Study Summary

This trial is testing if two drugs used to treat cancer are more effective when used together.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults over 18 with multiple myeloma that's come back or hasn't responded to at least three prior treatments. They must have decent organ function, not be pregnant, and agree to use contraception. People can't join if they've had recent major surgery, active infections needing IV treatment, certain eye diseases, unstable heart conditions, or used other investigational drugs recently.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests the combination of two approved drugs for multiple myeloma—Belantamab Mafodotin and Elotuzumab—to see if they work better together. Participants will receive both medications under controlled conditions to assess safety and effectiveness.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may include vision issues due to Belantamab Mafodotin (participants cannot wear contact lenses), as well as general risks like infection susceptibility increase, allergic reactions related to either drug's components, bleeding complications or liver problems.

Experimental Treatment
Group I: Belantamab Mafodotin and Elotuzumab ArmExperimental Treatment2 Interventions
Elotuzumab will be administered via intravenous infusion at an established dose of 10 mg/kg on days 1, 8, 15, 22 every 28 days for cycles 1 and 2, followed by 20mg/kg on day 1 of each cycle thereafter, cycles repeated every 28 days. Belantamab mafodotin will be administered via IV infusion. There will be 2 dose levels for belantamab mafodotin, with the starting dose of 1.9 mg/kg IV at every 4 week interval. Up to 12 subjects will be treated at this dose level. If the initial dose is found to be too toxic, dose of belantamab mafodotin 1.9 mg/kg every 8 weeks will be tested. .

Frequently Asked Questions

These questions and answers are submitted by anonymous patients, and have not been verified by our internal team.

What outcomes is this investigation seeking to attain?

"According to GlaxoSmithKline's report, the primary outcome for this trial will be measured over a 28 day period and is evaluating Dose-Limiting Toxicities (DLTs). In addition, secondary measurements include Progression Free Survival (PFS) which employs an IMWG Response Criteria; Overall Survival (OS), following patients until study termination or death from any cause; and Minimal Residual Disease (MRD) evaluated through multi-parameter flow cytometry and Next Generation Sequencing of bone marrow biopsies."

Answered by AI

Are there currently any opportunities for patients to participate in this experiment?

"Per information on clinicaltrials.gov, patient recruitment for this medical trial is ongoing. This study was initially posted to the public domain on February 21st 2022 and has been updated as recently at August 15th 2022."

In what medical contexts is Elotuzumab commonly prescribed?

"Elotuzumab has been demonstrated to be an effective immunomodulatory agent for multiple myeloma that is refractory to proteasome inhibitors."

Answered by AI

Are there other reports of Elotuzumab being tested in clinical trials?

"Presently, 54 trials are being conducted for Elotuzumab with 7 in the last phase of testing. Although much of the work is occuring out of Milwaukee, Wisconsin, there are 1,705 active sites across the globe running studies on this therapy."

Answered by AI

How many individuals are currently taking part in this research endeavor?

"Confirmed. According to clinicaltrials.gov, this research study initiated on February 21st 2022 and has been collecting new data as recently as August 15th 2022 is actively seeking applicants. For the project, 24 subjects at one site are required."
