About this study

Official title: Phase 1 Study of Elotuzumab in Combination With Autologous Stem Cell Transplantation and Lenalidomide Maintenance for Multiple Myeloma

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.

Read the detailed description

This is a Phase 1b, open-label, trial investigating elotuzumab and autologous PBMC reconstitution with auto-SCT consolidation therapy and lenalidomide maintenance. Fifteen patients will be enrolled in this study.

This study is based on the hypothesis that the addition of Elotuzumab and autologous PBMC reconstitution to standard-of-care auto-SCT and lenalidomide maintenance will be safe and feasible. Furthermore, we hypothesize that Elotuzumab and PBMC reconstitution will target residual myeloma cells, enhance NK cell activation and ADCC, and promote tumor-specific humoral and cellular immune responses against myeloma cells, resulting in long-term maintenance of the minimal residual disease state.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • ElotuzumabDrug

    Also called Empliciti

    The following must also be administered before any elotuzumab:

    Dexamethasone 8 mg IV (on the day of elotuzumab infusion 45-90 mins prior to the start of infusion), the following 30 - 90 minutes prior to start of infusion: H1 blocker: diphenhydramine (25 - 50 mg po or IV) or equivalent, H2 blocker: ranitidine (50 mg IV) or equivalent (adjusted for renal failure as indicated), acetaminophen (650 - 1000 mg po).

  • LenalidomideDrug

    Also called Revlimid

    On the days of elotuzumab administration, the dose of lenalidomide is to be administered at least 2 hours after completion of elotuzumab dosing. Aspirin 81 mg PO daily will also be prescribed for DVT prophylaxis.

  • autologous PBMC reconstitutionOther

    Autologous peripheral blood mononuclear cell collection and reconstitution. PBMC will be collected from patients by standard apheresis procedures. Up to 25 ml of autologous plasma will also be recovered for dilution of cryopreserved products (if necessary). For reconstitution, Patients will be pre-medicated as per each institution's standard protocols prior to reinfusion of PBMC products. Patient ID will be checked and verified by nursing staff and the products will be re-infused by continuous intravenous infusion pump. Patient vital signs will be monitored every 15 minutes for the duration of the procedure as per standard reinfusion protocol.

  • ASCTOther

    Also called auto-SCT consolidation therapy

    Autologous peripheral blood stem cell transplantation. (stem cells from the patient's own marrow are "harvested," stored and then returned to the body (engrafted). To be done as part of standard of care.

    Immunofixation Serum Test (IFE) level

    Measured: up to 24 months

  2. sFLC level

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Elotuzumab, Lenalidomide and autologous PBMC reconstitution in people with Multiple Myeloma, run by Hearn Jay Cho at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 13 inclusion and 45 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 18 Aug 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Incidence of completion of treatment (time frame: up to 24 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02655458, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 18 Aug 2017.
