Identifying Effective and Cost-Conscious Maintenance Daratumumab Dosing

What this study is about

This phase II trial tests daratumumab given at a reduced frequency with lenalidomide for maintenance therapy for the cost effective treatment of patients with multiple myeloma post stem cell transplant.

View original scientific description

This phase II trial tests daratumumab given at a reduced frequency with lenalidomide for maintenance therapy for the cost effective treatment of patients with multiple myeloma post stem cell transplant. Darzalex Faspor (also known as Daratumumab-hyaluronidase) is a combination of two drugs used alone or with other drugs to treat adults with certain types of multiple myeloma or light chain amyloidosis. Daratumumab binds to a protein called CD38, which is found on some types of immune cells and cancer cells, including myeloma cells. Daratumumab may block CD38 and help the immune system kill cancer cells. Hyaluronidase allows daratumumab to be given by injection under the skin. Daratumumab and hyaluronidase can be given in less time than daratumumab alone, which is given as an infusion. Lenalidomide may stop or slow cancer cells by blocking the growth of new blood vessels necessary for tumor growth. Daratumumab-hyaluronidase is typically given every 4 weeks per standard of care. Giving it every 8 weeks for the first year followed by every 16 weeks for years 2 through 4 in combination with lenalidomide may be equally as effective and reduce costs and treatment visits for patients with multiple myeloma post stem cell transplant.

Interventions

DRUG

Daratumumab and Recombinant Human Hyaluronidase

Daratumumab- will be administered at a dose of 1800 mg/30,000 units subcutaneously, every 8 weeks throughout Year 1 (injection to occur on day 1 of every other 28-day cycle for Cycle 1 through Cycle 11); throughout years 2 through 4 (beginning at Cycle 15, ending at Cycle 47), Daratumumab injections will occur every fourth cycle.

DRUG

Lenalidomide

Patients are scheduled to take an oral dose of Lenalidomide once each day (QD), starting at 10 mg per day for the first 3 months with an increase to 15 mg per day subsequently, if tolerated. Patients will do this continuously, until progressive disease or unacceptable adverse event

Primary outcome measures

Percentage of participants with minimal residual disease (MRD) negative status

Time frame: 2 years

Determined by next generation sequencing or color flow cytometry per Euroflow standard procedure at sensitivity threshold of 10\^-5.

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.
