Phase 2
Isatuximab in Combination With Rd Compared to Rd in Elderly Patients (Aged ≥70 Years) With NDMM
Condition(s) studied
Newly Diagnosed Multiple Myeloma
Investigational drug(s) / intervention(s)
Isatuximab-Irfc 20 MG/ML [Sarclisa]: Induction: 10mg/kg on day 1,8,15,22 in cycle 1, subsequently on day 1, 15; every 28 days (q28 days) Maintenance: 10mg/kg, day1, q28 days until progression or intolerance but for a maximum of 24 cycles from start of maintenance
Lenalidomide: Induction: 25mg\*, day 1-21, every 28 days (q28 days); Maintenance: 5-10mg, day 1-21, q28 days (according to individual tolerance) until progression or intolerance but for a maximum of 24 cycles from start of maintenance
\*) for patients with moderate renal impairment (30≤ GFR (MDRD formula) \< 50 mL/min) starting dose is 10 mg
Dexamethasone Oral: Induction:
Patients aged \<75 years: 40mg, once weekly; Patients aged ≥75 years: 20mg, once weekly
Study summary
As optimal tolerance is the key for developing new treatments for the very elderly population, the aim of the study is to compare the efficacy and tolerance of isatuximab in combination with lenalidomide+dexamethasone (Rd) versus Rd only in very elderly patients aged 70 years or older. ln sum, a clear and clinically highly relevant benefit is expected with the isatuximab-based triple combination compared to the standard Rd doublet.
Eligibility
Inclusion Criteria:

* Bilirubin \< 2 times the upper limit of normal (ULN), Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) \< 3 times the ULN
* absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥ 750/mm3 (growth factor support for max 3 days allowed to achieve this value)
* Hemoglobin \>8.0 g/dL (Use of erythropoietic stimulating factors and red blood cell \[RBC\] transfusion per institutional guidelines is allowed, however the most recent RBC transfusion may not have been done within 7 days prior to obtaining screening hemoglobin.)
* Platelet count \>50,000/mm3
* Calculated or measured creatinine clearance (CrCl) of ≥30 mL/min; Calculation should be based on the MDRD formula (age, gender, black/non- black, weight, height)
Exclusion Criteria:
* ECOG status \>2
* Patients unlikely to tolerate Rd
* Waldenström macroglobulinemia
* POEMS syndrome (polyneuropathy, organomegaly, endocrinopathy, monoclonal protein, and skin changes)
* Plasma cell leukemia (\> 2.0 x 10\^9/L circulating plasma cells by standard differential)
* Myelodysplastic syndrome
* Smoldering Myeloma and MGUS
* Second malignancy within the past 5 years except:
* Adequately treated basal cell or squamous cell skin cancer
* Carcinoma in situ of the cervix
* Prostate cancer ≤ Gleason score 6 with stable prostate-specific antigen (PSA over 12 months)
* Ductal breast carcinoma in situ with full surgical resection (i.e., negative margins)
* Treated medullary or papillary thyroid cancer
* Other tumors with low risk of recurrence/metastases and/or early stage R0 surgery
* History of or current amyloidosis
* Glucocorticoid therapy within the 14 days prior to randomization that exceeds an accumulated dose of 160 mg dexamethasone or 1000 mg prednisone
* Extended field radio therapy (more than 3 fields) within the 21 days prior to randomization
* Contraindication to isatuximab, dexamethasone, lenalidomide or any of the required concomitant drugs or supportive treatments, including hypersensitivity to antiviral drugs
* Active congestive heart failure (New York Heart Association \[NYHA\] Class III or IV), symptomatic ischemia, conduction abnormalities uncontrolled by conventional intervention, acute diffuse infiltrative pulmonary disease, pericardial disease, or myocardial infarction within 4 months prior to enrolment
* Active infection within the 14 days prior to randomization requiring systemic antibiotics and/or antiviral therapy
* Uncontrolled hypertension or uncontrolled diabetes despite medication
* Significant neuropathy (Grade 2 with pain or Grade 3 or higher) within the 14 days prior to randomization
* Known cirrhosis
* Known human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) seropositivity or active hepatitis C or hepatitis B infection (subjects with past hepatitis B virus \[HBV\] infection or resolved HBV infection defined as having a negative HBsAg test and a positive antibody to hepatitis B core antigen \[anti HBc\] antibody test are eligible; subjects positive for hepatitis C virus \[HCV\] antibody are eligible only if polymerase chain reaction \[PCR\] is negative for HCV RNA.)
* Participation in another interventional study within the 28 days prior to randomization
* Major surgery (except kyphoplasty) within the 28 days prior to randomization
* Any other clinically significant medical disease or social condition that, in the Investigator's opinion, may interfere with protocol adherence or a subject's ability to give informed consent, be compliant with study procedures, or provide accurate information.
Primary outcome measure(s)
- Proportion of patients with MRD (minimal residual disease) negativity (defined by NGF [next generation flow] at 10^-5) after end of induction treatment in the two arms. — After 8 months of induction treatment (8 cycles, each cyle is 28 days)
To demonstrate the benefit of isatuximab in combination with lenalidomide and low-dose dexamethasone followed by isatuximab and lenalidomide maintenance therapy in changing the proportion of patients with MRD negativity as compared to lenalidomide and low-dose dexamethasone followed by lenalidomide maintenance treatment in patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma (NDMM).
