Active clinical trials for "Multiple Myeloma"

This phase II MATCH treatment trial identifiesay block the protein tyrosine kinase WEE1 the effects of AZD1775 in patients whose cancer has a genetic change called BRCA mutation. AZD1775 may block a protein called WEE1, which may be needed for growth of cancer cells that express BRCA mutations. Researchers hope to learn if AZD1775 will shrink this type of cancer or stop its growth.

This phase II MATCH treatment trial identifies the effects of crizotinib in patients whose cancer has a genetic change called ALK rearrangement. Crizotinib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking the ALK protein which may be needed for cell growth. Researchers hope to learn if crizotinib will shrink this type of cancer or stop its growth.

This phase II MATCH treatment trial identifies the effects of VS-6063 (defactinib) in patients whose cancer has a genetic change called NF2 mutation. Defactinib may block a protein called FAK, which may be needed for cancer cell growth when NF2 mutations are present. Researchers hope to learn if defactinib will shrink this type of cancer or stop its growth.

This phase II MATCH treatment trial identifies the effects of trametinib in patients whose cancer has genetic changes called GNAQ or GNA11 mutations. Trametinib may block proteins called MEK1 and MEK2, which may be needed for cancer cell growth when GNAQ or GNA11 mutations are present. Researchers hope to learn if trametinib will shrink this type of cancer or stop its growth.

The purpose of this study to determine if the addition of daratumumab to bortezomib + lenalidomide + dexamethasone (VRd) will improve overall minimal residual disease (MRD) negativity rate compared with VRd alone.

Recent prospective multicenter phase II study assessed the efficacy and tolerability of lower dose lenalidomide (15mg) and dexamethasone (20mg) in frail patients with relapsed or refractory MM. The overall response rate was 71% including complete remission of 15%. Median progression free survival and overall survival were 8.9 and 30.5 months. In addition, grade 3-4 toxicities such as neutropenia, and infections were reduced. This study supported that lower dose lenalidomide may be optimal stating dose for elderly patients with frailty.

Belantamab mafodotin (GSK2857916) is a first in class, antibody dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC) enhanced, humanized immunoglobulin G1 (IgG1) antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) which binds specifically to B cell maturation antigen (BCMA) expressed on tumor cells of all participants with multiple myeloma. This is a Phase 1, open label, dose escalation study to investigate safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, immunogenicity and clinical activity of GSK2857916 when given as monotherapy (Part 1) or given as combination therapy (Part 2). Dose escalation will follow a 3+3 design.

This study will assess the safety and tolerability of denosumab in smoldering multiple myeloma subjects as well to see if denosumab can reduce subjects' risk of getting multiple myeloma.

This study will find the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of CYNK-001 which contain NK cells derived from human placental CD34+ cells and culture-expanded. CYNK-001 cells will be given post Autologous Stem Cell Transplant (ASCT). The safety of this treatment will be evaluated, and researchers will want to learn if NK cells will help in treating Multiple Myeloma.

Multiple myeloma (MM) is an incurable malignancy and accounts for 1 percentage (%) of all cancers and for 10% of all hematologic malignancies. Participants with relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM) will be included in this study, to evaluate the efficacy and safety of belantamab mafodotin (GSK2857916) monotherapy. Participants will be treated with belantamab mafodotin monotherapy until disease progression (PD) or unacceptable toxicity and will be followed for Progression Free Survival and Overall survival. The participants will be randomized to receive either frozen belantamab mafodotin at the dose of 2.5 milligram per kilogram (mg/kg) or 3.4 mg/kg administered Intravenously (IV). There will be an independent cohort of participants who will receive a lyophilized configuration of belantamab mafodotin. For participants who discontinued from the study other than Progressive disease (PD), disease evaluation will continue to be performed at 3-week intervals until confirmed PD, death, start of a new anticancer treatment, withdrawal of consent, or end of the study whichever occurs first.
