Frontline T-cell Engager vs Autologous Stem Cell Transplant (ASCT) and Measurable Residual Disease (MRD)-Guided Sequential Intensification thERapy in Multiple Myeloma
Sponsor:

SCRI Development Innovations, LLC

Brief Summary:

This is an open-label, multi-site, Phase II randomized trial with response-adaptive design for newly diagnosed multiple myeloma (NDMM) participants who have had prior induction therapy. The primary objective of this study is to compare the rates of achieving undetectable measurable residual disease (MRD) in the bone marrow with elranatamab and daratumumab employed as post-induction consolidation and maintenance treatment (Arm A) versus autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT) followed by lenalidomide and daratumumab treatment (Arm B).

Detailed Description:

This is an open-label, multi-site, Phase II randomized trial with response-adaptive design for newly diagnosed multiple myeloma (NDMM) participants who had prior induction therapy with one proteasome inhibitor, lenalidomide, and an anti-CD38 Monoclonal antibody (mAb) for 16-24 weeks and obtained at least partial response (PR). Eligible participants will be randomized in equal allocation to receive either elranatamab and daratumumab as consolidation and maintenance treatment (Arm A) or to undergo autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT) followed by lenalidomide and daratumumab maintenance treatment (Arm B). Patients who have residual detectable disease by MRD assessment after one year of consolidation and maintenance will undergo "late intensification" and receive the alternative therapy. Patients who achieve sustained "MRD-negativity" on 2 consecutive assessments will discontinue treatment with observation for disease progression or MRD resurgence. Elranatamab is a humanized bispecific antibody which binds to BCMA on MM cells and CD3 on T cells. Elranatamab activates and directs T cells to induce a cytotoxic T-cell response against myeloma cells. Daratumumab is a CD-38 directed therapy.

                • 9. Any other issue that would impair the ability of the participant to receive or tolerate the planned treatment at the investigational site, to understand informed consent or any condition for which, in the opinion of the Investigator, participation would not be in the best interest of the participant (e.g., compromise the well-being) or that could prevent, limit, or confound the protocol-specified assessments.
                • 10. History of non-compliance with recommended medical treatments.
