What is the purpose of this trial?

This trial tests a drug called elranatamab to determine its safety and effectiveness for people with AL amyloidosis, a condition where abnormal proteins accumulate in tissues and organs. The research aims to find the right dose and assess the drug's effectiveness for those whose disease has returned or did not respond to previous treatments. Individuals who have experienced a return of their AL amyloidosis after at least one prior treatment and are not currently on other experimental therapies might be suitable for this trial. As a Phase 1 trial, the research focuses on understanding how the treatment works in people, offering participants the opportunity to be among the first to receive this new treatment.

Do I need to stop my current medications to join the trial?

The trial information does not specify if you need to stop taking your current medications. It's best to discuss this with the trial coordinators or your doctor.

Is there any evidence suggesting that elranatamab is likely to be safe for humans?

Research has shown that elranatamab was safe in earlier studies. People with relapsed AL amyloidosis, a condition where abnormal proteins accumulate in organs, did not experience new side effects when treated with elranatamab. Even those with serious heart issues did not encounter new problems. Reports confirm the treatment's safety, as it doesn't introduce unexpected risks. This supports its use in ongoing studies for similar conditions. ^{1 2 3 4 5}

Why do researchers think this study treatment might be promising?

Elranatamab is unique because it represents a new approach to treating AL Amyloidosis. While traditional treatments often focus on managing symptoms or slowing disease progression, Elranatamab is a bispecific antibody that targets specific proteins involved in the disease. This targeted mechanism allows it to home in on the problematic cells more precisely, potentially leading to better outcomes. Additionally, Elranatamab is administered subcutaneously, which could offer a more convenient and less invasive option compared to some existing treatments. Researchers are excited about its potential to provide a more effective and targeted therapy for patients with this challenging condition.

What evidence suggests that elranatamab might be an effective treatment for AL amyloidosis?

Studies have shown that elranatamab can help treat AL amyloidosis, a condition where abnormal proteins accumulate in organs. In earlier research, nine patients with advanced AL amyloidosis showed improvement after using elranatamab, with each patient experiencing some level of benefit. Notably, 67% of these patients had a significant improvement, which is very encouraging. In this trial, participants will receive elranatamab to further evaluate its effectiveness for those with relapsed or difficult-to-treat AL amyloidosis. ^{1 2 4 5 6}

Are You a Good Fit for This Trial?

This trial is for adults over 18 with AL amyloidosis that has come back or didn't respond to treatment. They should be relatively active (able to care for themselves) and have certain levels of blood cells, liver, and kidney function. People who've had belantamab mafodotin can join if they stopped due to side effects. Those with chronic hepatitis must have it under control.

What Are the Treatments Tested in This Trial?

Interventions

• Elranatamab

Trial Overview

The study tests elranatamab's safety and effectiveness in those whose AL amyloidosis hasn't improved after previous treatments. It looks at how well patients tolerate the drug and its impact on their disease, especially for those with specific heart conditions and measurable signs of the disease in their blood.

How Is the Trial Designed?

Group I: Elranatamab Dose Schedule Experimental Treatment 1 Intervention

Phase I: Phase I will enroll up to 20 participants. All participants in Phase I will be hospitalized during Cycle 1 dosing. The first 5 participants will be hospitalized for 9 days, and subsequent participants will be hospitalized for 5 days. Elranatamab will be administered subcutaneously at a dose of 12 mg on C1D1, 32 mg on C1D4, and 76 mg on C1D8. Subsequent treatment doses will be 76 mg thereafter. If two or more participants at Level 0 experience DLT, dose will be decreased to Level -1. If 2 or more participants at Level -1 experience DLT, the trial will be discontinued. Phase II: All participants in Phase 2 will receive the RP2D determined in Phase 1. Phase 2 will enroll an additional 29 participants. If RP2D is determined to be Dose Level 0, the treatment schedule will be the same as described in Dose Level 0. If RP2D is determined to be Dose Level -1, the treatment schedule will be the same as described in Dose Level -1.Treatment duration is 6 cycles of 28 days per cycle.

Published Research Related to This Trial

Elranatamab, a bispecific antibody targeting BCMA and CD3, showed significantly higher objective response rates and complete response rates compared to physician's choice of treatment in patients with triple-class exposed/refractory multiple myeloma, based on data from the MagnetisMM-3 trial with 123 participants.

Patients treated with elranatamab also experienced longer progression-free survival and overall survival compared to those receiving physician's choice treatment, indicating its potential as a more effective option for this difficult-to-treat patient population.

In a study of 10 patients with Her2-positive breast cancer brain metastases, T-DM1 showed promising activity, with 3 patients achieving partial remission and 2 maintaining stable disease for at least 6 months.

The median intracranial progression-free survival (PFS) was 5 months, suggesting that T-DM1 could be a viable systemic therapy option for brain metastases, warranting further investigation despite local treatment remaining the standard of care.

In a study of 214 patients with HER2-positive breast cancer brain metastases, trastuzumab emtansine (T-DM1) significantly improved overall survival compared to lapatinib plus capecitabine, with median survival times of 17.7 months versus 9.6 months, respectively.

T-DM1 also demonstrated better outcomes in terms of time to next treatment and real-world progression-free survival, indicating its superior effectiveness in managing this patient population.

In a retrospective study of 69 female patients with hormone receptor-positive, HER2-negative metastatic breast cancer, abemaciclib demonstrated effectiveness as both a monotherapy and in combination with endocrine therapy, aligning with previous clinical trial results.

The median duration of abemaciclib treatment was 7.7 months, with 86% of patients discontinuing treatment mainly due to disease progression, indicating that while effective, the drug is often used in heavily pretreated patients with advanced disease.

The median progression-free survival was 5.5 months and overall survival was 18.9 months, with T-DM1 showing a tolerable safety profile, although nervous system adverse events were more common in patients with brain metastases.
