About this study

Official title: Phase 3B, Randomized Trail of Revlimid® (Lenalidomide) Versus Placebo Maintenance Therapy Following Melphalan Prednisone Velcade (Bortezomib) Induction Therapy In Newly Diagnosed Multiple Myeloma

The purpose of this study is to compare the safety and efficacy of Lenalidomide versus Placebo maintenance following melphalan, prednisone and velcade induction therapy in newly diagnosed multiple myeloma.

After the study is unblinded, subjects in treatment Arm A (Len 10 mg) will remain on study therapy at the Investigator's discretion and subjects in treatment Arm B (placebo), will be discontinued from study treatment. Subjects who discontinued from study treatment for any reason will enter the LTFU Phase.

Read the detailed description

The planned total number of evaluable subjects for PFS was approximately 351 (234 in the lenalidomide treatment arm; 117 in the placebo treatment arm) and the study will be conducted in European countries. However, due to the significant enrollment challenges and the changes in the NDMM treatment practices in subjects who are not eligible for transplant, such as the recent approval of Revlimid in NDMM setting, the DMC recommended to close study enrollment. Study enrollment was closed on 12 October 2015.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Overall Survival (OS)

    Is defined as the time from the date of randomization to the date of death due to any cause.

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Safety; Adverse Events (AE) [type, frequency, and severity of AEs, and relationship of AEs to investigational product (IP) SAEs, laboratory abnormalities, hospitalizations, and SPMs

    An adverse event (AE) is any noxious, unintended, or untoward medical occurrence that may appear or worsen in a subject during the course of a study.

    Measured: Approximately 6 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Lenalidomide in people with Multiple Myeloma, run by Celgene at 73 sites in 5 countries.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 24 inclusion and 20 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 14 Apr 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 73 sites in France, Italy, Spain, Belgium, Greece. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Overall Survival (OS) (time frame: Approximately 6 years). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02112175, which also lists 5 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 14 Apr 2021.
