Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Ixazomib (MLN9708) and DexamethasoneExperimentalPatients with high risk SMM will be enrolled on the pilot study and treated with 2 drug combination (Cycles 1-12 Ixazomib at 4 mg weekly on days 1, 8 and 15, and dexamethasone on days 1, 8, 15 and 22 of 28 day cycle); the dexamethasone dose will be 40 mg/week the first 4 cycles, thereafter 20 mg/week.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. best response

    best overall response rate (PR or better) Stringent Complete Response (sCR) Complete Response as defined below plus: Normal FLC ratio and absence of clonal cells in bone marrow by immunohistochemistry or immunofluorescence (presence/absence of clonal cells is based on the kappa/ lambda ratio. Complete Response (CR) Negative immunofixation on the serum and urine and disappearance of any soft tissue plasmacytomas and ≤5% plasma cells in bone marrow Very Good Partial Response (VGPR) Serum and urine M-protein detectable by immunofixation but not on electrophoresis or 90% or greater reduction in serum M-protein plus urine M-protein level <100mg per 24h Partial Response (PR) ≥50% reduction of serum M-protein and reduction in 24-h urinary M-protein by ≥90% or to <200mg per 24h. If the serum and urine M-protein are unmeasureable, a ≥50% decrease in the difference between involved and uninvolved FLC levels is required in place of the M-protein criteria

    Measured: up to 12 cycles of treatment (28 day cycle)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Ixazomib (MLN9708) and Dexamethasone in people with Multiple Myeloma and High Risk Smoldering Multiple Myeloma, run by Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center at 6 sites 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 31 inclusion and 25 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 13 May 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 6 sites 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?

best response (time frame: up to 12 cycles of treatment (28 day cycle)). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 13 May 2024.
