Study Summary
This trial studied how well daratumumab works in treating patients with multiple myeloma after a stem cell transplant. Monoclonal antibodies kill cancer cells that are left after chemotherapy.
Who is the study for?
This trial is for patients with multiple myeloma who have adequate organ function, no severe asthma or uncontrolled diseases, and are not pregnant. They must understand the study and agree to use birth control. Participants should be within 2-13 months of their first therapy for multiple myeloma and have a sufficient number of stem cells collected for transplant.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial tests daratumumab's effectiveness following a stem cell transplant in treating multiple myeloma. Daratumumab is an antibody that may destroy remaining cancer cells post-chemotherapy. The study includes autologous stem cell transplantation, melphalan chemotherapy, and biomarker analysis.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Daratumumab can cause immune system reactions such as infusion-related responses, fatigue, nausea, bone marrow suppression leading to low blood counts which increases infection risk, and potential allergic reactions.

"Yes, the clinical trial website shows that this research is still accepting participants. It was first made available on July 17th 2019 and recently updated on October 7th 2022. The study requires 40 volunteers from 1 location."
Answered by AI
What therapeutic applications is Autologous Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation most often employed for?
"Autologous Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation has been proven to be an effective form of immunomodulation, as well as a viable treatment for stage i mycosis fungoides and haematological disorders such as polycythemia vera (PV) and lymphoma."
Answered by AI
