Study Summary

This trial will test the safety and effectiveness of a new combination therapy for multiple myeloma.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma who have measurable disease, are in good physical condition (ECOG 0-1), and haven't progressed on high-dose lenalidomide. They must not have used ibrutinib or similar drugs before, be able to consent, follow the study plan, and provide samples for research. Pregnant women and those with certain health conditions are excluded.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests a combination of Ibrutinib with Lenalidomide/Dexamethasone in men and women who've had at least one prior therapy for multiple myeloma. It's an open-label phase 1 trial where all participants receive the drug combo to evaluate its safety and effectiveness.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects include risk of bleeding, infections due to lowered immunity from Dexamethasone; heart issues or liver problems from Ibrutinib; and blood clots or kidney damage from Lenalidomide. Side effects vary by individual.

Experimental Treatment
Group I: Dose ExpansionExperimental Treatment3 Interventions
Dosage of the combination will depend on the determine of maximum tolerated dose learned from the Dose Escalation phase. Dose Expansion (Ibrutinib, Lenalidomide, Dexamethasone Combination)
Group II: Dose EscalationExperimental Treatment3 Interventions
Dose escalation will consist of three different drug levels of Ibrutinib, Lenalidomide, and Dexamethasone. Dose Escalation (Ibrutinib, Lenalidomide, Dexamethasone Combination)
