About this study

Official title: A Phase 1b, Open Label, Multicenter, Dose Escalation Study of Venetoclax and ABBV-838 Combination Therapy With Dexamethasone in Subjects With Relapsed or Refractory Multiple Myeloma

This is an open-label, multicenter clinical trial designed to evaluate the safety and potential efficacy of venetoclax and ABBV-838 combination therapy with dexamethasone in participants with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma (MM) who have received 2 or more prior lines of therapy for multiple myeloma (MM). The study will consist of 2 arms: Arm A and Arm B (if applicable). Each arm will have a dose escalation and dose expansion portion.

Read the detailed description

The study will consist of 2 arms: Arm A and Arm B (if applicable). Arm A dose escalation will investigate up to 3 doses of ABBV-838 at 3-week dosing intervals (Q3W) in combination with venetoclax and dexamethasone. Arm A dose expansion portion will investigate the ABBV-838 Q3W dosing interval with venetoclax and dexamethasone at the recommended phase two dose (RPTD) combination defined from the Dose Escalation portion.

Based on data from the ongoing ABBV-838 monotherapy study (Study M14-467) Arm B dose escalation may be conducted, if deemed necessary. If conducted, Arm B dose excalation will investigate up to 3 doses of ABBV-838 at either weekly (Q1W) or bi-weekly (Q2W) dosing intervals in combination with venetoclax and dexamethasone. Arm B dose expansion portion will investigate either the ABBV-838 Q1W or Q2W dosing interval in combination with venetoclax and dexamethasone at the RPTD combination defined from the Dose Escalation portion.

What is being measured

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

  1. Maximum tolerated dose (MTD), and recommended phase two dose (RPTD) of venetoclax and ABBV-838 combination therapy when administered with dexamethasone

    The MTD and the RPTD of venetoclax and ABBV-838 combination therapy with dexamethasone will be determined during the dose escalation phase of the study. Once the RPTD combination has been determined, the dose expansion portion will begin.

    Measured: Minimum first cycle of dosing (21 or 28 days, depending on arm)

  2. Number of participants with adverse events

    Measured: Up to approximately 2 years following the first dose of the last subject enrolled

Secondary outcomes (12)
  1. Maximum observed plasma concentration (Cmax) of venetoclax

    Measured: Approximately 43 or 57 days (Treatment Arm A and Treatment Arm B, respectively)

  2. Time to Cmax (Tmax) of venetoclax

    Measured: Approximately 43 or 57 days (Treatment Arm A and Treatment Arm B, respectively)

  3. Area under the plasma concentration-time curve over the 24-hour dose interval (AUC0-24) of venetoclax

    Measured: Approximately 43 or 57 days (Treatment Arm A and Treatment Arm B, respectively)

  4. Objective Response Rate (ORR)

    The Objective Response Rate (ORR) is defined as the proportion of subjects with a response (Stringent Complete Response [sCR], Complete Response [CR], Very Good Partial Response [VGPR] or Partial Response [PR]) based on the International Myeloma Working Group (IMWG) criteria.

    Measured: Cycle 2 Day 1 and Day 1 of every cycle thereafter for up to 2 years following the first dose of the last subject enrolled

  5. Cmax of ABBV-838

    Measured: Approximately 43 or 57 days (Treatment Arm A and Treatment Arm B, respectively)

  6. Tmax of ABBV-838

    Measured: Approximately 43 or 57 days (Treatment Arm A and Treatment Arm B, respectively)

  7. AUC over the dose interval (AUC0-τ) of ABBV-838

    Measured: Approximately 43 or 57 days (Treatment Arm A and Treatment Arm B, respectively)

  8. Total monoclonal anti-CS1 antibody (total mAb)

    Measured: Approximately 43 or 57 days (Treatment Arm A and Treatment Arm B, respectively)

  9. Monomethyl auristatin E (MMAE) toxin levels

    Measured: Approximately 43 or 57 days (Treatment Arm A and Treatment Arm B, respectively)

  10. Minimal Residual Disease (MRD)

    MRD will be assessed in the bone marrow by next generation sequencing (NGS). MRD negativity in bone marrow aspirates will be defined at 10-5 threshold as assessed by NGS.

    Measured: Cycle 4 Day 1 and treatment completion (up to 2 years following the first dose of the last subject enrolled)

  11. Terminal phase elimination rate constant (β) for ABBV-838

    Measured: Cycle 1 Day 1

  12. Terminal elimination half-life (t1/2) for ABBV-838

    Measured: Cycle 1 Day 1

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Venetoclax, ABBV-838 and Dexamethasone in people with Multiple Myeloma, run by AbbVie at 3 sites in Australia.

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 7 inclusion and 4 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: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 5 Jun 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites in Australia. 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?

The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

Maximum tolerated dose (MTD), and recommended phase two dose (RPTD) of venetoclax and ABBV-838 combination therapy when administered with dexamethasone (time frame: Minimum first cycle of dosing (21 or 28 days, depending on arm)). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 5 Jun 2017.
