Active clinical trials for "Neoplasms, Plasma Cell"

This randomized phase II trial studies the side effects and how well melphalan hydrochloride works in treating patients with multiple myeloma that has come back or does not respond to treatment. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as melphalan hydrochloride, 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.

This research study is studying a combination of drugs as a possible treatment for multiple myeloma. The drugs that will be administered are: ABI-009 (nab-rapamycin) Pomalidomide Dexamethasone

The Total Therapy treatment regimens developed at the Myeloma Institute have demonstrated great improvement in treatment outcomes for multiple myeloma patients. However, some patients still relapse early during maintenance treatment meaning that better options are still needed. This study will evaluate a treatment regimen that alternates two different 3-drug regimens every eight weeks for patients that have previously completed autologous stem cell transplant. The two regimens are bortezomib, lenalidomide, and dexamethasone (VRD) which will be alternated with Elotuzumab, lenalidomide, and dexamethasone (Elo RD). Effectiveness will be measured by the depth of response (i.e., whether or not minimal residual disease (MRD) negative status is achieved). The rate of MRD negativity from this study will be compared to historical control data from the Total Therapy 4 trial which used continuous VRD maintenance therapy after stem cell transplant(s).

[18F]Florbetaben PET/CT imaging will noninvasively assess amyloid deposition in systemic amyloidosis.

This is a prospective, single-center, open-label phase Ib study aimed at determining a recommended phase II dose of INCB053914 and pomalidomide with dexamethasone. The trial will follow a 3 + 3 phase I dose-escalation design.

This phase II trial studies the effects of isatuximab given as a rapid-infusion in treating multiple myeloma that has come back (recurrent) or has not responded to treatment (refractory). Isatuximab, also known as Sarclisa, is an antibody (proteins that can protect the body from foreign organisms, such as bacteria and viruses) directed against cluster of differentiation 38 (CD38), a receptor antigen (a receptor or protein on the outside of blood cells that can be used as a target). Isatuximab may stop the growth of some blood cancers. Normally, the fastest that intravenous isatuximab can be given - for patients who have not had any reactions to their first two doses - is over 1 hour and 15 minutes. This study is designed to test whether intravenous isatuximab can be given over 30 minutes ("rapid infusion") among patients who have not developed any reactions to at least 2 prior doses of intravenous isatuximab at normal speeds. If shown to be safe, "rapid infusion" isatuximab may ultimately improve the patient experience while reducing the overall cost of the infusion.

This is a phase 2A multi-centre, open label, pilot study of pembrolizumab added to the standard first-line therapy of cyclophosphamide, bortezomib and dexamethasone (CyBorD) in newly diagnosed patients with multiple myeloma that are not eligible for autologous stem cell transplantation.

The present protocol aims to test, whether an approach using (i) a reduced-toxicity TBF followed by a (ii) Daratumumab maintenance and (iii) prophylactic infusion of donor lymphocytes (pDLI), will be able to improve progression-free survival of patients with refractory or relapsed MM. This trial represents the first prospective protocol aiming to test the use of Daratumumab maintenance after HLA-identical or haploidentical allo-SCT in patients with MM.

This study is designed to evaluate the safety and tolerability of mRNA-2736 in participants with RRMM.

The main aim is to show that long-term use of ixazomib can improve symptoms of multiple myeloma and provide an effective long-term alternative treatment. Participants will take ixazomib orally (by mouth) with pomalidomide and dexamethasone or lenalidomide and dexamethasone in 28-day treatment cycles. Participants will be treated for a maximum of 39 cycles but may continue to receive ixazomib beyond 39 cycles if they are benefiting from it. A follow-up study visit will occur 30 days after the last dose of ixazomib. Participants will be monitored for up to 3 years.
