(DREAMM-20)

What this study is about

The study consists of three parts: Part 1 The primary purpose of this part aims to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and clinical activity of escalating doses of single agent Unconjugated belantamab antibody in participants with refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM) who have received at least 3 prior therapies (4L+).

View original scientific description

The study consists of three parts: Part 1 The primary purpose of this part aims to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and clinical activity of escalating doses of single agent Unconjugated belantamab antibody in participants with refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM) who have received at least 3 prior therapies (4L+). Part 2 The primary purpose of this part is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and clinical activity of different doses of unconjugated belantamab antibody in combination with a fixed dose of Belantamab mafodotin (delivered as separate drugs) in participants with RRMM who have received at least 3 prior therapies (4L+). Part 3: The Primary purpose of this part will evaluate the clinical activity of a selected dose of the unconjugated belantamab antibody in combination with the pomalidomide-dexamethasone (Pd) standard of care (SoC) backbone. The study will focus on participants with multiple myeloma who have undergone at least one prior line of therapy, including treatment with lenalidomide.

Who can participate

This study lists these criteria on ClinicalTrials.gov. A study coordinator reviews eligibility during screening — this page does not determine whether you qualify.

Frequently asked questions

What is a clinical trial?

A clinical trial is a research study that tests new medical treatments, drugs, devices, or procedures to determine their safety and effectiveness. Trials are carefully designed and monitored to protect participants while advancing medical knowledge.

Is it safe to participate?

Clinical trials follow strict safety guidelines and ethical standards. Trials must be reviewed and approved, and participants are closely monitored by medical professionals throughout the study. You can withdraw at any time if you choose.

Will I be compensated?

Many clinical trials offer compensation for your time, travel expenses, and inconvenience. The specific compensation varies by study and will be discussed during the screening process. All study-related medical care is typically provided at no cost to participants.

Will I receive a placebo instead of treatment?

When effective treatment exists, participants typically receive either the standard treatment plus the study intervention, or the standard treatment plus placebo. You would not be denied effective care. Placebos are primarily used when no proven treatment is available, or in addition to standard care. Your trial consent form will clearly explain what treatments you may receive.

Can I leave a trial if I change my mind?

Absolutely. Participation in clinical trials is completely voluntary. You have the right to withdraw from the study at any time, for any reason, without penalty or loss of benefits to which you are otherwise entitled.

How long does a clinical trial last?

Trial duration varies widely depending on the study design and purpose. Some trials last just a few weeks, while others may continue for months or years. The study coordinator will provide specific timeline information during your screening call.
