CC-220 Combination Therapy for Multiple Myeloma
Trial Summary
What is the purpose of this trial?
This trial tests a new drug, CC-220, alone and with other drugs for patients with multiple myeloma who haven't responded to other treatments or are newly diagnosed. The drugs work by controlling cancer cell growth and killing cancer cells through different mechanisms.
Do I need to stop my current medications to join the trial?
The trial protocol does not specify if you need to stop your current medications. It's best to discuss this with the trial team or your doctor.
What data supports the effectiveness of the drug combination therapy for multiple myeloma?
Research shows that adding daratumumab to bortezomib and dexamethasone significantly improves progression-free survival (the time during which the disease does not get worse) and overall response rates in patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma compared to using bortezomib and dexamethasone alone.12345
Is the combination therapy of CC-220, bortezomib, daratumumab, and dexamethasone safe for humans?
The combination of daratumumab, bortezomib, and dexamethasone has been shown to be generally safe in humans, with a consistent safety profile over time. Iberdomide (CC-220) combined with dexamethasone has also been evaluated for safety in patients with multiple myeloma, indicating it is tolerable in heavily pretreated patients.12346
What makes the CC-220 combination therapy for multiple myeloma unique?
The CC-220 combination therapy for multiple myeloma is unique because it includes daratumumab, a monoclonal antibody that targets CD38, which can be administered subcutaneously, offering a more convenient option compared to traditional intravenous methods. This combination aims to improve patient outcomes by enhancing immune responses and prolonging progression-free survival.12478
