Active clinical trials for "Multiple Myeloma"

The purpose of this study is to provide continued access to ixazomib and/or other study drugs from an ixazomib parent study.

This is a multicenter, randomized, open label study designed to compare the efficacy and safety of lenalidomide with low-dose alkylating agents versus high-dose melphalan followed by stem cell support in newly diagnosed symptomatic MM patients who are 65 years of age or younger.

RATIONALE: Giving bortezomib together with melphalan and dexamethasone may be an effective treatment for primary amyloidosis and light chain deposition disease. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well giving bortezomib together with melphalan and dexamethasone works in treating patients with primary amyloidosis or light chain deposition disease.

This randomized phase III trial studies lenalidomide, dexamethasone, and bortezomib to see how well it works compared to dexamethasone and lenalidomide alone in treating patients with previously untreated multiple myeloma. Biological therapies, such as lenalidomide, may stimulate the immune system in different ways and stop cancer cells from growing. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as dexamethasone, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Bortezomib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth or by blocking blood flow to the cancer. It is not yet known whether lenalidomide and dexamethasone is more effective with or without bortezomib in treating multiple myeloma.

This study is for patients with newly diagnosed or relapsed multiple myeloma. The main purpose of this study is to see how their disease responds to consolidation treatment (treatment aimed at further decreasing cancer cells) with a radioactive antibody (protein) called iodine I 131 tositumomab (known by the tradename Bexxar®) and also to look at the side effects which occur with this type of treatment. The investigators will also be looking at how long disease responds to treatment, if it responds at all, and how long patients who have had this treatment survive. Bexxar is a monoclonal antibody (protein) to which radioactive iodine 131 is attached. The monoclonal antibody in Bexxar (tositumomab), targets a protein called CD20 found on the surface of a variety of B-cells, including lymphoma cells, and some myeloma cells. The antibody is given as an infusion and finds its way to these cells. The radioactive iodine attached to the antibody delivers radiation directly to these cells which works to harm or kill the cancer cells. Approximately 20-25% of patients with multiple myeloma have this protein on the surface of their tumor cells. In addition, this protein was found on the surface of myeloma stem cells. While myeloma stem cells represent a minority of all myeloma cells (less than 5%), these cells are resistant to chemotherapy and are believed to be responsible for a recurrence of the disease after chemotherapy. In this study, Bexxar will be used after patients complete a course of chemotherapy and have residual myeloma cells left in their body. The Investigators are hoping that the treatment with Bexxar will decrease and possibly eliminate residual myeloma cells resistant to chemotherapy.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the clinical benefit of subcutaneous (SC) daratumumab administered in combination with standard multiple myeloma (MM) regimens in participants with MM as measured by overall response rate (ORR) or very good partial response (VGPR) or better rate.

This phase I/II trial studies the side effects and best dose of melphalan hydrochloride in treating participants with newly-diagnosed multiple myeloma who are undergoing a donor stem cell transplantation. Giving chemotherapy before a donor stem cell transplantation helps stop the growth of cells in the bone marrow, including normal blood-forming cells (stem cells) and cancer cells. When the healthy stem cells from a donor are infused into the participant, they may help the participant's bone marrow make stem cells, red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets. Giving melphalan hydrochloride before a donor stem cell transplantation may work better than standard chemotherapy in helping to prevent multiple myeloma from coming back.

This study aims to demonstrate that the mobilization with cytokine stimulation with G-CSF alone is non-inferior as compared to the standard mobilization with chemotherapy and G-CSF while associated with fewer side effects in myeloma patients.

Primary Objective: -To demonstrate the benefit of isatuximab in combination with bortezomib, lenalidomide, and dexamethasone in the prolongation of progression free survival (PFS) as compared to bortezomib, lenalidomide, and dexamethasone, in patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma (NDMM) not eligible for transplant. Secondary Objectives: To evaluate in both randomized (isatuximab, bortezomib, lenalidomide and dexamethasone combination (IVRd) and bortezomib, lenalidomide and dexamethasone combination (VRd)) arms: Complete response (CR) rate, as defined by the International Myeloma Working Group (IMWG) criteria. Minimal residual disease (MRD) negativity rate in patients with CR. Very good partial response or better rate, as defined by the IMWG criteria. Overall survival (OS). To evaluate the overall response rate (ORR) as per IMWG criteria. To evaluate the time to progression (TTP) overall and by MRD status. To evaluate PFS by MRD status. To evaluate the duration of response (DOR) overall and by MRD status. To evaluate time to first response (TT1R). To evaluate time to best response (TTBR). To evaluate progression-free survival on next line of therapy (PFS2). To evaluate the sustained MRD negativity >12 months rate. To evaluate safety. To determine the pharmacokinetic (PK) profile of isatuximab in combination with bortezomib, lenalidomide, and dexamethasone (IVRd arm only). To evaluate the immunogenicity of isatuximab in patients receiving isatuximab (IVRd and crossover arms). To assess disease-specific and generic health-related quality of life (HRQL), disease and treatment-related symptoms, health state utility, and health status.

This is a multicenter, open label, phase II randomized controlled study that will evaluate the efficacy of carfilzomib and dexamethasone in combination with cyclophosphamide in R/R MM patients. For this purpose, R/R MM patients that have received 1-3 prior lines of therapy, and who are not primary refractory or refractory to proteasome inhibitors will be randomized to receive: Experimental arm: carfilzomib at a dose of 70 mg/m2 (20 mg/m2 only in the first infusion) intravenously (iv) on days 1, 8, and 15, dexamethasone by mouth (po) at a dose of 20 mg (10 mg for patients >75 years) days 1, 2, 8, 9, 15 and 16 and cyclophosphamide at a dose of 300 mg/m2 iv on days 1, 8 and 15, in 28 days cycles; or Control arm: the same treatment but without cyclophosphamide. Once the first 12 cycles are administered, treatment will be administered on days 1 and 15 of each cycle and the visit and doses on day 8 will be omitted in both study arms. Patients older than 75 years will receive in both arms carfilzomib at a dose of 56 mg/m2 (20 mg/m2 only in the first infusion) during the cycles 1 and 2. If tolerability is acceptable, the dose could be increased up to 70 mg/m2 since the cycle 3. Treatment will be continued until progression, unacceptable toxicity or investigator or patient decision.
