KarMMa-9 Trial Summary

This trial compares the safety, efficacy and tolerance of a new drug to an existing one in people with multiple myeloma who have had a stem cell transplant.

Who is the study for?
Adults over 18 with newly diagnosed Multiple Myeloma who've had a stem cell transplant but didn't respond well. They should have completed specific induction therapy and be in good physical condition, without severe ongoing infections or previous gene/cell therapies.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial is testing if adding idecabtagene vicleucel (ide-cel) to lenalidomide maintenance therapy is better than lenalidomide alone for Multiple Myeloma patients post-transplant with suboptimal response.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects include reactions related to immune system activation, blood cell count changes, infection risk increase, and possible organ inflammation due to ide-cel; plus known risks of lenalidomide like blood clots and bone marrow suppression.
