Filter by:This is a Phase 2 open-label study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of ibrutinib in combination with bortezomib and dexamethasone for patients with relapsed or relapsed and refractory multiple myeloma.
This study, a national, multicenter, observational, ambispective, non-interventional study, will be conducted in French hospitals prescribing pomalidomide and already participating in the ongoing Imnovid registry. This study will add to the registry. Indeed, pomalidomide-prescribing physicians and pharmacists dispensing pomalidomide have to enter into the Imnovid registry all patients who have been prescribed this drug since the date on which it was marketed regardless of the initiation date of pomalidomide or the indication for which it was prescribed.
Consenting patients with multiple myeloma (MM) will be randomly allocated to receive either standard medical treatment (chemotherapy, radiotherapy, pain-killing medication) alone or standard medical treatment plus a brace. Patients will be regularly evaluated in research clinics; the results data will inform the design of a full trial. Information will be collected to inform a list of requirements a centre needs to have in place to run an RCT of these interventions.
This is a randomized, 2-arm phase II, multi-center study to evaluate the overall response rate in newly diagnosed, transplant ineligible patients receiving 9 cycles induction therapy with either KTd or KRd followed by randomization to either carfilzomib maintenance treatment for 12 months or to observation only. Maintenance is given for 12 cycles or progression of disease, whatever occurs first.
The purpose of this study is to find the number of natural killer (NK) cells from non-HLA matched donors that can be safely infused into patients with cancer. NK cells are a form of lymphocytes that defend against cancer cells. NK cells in cancer patients do not work well to fight cancer. In this study, the NK cells are being donated by healthy individuals without cancer who are not "matched" by human leukocyte antigen (HLA) genes to patients. After receiving these NK cells, patients may also be given a drug called ALT803. ALT803 is a protein that keeps NK cells alive, helps them grow in number and supports their cancer-fighting characteristics. HLA-unmatched NK cell infusion is investigational (experimental) because the process has not approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
Platelet concentrates (PCs) characteristics, such as storage duration, ABO compatibility, dose and source, may have an impact on transfusion responses and outcomes. Because of the relative scarcity of PCs the selection of a specific PC for issue to the patient remains a challenging process. Regulatory agencies do not fully address these characteristics in their recommendations for prophylactic transfusions. The aim of the study was to analyse the effect of product-related factors in a real life setting, in order to determine which ones are the most relevant when selecting PCs for patients in prophylactic conditions. Two different endpoints are studied: the corrected count increment and the platelet transfusion time intervals.
This phase II trial studies how well pembrolizumab, lenalidomide, and dexamethasone work in treating patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma that are eligible for stem cell transplant. Monoclonal antibodies, such as pembrolizumab, may interfere with the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as lenalidomide and 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 pembrolizumab, lenalidomide, and dexamethasone may work better in treating patients with multiple myeloma.
The purpose of this study is to determine if the addition of daratumumab to lenalidomide-bortezomib-dexamethasone (RVd) will increase the proportion of participants achieving stringent complete response (sCR), as defined by the International Myeloma Working Group (IMWG) criteria, by the time of completion of post autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) consolidation treatment, compared with RVd alone.
This study aims to realize an economic evaluation of the introduction of Plerixafor in addition to G-CSF and alternative options, in patients with multiple myeloma (MM) who failed or insufficiently mobilize peripheral blood stem and progenitor cells in response to G-CSF alone.
Plasma cell leukaemia is a rare variety of multiple myeloma with a poor prognosis. Plasma cell leukaemia is defined as: at least 2,000 circulating plasma cells per µL for a blood leukocyte count higher than 10,000/µL or 20% of plasma cells for a leukocyte count less than 10,000/µL. Plasma cell leukaemia can be either primary, when it constitutes the first manifestation of the disease, or secondary in the setting of relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma. Primary plasma cell leukaemia (PPL) is a rare disease, representing only 1 to 2% of all cases of multiple myelomas at diagnosis. As the annual incidence of multiple myeloma in France is about 4,000 new cases, an estimated 40 to 80 new cases of PPL would be observed each year. Few data are currently available in the literature concerning the pathophysiology and therapeutic management of PPL, and are derived from retrospective series based small numbers of patients. The prognosis of PPL in response to conventional chemotherapy remains poor with a median survival of 7 to 14 months. However, longer survivals have been obtained with intensive therapy and haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allogeneic or autologous HSCT). The investigators propose to perform a prospective study of the management of patients with PPL under the age of 70 years, in combination with a laboratory study: 12 weeks of induction chemotherapy by liposomal Bortezomib-Dexamethasone-Doxorubicin (PAD) alternating with Bortezomib-Dexamethasone-Cyclophosphamide (VCD) for a total of 4 cycles. Peripheral blood stem cell collection after mobilization by G-CSF will be performed after high-dose Cyclophosphamide chemotherapy. Autologous HSCT conditioned by high-dose Melphalan will be performed during the following month for all responding patients. During the 3 months after this first autologous HSCT, allogeneic HSCT with attenuated conditioning will be proposed in patients under the age of 66 years in complete remission with a suitable donor, and another systematic autologous HSCT will be proposed in all other patients. For all patients not treated by allogeneic HSCT, consolidation/maintenance therapy will be performed 3 months after the second autologous HSCT: 4 quarterly consolidations with Bortezomib-Lenalidomide-Dexamethasone (VRD) with maintenance by 2 months of Lenalidomide between these cycles, for a total duration of one year. The laboratory assessment will consist of blood and bone marrow samples systematically obtained at diagnosis for plasma cell phenotyping by cytometry, cytogenetics, FISH, study of the gene expression profile and SNParray. A DNA bank and plasma bank will be constituted. The investigators also propose to study residual disease by cytometry (after the first autologous HSCT, before and at the end of the consolidation/maintenance phase), as it increasingly appears to have a major impact on survival in multiple myeloma.
