Summary

This trial is testing selinexor, carfilzomib, and dexamethasone to see if they're effective at treating multiple myeloma.

Who is the study for?
Adults with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma, who have tried at least two prior therapies including a proteasome inhibitor and a cereblon-binding agent. They must have measurable disease, be able to follow the study schedule, and use effective contraception if of childbearing potential. Excluded are those with recent major surgery, known allergies to certain drug components, serious medical conditions that could interfere with treatment, previous Selinexor exposure, unstable heart conditions, active infections like HIV or hepatitis B/C.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial is testing the combination of selinexor and carfilzomib with dexamethasone to find the best dose and side effects for treating multiple myeloma that has returned after treatment or is not responding. Selinexor and dexamethasone are chemotherapy drugs while carfilzomib blocks enzymes needed for cancer cell growth.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects include nausea, fatigue, blood count changes leading to increased infection risk or bleeding problems; liver enzyme alterations; possible allergic reactions; nerve damage causing pain or numbness; as well as other organ-specific inflammation.
