  4. No active malignancy with a lower life expectancy than myeloma
  5. Female patient who have a positive serum pregnancy test during the screening period.
  6. Female patient who is lactating during the screening period but are not willing to stop lactating prior to the first treatment cycle starts.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Progression Free Survival (PFS)

Overall survival (OS)
Median OS of Arm A vs Arm B (MRD guided) defined as the time from randomization to death of any cause following 2.L treatment.
Minimal residual disease negativity after first line treatment
The number of participants who achieve MRD negativity measured by Euroflow NGF at 30-45 after consolidation therapy has ended

Secondary Outcome Measures

Time-to-next treatment
Time from end of first line treatment to start of 3.L therapy
Minimal residual disease negativity during second line treatment
The proportion of patients who achieve MRD negativity during 2.L treatment, monitored by MRD Euroflow NGF at 6 and 18 months in arm A and after achieving CR in arm B (first MRD testing after 6 months).
Health-related quality of life (HRQOL)
Patient reported outcome HRQOL forms will be filled out by patients at defined time points during the study and finally at relapse after 2.L therapy.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The REMNANT study will evaluate whether treating minimal residual disease (MRD) relapse after first line treatment prolongs progression free survival and overall survival for myeloma patients versus treating relapse after first line treatment at progressive disease. To establish a homogenous group of MRD negative patients after first line treatment including autologous stem cell transplantation, patients are enrolled at diagnosis and treated with Norwegian standard of care first line treatment. MRD negative patients will move on to the randomized part.
Detailed Description
391 patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma eligible for high dose therapy with autologous stem cell support will be included in the phase II part of the study and receive standard of care first line treatment according to Norwegian national guidelines; bortezomib- lenalidomide - dexamethasone for 4 pre-transplant induction and 4 post-transplant consolidation cycles (all 21-d cycles). After induction patients will undergo tandem or single ASCT, depending on toxicity and response to first ASCT. The primary endpoint of the phase 2 part of the study is the number of patients who achieve MRD negative (Euroflow NGF 10 -5 ) complete response 30-45 days post consolidation. Patients (176) achieving MRD negative complete response will be randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to receive second line treatment at MRD reappearance (arm A) or at progressive disease as defined by the IMWG criteria (arm B). Randomization will be stratified by R-ISS stage at diagnosis and single vs tandem ASCT. Patients in arm A will be followed with MRD assessment every 4 month and start second line treatment at loss of MRD negative CR. Patients in arm B will be followed up by standard criteria and start second line treatment at progressive disease. Both arms will receive the same 2.L treatment; carfilzomib - dexamethasone - daratumumab. (all 28-d cycles) Second line treatment will continue until disease progression, unacceptable AEs or patient withdrawal. In arm A MRD Euroflow will be assessed after 6 and 18 months of 2L therapy. In arm B MRD Euroflow will be assessed if >CR is achieved but not before 6 months of 2 L therapy, and again after 12 consecutive months.
