Active clinical trials for "Multiple Myeloma"

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of Ixazomib on inducing osteoblast activation as measured by bone markers and imaging in patients with relapsed/refractory myeloma.

This is a Phase Ib, open-label, multicenter, global study designed to assess the safety and tolerability of RO6870810 as monotherapy and in combination with daratumumab in participants with relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma. Each treatment cycle will be 21 days in length. There are two parts to this study. A dose-escalation phase (Part I) will be used to evaluate the safety and tolerability and dose limiting toxicities, and to establish the maximum tolerated dose (MTR)/optimum biological dose (OBD) of RO6870810 when given as monotherapy or in combination with daratumumab. A dose-expansion phase (Part II) will further characterize the safety, tolerability and activity of RO6870810 as monotherapy or in combination with daratumumab at the defined expansion dose-levels.

Current protocols use G-CSF to mobilize hematopoietic progenitor cells from matched sibling and volunteer unrelated donors. Unfortunately, this process requires four to six days of G-CSF injection and can be associated with side effects, most notably bone pain and rarely splenic rupture. BL-8040 is given as a single SC injection, and collection of cells occurs on the same day as BL-8040 administration. This study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of this novel agent for hematopoietic progenitor cell mobilization and allogeneic transplantation based on the following hypotheses: Healthy HLA-matched donors receiving one injection of BL-8040 will mobilize sufficient CD34+ cells (at least 2.0 x 10^6 CD34+ cells/kg recipient weight) following no more than two leukapheresis collections to support a hematopoietic cell transplant. The hematopoietic cells mobilized by SC BL-8040 will be functional and will result in prompt and durable hematopoietic engraftment following transplantation into HLA-identical siblings with advanced hematological malignancies using various non-myeloablative and myeloablative conditioning regimens and regimens for routine GVHD prophylaxis. If these hypotheses 1 and 2 are confirmed after an interim safety analysis of the data, then the study will continue and include recruitment of haploidentical donors.

The purpose of this study is to explore the combination of Elotuzumab in combination with autologous stem cell transplantation and lenalidomide maintenance to see what side effects it may have and how well it works for the treatment of symptomatic multiple myeloma diagnosed and treated with induction therapy in the past year. Induction therapy is the first phase of treatment for multiple myeloma. The goal of induction therapy for multiple myeloma is to reduce the number of plasma cells in the bone marrow and the proteins that the plasma cells produce. Induction therapy is usually given for 3-4 weeks. An autologous peripheral blood stem cell transplant is a procedure in which immature "stem cells" are collected and stored for future use. A high dose of chemotherapy is given to the patient to destroy myeloma cells, and the patient's stem cells are replaced. The investigational drug in this program is elotuzumab. Elotuzumab is known as BMS-901608. Elotuzumab is a manufactured protein directed against a target found on multiple myeloma cells. Lenalidomide is currently approved for patients with multiple myeloma. Melphalan and cyclophosphamide, the drugs used during stem cell collection and transplant, are also approved by the U.S. FDA. Melphalan is an FDA-approved chemotherapy for multiple myeloma and is used as high-dose treatment prior to stem cell transplantation. Cyclophosphamide is an FDA-approved chemotherapy that may be used, either alone, or in combination with other drugs to treat multiple myeloma.

This is a first in human phase 1 multicenter open label study in subjects with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma.

Study of elotuzumab in combination with pomalidomide and low dose dexamethasone (EPd Cohort) and elotuzumab in combination with nivolumab (EN Cohort) to assess the safety and efficacy of these combination therapies for treatment of relapsed or refractory MM patients.

This trial will evaluate the safety and efficacy of a reduced intensity allogeneic HSCT from partially HLA-mismatched first-degree relatives utilizing PBSC as the stem cell source. The primary objective of the study is to estimate the incidence of graft rejection and acute GVHD. A secondary objective will be to estimate the incidence of the relapse, NRM, OS, chronic GVHD and EFS.

This study is a Multicentre, Open-label, Phase II study of Daratumumab and Dexamethasone in MM patients. Eligible patients must have a symptomatic RRMM with a measurable disease, resistant or refractory to Bortezomib and Lenalidomide and Pomalidomide. There is no dose escalation phase, as the MAxiamal Tolerated Dose (MTD) and drug scheduling have already been determined in previous phase 1-2 dose escalation studies. There is no randomization.

This study will find the highest acceptable treatment dose and timing of infusion of cord blood, culture expanded natural killer (NK) cells, a kind of immune cell, in patients with multiple myeloma. The NK cells will be given at varying days post autologous stem cell transplant. rhIL-2 is administered after treatment to help the NK cells expand in the body. The safety of this treatment will be studied and researchers want to learn if NK cells will help in treating multiple myeloma.

Myeloma patients with renal impairment need a rapid and effective reduction of tumor burden to enable renal recovery, which is correlated with prognosis of the patients. However, effective combination regimens are often hampered by necessary dose reductions or increased toxicity in renally impaired patients. The well known positive effects on renal impairment by Bortezomib combined with Daratumumab, which, as all monoclonal Antibody, is not renally excreted or metabolized and as so far known should not add significant toxicity but efficacy, makes the proposed combination of Daratumumab, Bortezomib and Dexamethasone highly attractive for renally impaired MM patients. In the current clinical trials with Daratumumab patients with renal function impairment (GFR ≤ 20 ml/min) were so far excluded. Consequently questions about efficacy, safety and pharmacokinetics of Daratumumab in combination with Bortezomib and Dexamethasone in patients with relapsed and refractory MM and severe renal impairment are still unanswered. This trial will answer these questions for a patient group, who has still an unmet need for novel and effective treatment options
