Study Summary

This trial is testing a new drug for people with a certain type of blood cancer who haven't responded well to other treatments.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults over 18 with multiple myeloma that's not responding to lenalidomide treatments. They must have measurable disease, be able to follow the study plan, and use effective birth control if applicable. Exclusions include uncontrolled infections, active HIV or hepatitis, recent major surgery, other serious health issues that could affect the study or consent process.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial tests selinexor's safety and effectiveness in treating multiple myeloma patients who haven't responded to lenalidomide-based therapy. It explores whether adding selinexor (with or without steroids) can help where previous treatment hasn't worked.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Selinexor may cause nausea, vomiting, fatigue, loss of appetite and weight loss. There might also be blood count changes leading to anemia or increased risk of infection and possible liver or kidney function alterations.

Experimental Treatment
Group I: Selinexor/Lenalidomide/SteroidsExperimental Treatment3 Interventions
All subjects enrolled will receive: 1) selinexor, PO, at 60 mg once weekly on days 1-28 of a 28-day cycle, 2) lenalidomide, PO, 10 mg daily on days 1-21 of 28-days cycle and 3) methylprednisolone at the same dose and schedule as the last lenalidomide-containing regimen if it contained steroids. If patient's qualifying lenalidomide-containing regimen contained different type of steroid (e.g. prednisone, dexamethasone, etc.) then patient on this study will receive methylprednisolone at the equivalent dose and schedule.
