Isa-Pom-Dex in Elderly/Frail Subjects With RRMM (NCT05911321)

Study of Isatuximab Plus Pomalidomide and Dexamethasone in Highly Toxicity-vulnerable Subjects With Relapsed or Refractory Multiple Myeloma

🔵 Active, Not Recruiting Phase2 💊 Investigational Drug / Biologic Sponsor: UNC Lineberger Comprehensive Cancer Center

🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)

This research study aims to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the combination of isatuximab, pomalidomide, and dexamethasone (Isa-Pd) for the treatment of relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM), which refers to multiple myeloma that has returned or has not responded to prior treatment. The study will specifically investigate the impact of administering lower-than-standard doses of pomalidomide and dexamethasone. Using lower doses of pomalidomide and dexamethasone in this setting has not been approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

Who can join: To join this study, participants generally need to meet the listed inclusion criteria (7 items) and avoid the listed exclusions (7 items).

Instant Checklist

Check every box below. If you can check all of them, you may meet the study's basic screening requirements (final eligibility is confirmed by the site team).

Usually NOT eligible if any of the following apply:

  • Exclusion Criteria: All subjects meeting any of the listed exclusion criteria at baseline with be excluded from study participation.
  • Anti-myeloma treatment within 2 weeks of cycle 1 day 1
  • Prior treatment with pomalidomide
  • Any monoclonal antibody therapy within the previous 30-days
  • Anti-CD38 monoclonal antibody therapy within the previous 6 months
  • Autologous stem cell transplantation within 12 weeks of day 1 of cycle 1
  • Subjects felt to not be candidates by treating physician for any systemic therapy due to excessive comorbidities, frailty, impaired performance status, or other severe limitations. Such limitations can be conceptualized generally as making subjects exceedingly high risk for any systemic treatment. These limitations often stem from medical comorbidities unrelated to MM and they are hence unlikely to improve with MM therapy.
