Study Summary

This trial is a Phase II study to determine the preliminary safety and efficacy of salvage radiation treatment after BCMA CAR-T therapy in subjects with RRMM.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults over 18 with relapsed refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM) who have had standard BCMA CAR-T cell therapy but still show active disease on scans. They must be able to consent and have at least one treatable myeloma lesion. Pregnant women or those planning chemotherapy within two weeks of radiation are excluded.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests the safety and effectiveness of salvage radiation treatment after BCMA CAR-T therapy in patients with RRMM. Up to five areas can receive radiation, with doses adjusted by the physician. The main goals are to see how many respond to treatment and how long their response lasts.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects from salvage radiation may include skin irritation, fatigue, nausea, loss of appetite, and localized pain where the radiation is targeted. Long-term risks could involve damage to nearby organs or tissues.
