Study Summary

This trial is testing whether adding daratumumab to standard treatment for AL amyloidosis improves outcomes.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with newly diagnosed systemic AL amyloidosis, which affects their organs. They must have measurable disease levels and be in a stable enough condition to participate (ECOG Performance Status 0-2). People can't join if they plan on having a stem cell transplant soon, have serious heart issues or infections like HIV or hepatitis B/C, severe neuropathy, or are being treated for multiple myeloma.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests the effectiveness and safety of adding Daratumumab to the CyBorD treatment regimen (Cyclophosphamide, Bortezomib, Dexamethasone) versus using CyBorD alone in patients who've just been diagnosed with AL amyloidosis.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects include reactions at the injection site, blood disorders like anemia and low platelets, nerve damage that could cause numbness or pain in hands and feet (neuropathy), increased risk of infection due to immune suppression by drugs used in treatment.

2Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: CyBorD plus DaratumumabExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Participants will receive dexamethasone (20 mg orally or IV dose as premedication and 20 mg on the day after daratumumab dosing) followed by 1800 mg of daratumumab subcutaneously followed by cyclophosphamide (300 mg/m^2 orally or IV dose weekly) and bortezomib (1.3 mg/m^2 subcutaneous injection weekly) on Days 1, 8, 15, 22 in every 28-day cycle for a maximum of 6 cycles. Daratumumab will be administered weekly for the first 8 weeks (2 cycles), then every 2 weeks for 4 cycles (cycles 3-6), and then every 4 weeks until progression of disease or subsequent therapy for a maximum of 2 years.
Group II: CyBorD alone (cyclophosphamide/bortezomib/dexamethasone)Active Control3 Interventions
Participants will receive dexamethasone (40 milligrams [mg] orally or intravenous [IV] dose), followed by cyclophosphamide (300 milligram per meter square [mg/m^2] orally or IV dose), then bortezomib (1.3 mg/m^2 subcutaneous injection) weekly on Days 1, 8, 15, 22 in every 28-day cycle for a maximum of 6 cycles.

Frequently Asked Questions

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

Is this study being conducted at multiple sites within the US?

"The study is based out of several locations, including the University of Pennsylvania Medical Center in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania and Mayo Clinic Arizona in Phoenix, Arizona. Including these two sites, a total of 35 clinical centres are participating."

Answered by AI

For what purpose is Daratumumab most often employed?

"Daratumumab is a medication used to treat synovitis, but it can also be effective against ophthalmia, sympathetic, and lung cancers as well as branch retinal vein occlusion."

Answered by AI

Does Daratumumab have a history of being successful in other medical trials?

"Daratumumab is being studied in 1411 ongoing clinical trials, with 283 of those studies classified as Phase 3. The global reach for these studies is impressive, with 44000 locations participating. That said, many of thePhase 3 studies are based in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania."

Answered by AI

What are the adverse effects of Daratumumab on patients?
