Summary

This trial is testing a combination of two drugs and radiation therapy to treat patients with plasmacytoma. The drugs help stop cancer growth and boost the immune system, while radiation kills the cancer cells.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with plasmacytoma or multiple myeloma who can take daily aspirin, swallow pills, and have a life expectancy over 3 months. Women must avoid pregnancy and men must not donate sperm during the study. Participants need functioning liver and kidneys, an ECOG status of 0-1, and meet specific blood criteria.
What is being tested?
The study tests if CC-486 combined with lenalidomide and radiation therapy is safe/effective against plasmacytoma. It includes two groups: one with newly diagnosed or recurrent solitary plasmacytoma/lytic lesion; another with relapsed multiple myeloma suitable for radiation.
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may include digestive issues due to oral medication intake, allergic reactions to the drugs used (azacitidine, mannitol, thalidomide), changes in blood counts leading to increased infection risk or bleeding problems, fatigue from treatment regimen.

Other Research
CC-486, a hypomethylating agent, works by inhibiting DNA methylation, which can reactivate tumor suppressor genes and induce cancer cell death. Lenalidomide, an immunomodulatory drug, enhances the immune system's ability to attack cancer cells, inhibits angiogenesis (formation of new blood vessels that feed tumors), and directly induces cancer cell apoptosis. Radiation therapy uses high-energy radiation to damage the DNA of cancer cells, leading to cell death and tumor shrinkage. These treatments are crucial for Plasmacytoma patients as they target the cancer cells through different mechanisms, potentially leading to more effective and comprehensive treatment outcomes.
