceless value of 18F-FOG PET-CT in the therapeutic assessment for several treatment schemes, including aSCT, has been highlighted by several studies: particularly, the occurrence of negative PET-CT after a double aSCT in MM patients with clinical complete response or very good partial response positively correlates with favourable PFS and overall survival (OS). likewise, persistence of 18F-FDG avid disease in MM patients achieving a clinical complete response constitutes a poor prognostic factor. Primary objective of this prospective, observational, non-pharmacological, multicentric study is to evaluate the role of 18F-FDG PET-CT for assessing early response after 6 months of treatment with daratumumab in patients with .relapsed/refractory MM.
This phase II trial compares the combination of selinexor, daratumumab, Velcade (bortezomib), and dexamethasone (Dara-SVD) to the usual treatment of daratumumab, lenalidomide, bortezomib, and dexamethasone (Dara-RVD) in treating patients with high-risk newly diagnosed multiple myeloma. Selinexor is in a class of medications called selective inhibitors of nuclear export (SINE). It works by blocking a protein called CRM1, which may keep cancer cells from growing and may kill them. Daratumumab is in a class of medications called monoclonal antibodies. It binds to a protein called CD38, which is found on some types of immune cells and cancer cells, including myeloma cells. Daratumumab may block CD38 and help the immune system kill cancer cells. Bortezomib blocks several molecular pathways in a cell and may cause cancer cells to die. It is a type of proteasome inhibitor and a type of dipeptidyl boronic acid. Dexamethasone is in a class of medications called corticosteroids. It is used to reduce inflammation and lower the body's immune response to help lessen the side effects of chemotherapy drugs. Lenalidomide is in a class of medications called immunomodulatory agents. It works by helping the bone marrow to produce normal blood cells and by killing abnormal cells in the bone marrow. The drugs daratumumab, lenalidomide, bortezomib, dexamethasone and selinexor are already approved by the FDA for use in myeloma. But selinexor is not used until myeloma comes back (relapses) after initial treatment. Giving selinexor in the initial treatment may be a superior type of treatment for patients with high-risk newly diagnosed multiple myeloma.
The purpose of this study is to determine the recommended dose and schedule, and evaluate the safety and preliminary efficacy of alnuctamab in combination with mezigdomide in participants with relapsed and/or refractory multiple myeloma.
