About this study

Official title: A Phase 2 Evaluation of Daratumumab-Based Treatment in Newly Diagnosed Multiple Myeloma Patients With Renal Insufficiency

This phase II trial studies how well daratumumab-based therapy works in treating patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma with kidney failure. Daratumumab-based therapy includes daratumumab, bortezomib, dexamethasone, and thalidomide or lenalidomide. Daratumumab is a monoclonal antibody that may interfere with the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. Bortezomib is a drug that prevents myeloma cells from getting rid of their waste products, leading to being targeted for death. Dexamethasone is a steroid that is commonly used, either alone or in combination with other drugs, to treat multiple myeloma. Lenalidomide and thalidomide may stop the growth of multiple myeloma by blocking the growth of new blood vessels necessary for tumor growth. Giving daratumumab, bortezomib, dexamethasone, and thalidomide or lenalidomide may be a good way to treat patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma with kidney failure.

Read the detailed description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:

  1. To determine the proportion of patients with newly diagnosed myeloma and acute kidney injury (AKI) who have renal function recovery following 2 cycles (6 weeks) of treatment with a daratumumab-based induction regimen.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. Overall response rate at the end of 2 and 4 cycles of therapy. II. Adverse event profile of the combination in patients with AKI. III. Pharmacokinetic parameters of maximum concentration (Cmax), area under the curve (AUC), time to maximum concentration (tmax), clearance, and half life (t1/2) of daratumumab in combination treatment in the AKI population.

IV. Global assessment of renal function at cycle initiation including creatinine clearance (CrCl).

  1. Timeline of changes in pharmacodynamic markers of light chains, urine paraprotein, and serum paraprotein measures.

OUTLINE:

Patients receive daratumumab intravenously (IV) weekly of cycles 1-3 and on day 1 only of cycle 4, bortezomib subcutaneously (SC) on days 1, 4, 8, and 11, and dexamethasone IV or orally (PO) on days 1-4 of cycle 1 and on day 1 of cycles 2-4 and PO on days 8 and 15 of all cycles. Beginning cycle 2, patients may also receive lenalidomide PO daily on days 1-14 or thalidomide PO once daily (QD) on days 1-21. Treatment repeats every 21 days for 4 cycles in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up for 30 days.

What is being measured

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

  1. Change in creatinine clearance

    Renal function comparisons of creatinine clearance between methods for the cohort will be conducted, with the primary objective of change from baseline, using the same formula, serving as the analysis dataset.

    Measured: Screening until end of Cycle 4 at day 1(12 weeks), each cycle=21 days

Secondary outcomes (8)

  1. Pharmacokinetic parameters of Cmax

    Maximum concentrations for each patient obtained at the end of daratumumab infusion.

    Measured: Cycle 1 at day 1 (12 weeks) to Cycle 2 at Day 15 (12 Weeks), each cycle=21 days

  2. Pharmacokinetic parameters of AUC

    Area under the plasma concentration time curve from time 0-24 hours and extrapolated to infinity to understand dose exposures.

    Measured: Starting at Cycle 1 at day 1(12 weeks) to Cycle 2 at Day 15 (12 weeks), each cycle=21 days

  3. Pharmacokinetic parameters of CI

    Clearance for each patient to assess the effect of renal insufficiency and potential changes with myeloma treatment that includes daratumumab.

    Measured: Cycle 1 at day (12 weeks) 1 to Cycle 2 at Day 15 (12 weeks), each cycle=21 days

  4. Incidence of adverse events

    Will track grade 3, 4, and 5 adverse events collected clinically in the routine course of care, with particular interest in those associated with daratumumab. Subject incidence of all treatment emergent adverse events of interest will be tabulated by system organ class and preferred term. Tables of fatal adverse events, serious adverse events, adverse events leading to withdrawal from investigational product, other protocol-required therapies or from study, and adverse events of interest will also be provided. Relevant laboratory and vital sign (temperature, heart rate, respiratory rate, and blood pressure) data will be displayed by visit and time (when available), with Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE). Additionally, all laboratory data will be summarized by CTCAE grade, again, with grade 3, 4 and 5 values to be collected.

    Measured: Through study completion, an average of 1 year

  5. Overall response rate

    All efficacy assessments will follow International Myeloma Working Group (IMWG) uniform response criteria and be performed every cycle. Will be defined as the proportion of best overall response of stringent complete response (sCR), complete response (CR), very good partial response (VGPR), and partial response (PR).

    Measured: Through study completion, an average of 1 year

  6. Best overall response

    All efficacy assessments will follow IMWG uniform response criteria and be performed every cycle.

    Measured: Through study completion, an average of 1 year

  7. Progression free survival

    Will be defined as number of months from subject's first study dose date to the earlier of disease progression or death due to any cause.

    Measured: Time from randomization date of first documented progression or date of death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed up to 100 months

  8. Duration of response

    Will be summarized for all subjects overall, by formulation, by dose cohort level, and by formulation and dose cohort level along with 95% confidence intervals when applicable. Duration of therapy, dose density, and frequency of dose holds or reductions will also be recorded.

    Measured: Time from initiation of first response to first documented progression or death, from any cause, whichever came first, assessed up to 100 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Bortezomib, Daratumumab and Dexamethasone in people with Plasma Cell Myeloma and Renal Failure, run by Emory University 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 26 inclusion and 34 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 1 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 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?

The study was stopped early (reason given: Slow accrual). Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Change in creatinine clearance (time frame: Screening until end of Cycle 4 at day 1(12 weeks), each cycle=21 days). 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 NCT04352205.

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 1 Jul 2024.
