About this study

Official title: A Phase I Study of Melphalan, Bendamustine, and Carfilzomib for Autologous Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation in Patients With Multiple Myeloma

This is a phase I clinical trial. Patients with a diagnosis of multiple myeloma undergoing autologous transplantation will receive a preparative regimen of melphalan, bendamustine, and carfilzomib. We hypothesize that the addition of carfilzomib to a conditioning regimen of melphalan and bendamustine in the setting of autologous transplantation for multiple myeloma is feasible and safe.

What is being measured

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

  1. Absence of Dose Limiting Toxicity

    An absence of neutrophil engraftment by Day +22, absence of platelet engraftment by Day +35, and any grade 4 GI toxicity or any >/= grade 3 non-hematologic toxicity as defined by the common toxicity criteria, which is deemed by the DSMB as probably related to the study protocol.

    Measured: Assessed daily (while inpatient) through clinical and laboratory examinations up to 90 days.

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Neutrophil Engraftment

    Engraftment of Neutrophils: ANC recovery is defined as an absolute neutrophil count (ANC) of ≥ 0.5 x 109/L for three consecutive laboratory values obtained on different days. The day used as neutrophil engraftment is the date of the first of three laboratory values.

    Graft Failure: Graft failure includes failure to achieve neutrophil engraftment by day 22.

    Measured: Assessed daily (while inpatient) through clinical and laboratory examinations up to 90 days.

  2. Platelet Engraftment

    Engraftment of Platelets: Platelet engraftment is defined as a platelet count ≥ 20 x 109/L for 3 consecutive measurements obtained on different days. The patient must not have received a platelet infusion for seven consecutive days prior to the first day being considered. The day used as platelet engraftment is the date of the first of three laboratory values.

    Measured: Assessed daily (while inpatient) through clinical and laboratory examinations up to 90 days.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Cohort 1: Carfilzomib 15 mg/m2, Cohort 2: Carfilzomib 20 mg/m2 and Cohort 2b: Carfilzomib 20 mg/m2 in people with Multiple Myeloma, run by Corewell Health West at 1 site in United States.

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 16 inclusion and 13 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 26 Jul 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. 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 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

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

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 26 Jul 2024). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Absence of Dose Limiting Toxicity (time frame: Assessed daily (while inpatient) through clinical and laboratory examinations up to 90 days.). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 26 Jul 2024.
