Study Summary

This trial is testing selinexor in combination with pomalidomide and dexamethasone, with or without carfilzomib, to see if it can help control relapsed refractory multiple myeloma.

Who is the study for?
Adults with relapsed refractory multiple myeloma who have previously been treated and are not responding to proteasome inhibitors and immunomodulatory drugs. Participants must be over 18, able to perform daily activities with minimal assistance (ECOG PS 0-2), capable of taking oral medication, willing to use birth control, and have adequate organ function. They cannot join if they've had major surgery within the last 21 days or have certain severe diseases, allergies specific to trial medications, active infections requiring systemic treatment within the past two weeks, or uncontrolled illnesses.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The SCOPE Trial is testing selinexor in combination with pomalidomide and dexamethasone against the same combination plus carfilzomib for treating patients whose multiple myeloma has returned after previous treatments. The study aims to find out the best dose of selinexor and its side effects when used in these combinations.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects include nausea, fatigue, low blood counts leading to increased infection risk or bleeding problems, liver issues reflected by altered blood tests results; there may also be risks related to heart health such as changes in blood pressure or heart rhythm.

2Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Group I: Arm B (selinexor, dexamethasone, pomalidomide)Experimental Treatment11 Interventions
Patients receive selinexor PO and dexamethasone PO on days 1, 8, 15, and 22, and pomalidomide PO on days 1-21. Treatment repeats every 28 days for up to 18 cycles in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients also undergo PET/CT or CT and bone marrow biopsy and aspiration during screening and on the trial. Patients may optionally undergo blood sample collection during screening and on the trial.
Group II: Arm A (selinexor, dexamethasone, carfilzomib, carfilzomib)Experimental Treatment12 Interventions
Patients receive selinexor PO and dexamethasone PO on days 1, 8 15, and 22, carfilzomib IV on days 1, 8, and 15, and pomalidomide PO on days 1-21. Treatment repeats every 28 days for up to 18 cycles in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients also undergo PET/CT or CT and bone marrow biopsy and aspiration during screening and on the trial. Patients may optionally undergo blood sample collection during screening and on the trial.
