About this study

Official title: Multicenter Study of Pomalidomide, Cyclophosphamide, and Dexamethasone in Relapsed Refractory Myeloma: Safety Profile in Mexican Population

Despite available therapies, MM uniformly fatal and participants who have received prior lenalidomide (Len) and bortezomib have a median overall survival (OS) of 9 months.

Pomalidomide (Pom) plus low-dose dexamethasone (Dex) significantly improved efficacy parameters in terms of progression free survival (PFS), OS, and overall response (ORR) compared with high-dose Dex in participants with refractory or relapsed, and refractory MM, including participants with disease refractory to both bortezomib and lenalidomide.

Alkylating agents also represent standard therapies for participants with MM. There are some reports demonstrating combination of Len and continuous cyclophosphamide (Cy) achieve an ORR of 50% in Len refractory participants, suggesting Cy may be able to overcome resistance to Len.

The investigators aimed to assess the safety in Mexican MM participants in relapse/refractory stage of the triple combination: IV Cy in combination with Pom plus Dex until disease progression. A multicenter study is proposed.

Primary endpoint: Safety. Efficacy as secondary endpoint: PF, OS and ORR.

Read the detailed description

Multiple myeloma is a plasma cell malignancy with accounts for about 1% of all cancers. Despite available therapies, the disease remains uniformly fatal and participants who have received prior lenalidomide and bortezomib have a median overall survival of 9 months.

Combination therapy is often used in clinical practice. In an attempt to overcome drug/clone resistance, other report with pomalidomide, dexamethasone and cyclophosphamide (PomCyDex) show efficacy and safety information, regimen for refractory myeloma patients with higher overall response rate than pomalidomide and dexamethasone.

In this case a phase II trial scheme is proposed: 1. Pomalidomide at 4 mg orally on days 1-21 of a 28 day cycle, 2. Cyclophosphamide 300 mg IV on days 1 and 15 of a 28 day cycle; and 3. Dexamethasone 40 mg PO weekly. Participants who were >75 years of age or those who were known to be intolerant to 40 mg weekly dexamethasone are going to receive 20 mg dexamethasone on the same schedule.

Pomalidomide is a drug wide studied in American and European population, but not in México. Even it has been approved by local Regulatory authority, there is not any trial supporting data about safety and efficacy in Mexican population. Alkylating agents are very active in MM, and in combination with novel therapies, such as immunomodulatory drugs, has shown to enhance efficacy in relapsed/refractory setting.

It is proposed phase 2 study to assess safety and efficacy of treatment with Pomalidomide in combination with Cyclophosphamide and dexamethasone in a sample of Mexican RRMM participants from ISSSTE.

What is being measured

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

  1. Safety: Incidence of Treatment - Emergent Adverse Events

    Adverse events leading to death or to discontinuation from treatment, events classified grade 3 or higher, study drug-related events, and serious adverse events are going to be listed separately.

    Measured: 2 years

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Efficacy as secondary endpoints: progression free survival, overall survival and overall response rate

    For the secondary end point, ORR and its 95% confidence interval are going to be calculated for the study groups using the exact binomial method

    Measured: 2 years

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 8 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 14 Nov 2018. 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 Mexico. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact MARTHA A ALVARADO, MD (0445525600960, normoblasto@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Safety: Incidence of Treatment - Emergent Adverse Events (time frame: 2 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 NCT03601624, 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 Nov 2018.
