What You Need to Know Before You Apply

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.

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. ^{1 2 3 4 5}

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. ^{2 4 5 6 7}

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. ^{1 2 4 5 8}

Interventions

• Bortezomib
• Carfilzomib
• CC-220
• Daratumumab
• Dexamethasone

Trial Overview The trial is testing different doses and combinations of a drug called CC-220 alone or with other treatments like Dexamethasone, Daratumumab, Bortezomib, and Carfilzomib. It's divided into two parts: finding the right dose and then expanding to more patients at that dose to see how well it works for both new and returning cases of Multiple Myeloma.

Published Research Related to This Trial

In a subgroup analysis of the CASTOR trial involving 498 patients, daratumumab combined with bortezomib and dexamethasone (D-Vd) significantly prolonged progression-free survival (PFS) in patients with high cytogenetic risk (12.6 months) compared to bortezomib and dexamethasone alone (6.2 months).

D-Vd also demonstrated a higher rate of minimal residual disease (MRD) negativity, indicating deeper responses in treatment effectiveness, while maintaining a safety profile consistent with the overall study population.

Intravenous daratumumab, when combined with bortezomib, thalidomide, and dexamethasone, significantly improves treatment outcomes for adults with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma, leading to higher rates of stringent complete response and prolonged progression-free survival, as shown in the phase III CASSIOPEIA trial.

The addition of daratumumab has a minimal impact on overall toxicity, with the most common serious side effects being blood-related issues, indicating it is a relatively safe option for patients undergoing treatment for multiple myeloma.

In a phase 3 study (CASTOR) with a median follow-up of 19.4 months, the combination of daratumumab, bortezomib, and dexamethasone significantly improved progression-free survival (16.7 months) compared to bortezomib and dexamethasone alone (7.1 months), indicating its efficacy in treating relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma.

Daratumumab plus bortezomib and dexamethasone also showed a higher overall response rate (83.8% vs. 63.2%) and was particularly beneficial for patients with one prior line of therapy, demonstrating a favorable safety profile consistent over time.

Daratumumab, a monoclonal antibody targeting CD38, has been approved in the USA for treating multiple myeloma in patients who have undergone at least three prior therapies, demonstrating its role as a treatment option for difficult-to-treat cases.

In a phase II trial, daratumumab monotherapy showed an overall response rate of about 30% in patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma, indicating its efficacy in this challenging patient population.

Daratumumab: First Global Approval. McKeage, K.[2018]

Daratumumab, a monoclonal antibody targeting CD38, has shown significant efficacy as a monotherapy in relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma, achieving an overall response in about one-third of patients, with rapid and durable effects.

In combination with other treatments like bortezomib or lenalidomide, daratumumab significantly prolonged progression-free survival, although the overall survival benefit is still being evaluated, and it was generally well tolerated with manageable side effects.

Iberdomide combined with dexamethasone demonstrated meaningful clinical activity in heavily pretreated patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma, achieving an overall response rate of 32% in the dose-escalation cohort and 26% in the dose-expansion cohort, indicating its potential effectiveness even in difficult-to-treat cases.

The treatment was generally safe, with a recommended phase 2 dose established at 1.6 mg, although some patients experienced serious adverse events, including neutropenia and infections, highlighting the need for careful monitoring during treatment.

The antibody-drug conjugate MEDI2228 enhances the effectiveness of immunotherapies for multiple myeloma by activating key signaling pathways that increase CD38 expression and improve immune response, even in drug-resistant cancer cells.

In combination with the CD38 monoclonal antibody daratumumab, MEDI2228 significantly boosts NK cell-mediated cytotoxicity against multiple myeloma cells, suggesting a promising strategy for improving treatment outcomes in patients.

The therapy showed a favorable safety profile, with 93.5% of patients experiencing cytokine release syndrome (CRS) that was manageable and reversible, and no dose-limiting toxicities reported across the tested dosages.
