A Study to Evaluate Efficacy and Safety of Ciltacabtagene Autoleucel
(CARTITUDE-10)
What this study is about
The purpose of this study is to evaluate how well (effectiveness) cilta-cel works when given with a fludarabine-free lymphodepletion regimen (a process of reducing the number of lymphocytes, a type of white blood cell in the body, typically through chemotherapy), or an alternative administration of cilta-cel infusion following a cyclophosphamide and fludarabine lymphodepletion regimen.

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.
Inclusion criteria
- Documented diagnosis of newly diagnosed multiple myeloma (NDMM) according to the most recent international myeloma working group (IMWG) diagnostic criteria and measurable disease at diagnosis (prior to start of any anti-myeloma therapy): Serum monoclonal paraprotein (M-protein) level greater than equal to (\>=)1.0 grams per deciliter (g/dL) or urine M-protein level \>= 200 milligrams (mg)/24 hours; or light chain multiple myeloma in whom the only measurable disease is by serum free light chain (FLC) levels in the serum: involved serum free light chain \>= 10 mg/dL and abnormal serum free light chain ratio
- Not considered a candidate for high-dose chemotherapy with stem cell transplantation due to: (a) Advanced age; or (b) Presence of comorbid condition(s) likely to have a negative impact on tolerability of high-dose chemotherapy with stem cell transplantation; or (c) Participant refusal of high-dose chemotherapy with stem cell transplantation as initial treatment
- Participant must have received at least 3 cycles and no more than 5 cycles of induction therapy. Initially, only participants receiving triplet induction therapy with DRd or VRd will be enrolled. Only after sponsor notification, participants receiving quadruplet DVRd induction therapy may be enrolled (screening can commence as early as during Cycle 3 of induction). Participants must have achieved \>= partial response (PR) on the most recent disease assessment to be enrolled
- Eastern cooperative oncology group (ECOG) Performance Status score of 0 or 1
- Must be willing and able to adhere to the lifestyle restrictions specified in the protocol
Exclusion criteria
- Frailty index of \>= 2 according to Myeloma Geriatric Assessment score
- Known allergies, hypersensitivity, or intolerance to study intervention or its active agents
- Grade 2 or higher ongoing non-hematologic toxicity due to induction therapy, with the exception of grade 2 peripheral neuropathy due to bortezomib
- Participants who require continuous supplemental oxygen
Where
- San Francisco, California
- Tampa, Florida
- Iowa City, Iowa

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.
