Arm Description

Venetoclax (400 mg oral [PO], once daily [QD]) administered with pomalidomide (4 mg PO, QD) and dexamethasone (40 mg once weekly [qw]) in 28-day cycles until documented disease progression, documented unacceptable toxicity, withdrawal of consent, or the participant met other criteria for discontinuation per study protocol

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Number of Participants With Adverse Events
An adverse event (AE) is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a patient or clinical investigation participant administered a pharmaceutical product and which does not necessarily have a causal relationship with this treatment. The investigator assessed the relationship of each event to the use of study drug as either reasonable possibility or no reasonable possibility. A serious adverse event (SAE) is an event that results in death, is life-threatening, requires or prolongs hospitalization, results in a congenital anomaly, persistent or significant disability/incapacity or is an important medical event that, based on medical judgment, may jeopardize the participant and may require medical or surgical intervention to prevent any of the outcomes listed above. Treatment-emergent events (TEAEs/TESAEs) are defined as any event that began or worsened in severity after the first dose of study drug. For more details on adverse events please see the Adverse Event section.
Overall Response Rate (ORR)
ORR is defined as the percentage of participants experiencing a stringent complete response (sCR), complete response (CR), very good partial response (VGPR), or partial response (PR) using the International Myeloma Working Group (IMWG) 2016 criteria for disease response and progression. CR= negative immunofixation of serum and urine and disappearance of any soft tissue plasmacytomas, and < 5% plasma cells in bone marrow; sCR= CR + normal serum free light chain (FLC) ratio and absence of clonal cells in bone marrow; VGPR= serum and urine M-protein detectable by immunofixation but not on electrophoresis or ≥ 90% reduction in serum M-protein level + urine M-protein level < 100 mg per 24 hours; PR= ≥ 50% reduction of serum M-protein and reduction in 24-hour urinary M-protein by ≥ 90% or to < 200 mg per 24 hours.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Progression-Free Survival (PFS)
PFS is defined as the number of days from the date of first dose of any study drug to the date of disease progression or death, whichever occurs first. All disease progression was to be included regardless of whether the event occurred during or after the participant was taking any study drug.
Duration of Response (DOR)
DOR for a given participant is defined as the number of days from the date of that participant's first documented response (Partial Response [PR] or better) to the date of first documented disease progression (PD) or death due to multiple myeloma (MM), whichever occurs first. If the participant with a documented response did not have an event of PD and the participant had not died due to MM, the participant's data was to be censored.
Time-to-progression (TTP)
TTP for a given participant is defined as the number of days from the date of first dose to the date of first documented disease progression (PD) or death due to multiple myeloma (MM), whichever occurs first. If the participant did not have an event of PD and the participant had not died due to MM, the participant's data was to be censored.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
This was an open-label, multicenter study designed to evaluate the safety and preliminary efficacy of venetoclax combined with pomalidomide and dexamethasone in participants with relapsed or refractory (R/R) multiple myeloma (MM) who received at least 1 prior line of therapy with documented evidence of progression during or after the participant's last treatment regimen. The study was designed to consist of 2 parts: Part 1 (dose escalation) and Part 2 (dose expansion). For Part 2 the participants were to be divided into 2 cohorts, participants positive for t(11;14) translocation and participants negative for t(11;14) translocation.
Detailed Description
Following communication of the results of the primary progression-free survival (PFS) analysis from the Phase 3 BELLINI study (Study M14-031; NCT02755597), the company-sponsored MM studies were placed on partial clinical hold (PCH) in March 2019 by the United States (US) Food and Drug Administration and enrollment was halted. The sponsor did not pursue release of the PCH for this study; therefore, enrollment was not re-opened. In accordance with the terms of the PCH, participants who were deriving clinical benefit were allowed to continue to receive treatment. One participant was still active in Part 1 of the study when the sponsor decided not to pursue release of the PCH (in January 2020) and, therefore, continued to receive treatment and have regular assessments until disease progression. The study was discontinued when the last participant completed study treatment. No participants were enrolled in Part 2 of the study.
