Active clinical trials for "Multiple Myeloma"

This registry is a prospective, multi-center, observational study and will collect safety data on multiple myeloma adult patients who have received at least two prior therapies and take IMNOVID (pomalidomide) as part of standard care. The registry will remain open until 500 patients will have received at least 3 cycles of pomalidomide. All patients registered will be followed for up to 3 years after the informed consent date or until death or withdrawal of consent. During this time the incidence of second primary malignancies (SPM), overall survival and any occurrence of a pregnancy will be assessed.

The purpose of this study is to learn more about how a drug commonly used to treat multiple myeloma can affect the heart. In this study, the investigators will learn whether a drug called how a drug (called bortezomib, or Velcade) receive for multiple myeloma affects the heart. Bortezomib is part of the standard treatment and its effects on multiple myeloma is not being studied here. The investigators want to learn whether damage occurs to the heart after taking bortezomib for multiple myeloma, whether it is reversible, and we can predict damage to the heart before it occurs.

The purpose of this study is to acquire information on the usage, effectiveness, safety, and levels of health care resource utilization associated with Velcade therapy in recurrent and refractory multiple myeloma patients who are initiating Velcade and various combination therapies within the approved indication in a naturalistic setting.

The primary objective of the study is to assess efficacy and safety of different prophylactic or therapeutic antithrombotic approaches in patients with hematologic neoplasms and platelet count <50 x109/L, including unfractionated or low molecular weight heparin, fondaparinux, anti-vitamin K agents, antiplatelet agents, novel oral anticoagulants, fibrinolytic agents, with or without a policy of platelet transfusion. Cases with arterial or venous thromboembolism managed with observation or use of vena cava filters in patients with venous thromboembolism will be included too.

Objective of this study is to characterize the steady-state pharmacokinetics (PK) of thalidomide when given orally as monotherapy to subjects with multiple myeloma.

Multicentre, prospective, observational, open-label, single arm, post-marketing study intended to record Lenalidomide/Dexamethasone treatment data from patients with relapsed/refractory Multiple Myeloma (rrMM) treated under the settings defined by the standard clinical practice and approved Summary of Product Characteristics (SmPC).

Overall survival of multiple myeloma (MM) patients has increased significantly due to the availability of the new drugs. Moreover, since MM is an incurable disease, patients are exposed to repeated lines of therapy with different agents. It is therefore increasingly important to monitor the long-term side-effects of treatments. In the present study we focused on ocular disorders. This is an observational study aiming to assess the prevalence of ocular disorders in 100 patients on treatment or follow-up for MM.

The consortium aims to commercialise the MMpredictor as a personalised medicine tool that predicts the most effective treatment strategy for individual Multiple Myeloma (MM) patients. MM is the second most common form of blood cancer contributing to 15% of all blood cancers and ~1,5% and 2% of all cancer deaths annually in the EU and US, respectively. Patients show a large variability in treatment response and side effects due to tumour heterogeneity and the patient's intrinsic characteristics. Therefore, not every treatment will be suitable for each patient, and treatment strategies are often based on trial-and-error. The availability of multiple (>20) treatment options complicates treatment decision-making even more. With the current development of many more promising treatments, there is an urgent unmet clinical need for a diagnostic assay that supports personalised cancer treatment in order to improve patient health outcomes, prevent side effects and reduce healthcare costs. SkylineDx has previously developed the MMprofiler, a microarray-based diagnostic test that can subtype MM patients and reliably predict MM patient survival (prognosis). In this project, the test's clinical value will be expanded to include the prediction of treatment effectiveness in individual patients based on Gene Expression Profiling. An addendum for new intended use will be filed to the current in vitro diagnostic (IVD) registration, while renaming the test to MMpredictor. The project will also focus on positioning the test as a cost-effective IVD test for personalised medicine, that will increase health outcome and quality of life of patients and reduce healthcare costs. The consortium consists of a life science SME specialised in molecular diagnostics, clinical centres with world renowned KOLs, a leading health economic institute, and a European MM patient advocacy organisation combining all the required complementary expertise to successfully bring the MMpredictor to market.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the real world effectiveness and safety of ixazomib in combination with lenalidomide and dexamethasone (IRd) in patients with relapsed and/or refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM), under conditions of standard medical care. In addition, an exploratory study of biomarkers will be conducted.
