Study Summary

This trial tests whether adding daratumumab to standard myeloma treatment is safe and improves outcomes.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for newly diagnosed multiple myeloma patients with measurable disease, specific organ damage, and certain blood and liver function levels. Participants must not have had more than one cycle of prior treatment. Women who can bear children and men must follow strict birth control rules.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests the safety and effectiveness of daratumumab combined with carfilzomib, lenalidomide, and dexamethasone in treating multiple myeloma. The goal is to determine if this drug mix is safe for patients.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects include immune system reactions, infusion-related reactions from daratumumab; blood clots or bone thinning from dexamethasone; kidney problems or low blood counts from lenalidomide; heart issues or lung complications from carfilzomib.

Group I: Cohort 2Experimental Treatment4 Interventions
Single arm, two-stage phase II trial of combination therapy (daratumumab, carfilzomib, lenalidomide, and dexamethasone for newly diagnosed multiple myeloma patients. Patients achieving ≥PR at end of 4 cycles will continue to receive the planned total of 8 cycles of combination therapy. Patients may go onto receiving additional maintenance phase therapy with lenalidomide under a separate treatment protocol. Patients ≤ PR after completing 4 cycles will go off study therapy.

Frequently Asked Questions

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

Has the efficacy of daratumumab been tested in other clinical trials?

"Research into daratumumab began in 2002 at Manitoba Blood & Marrow Transplant Program CancerCare Manitoba. To date, 1391 studies have been concluded and a further 752 are still ongoing, many of which are being conducted from Commack, New jersey."

Answered by AI

What diseases does daratumumab typically serve to remedy?

"Ophthalmia, sympathetic can often be managed through the use of daratumumab. Additionally, this drug has also been found to treat branch retinal vein occlusion, macular edema and those who have already undergone two rounds of systemic chemotherapy."

Answered by AI

How many health facilities are conducing this clinical research?

"As it stands, 7 medical facilities are hosting this particular trial. These sites can be found in Commack, Middletown and Basking Ridge as well other cities around the US. To make participation easier on you, try to select a location closest your current residence or place of work."

Answered by AI

Are there any open spots in this experiment at the present moment?

"No longer recruiting, this trial was initially posted on September 25th 2017 and last updated November 17 2022. Currently, there are 807 studies involving multiple myeloma accepting patients as welll as 752 trials for participants with daratumumab."

Answered by AI

Does the administration of daratumumab confer any risks to humans?

"Daratumumab has been judged to have a safety rating of 2. This is because while there are some data points that demonstrate its safety, efficacy remains unconfirmed as this trial only just entered Phase 2."

Answered by AI

What is the enrollment rate for this trial's participants?

"As of November 17th 2022, this trial has stopped accepting new patients. It first appeared on September 25 2017 and was last updated a few weeks ago. If you are interested in similar studies though, 807 trials for multiple myeloma and 752 for daratumumab are still enrolling participants."
