About this study
Official title: Phase II Study of the Combination of Elotuzumab With Lenalidomide as Maintenance Therapy Post Autologous Stem Cell Transplant in Patients With Multiple Myeloma
This phase II trial studies how well elotuzumab works when given with lenalidomide as maintenance therapy after transplant in patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma who underwent transplant using their own stem cells (autologous transplant). Maintenance therapy is treatment that is given to help keep cancer from coming back after it has disappeared following the initial treatment. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as elotuzumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Biological therapies, such as lenalidomide, may stimulate or suppress the immune system in different ways and stop cancer cells from growing. Adding elotuzumab to standard maintenance therapy with lenalidomide may work better in treating patients with multiple myeloma who have undergone transplant.
Read the detailed description
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
- Establish activity of elotuzumab and lenalidomide in the maintenance setting post autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT) in myeloma patients.
II. Progression free survival (PFS).
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
- Progression free survival 2. II. Overall survival. III. Determine incidence of secondary primary malignancy. IV. Evaluate the best response rate (stringent complete response [sCR]/very good partial response [VGPR]/partial response [PR]) based on International Myeloma Working Group (IMWG) criteria.
- Evaluate time to progression. VI. Evaluate time to next therapy. VII. Evaluate the tolerability and toxicity. VIII. Perform MD Anderson Symptom Inventory (MDASI)-Myeloma symptom evaluation.
OUTLINE:
Patients receive elotuzumab intravenously (IV) over 2-4 hours on days 1, 8, 15, and 21 of courses 1-2 and on day 1 of each subsequent course. Patients also receive lenalidomide orally (PO) on days 1-28. Courses repeat every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up at 30 days.

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Progression free survival
Will be estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method. The log-rank test will be performed to test the difference in time-to-event distributions between patient groups. Cox proportional hazards model may be used to include multiple covariates in the time-to-event analysis.
Measured: The time from autologous stem cell transplantation to the time of clinical progression, death, whichever occurs first or the time of last contact, assessed up to 48 months
Secondary outcomes (4)
Response rate
Estimated along with 95% confidence intervals.
Measured: Up to 48 months
Incidence of new primary malignancy
Estimated along with 95% confidence intervals.
Measured: Up to 48 months
Overall survival
Will be estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method. The log-rank test will be performed to test the difference in time-to-event distributions between patient groups. Cox proportional hazards model may be used to include multiple covariates in the time-to-event analysis.
Measured: Up to 48 months
Incidence of toxicity
Toxicity data will be summarized by frequency tables. Per-treated analysis will be used to include any patient who received the treatment regardless of the eligibility nor the duration or dose of the treatment received. The intensity (severity) of adverse events will be assessed using the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events, version 4.0.
Measured: Up to 48 months

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 2 study testing Elotuzumab, Lenalidomide and Questionnaire Administration in people with Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation Recipient and Plasma Cell Myeloma, run by M.D. Anderson Cancer Center 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 11 inclusion and 10 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: under way, not looking for participants, as of the sponsor's last update on 6 Oct 2026. 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.
Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.
Are results available for this study?
This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.
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?
Progression free survival (time frame: The time from autologous stem cell transplantation to the time of clinical progression, death, whichever occurs first or the time of last contact, assessed up to 48 months). 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 6 Oct 2026.
