Isatuximab During Stem Cell Collection and Transplant in Patients With Multiple Myeloma and Lymphoma

July 22, 2026 updated by: Divaya Bhutani

Randomized Phase 2 Trial of Isatuximab During Autologous Stem Cell Collection and Transplantation Period in Patients With Multiple Myeloma, Relapsed Hodgkin's and Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma

The purpose of this study is to see if Isatuximab can alter the immune system in patients with multiple myeloma or lymphoma upon recovery from the autologous stem cell transplantation. The investigators will see if Isatuximab makes changes to the immune system so that upon recovery from the transplant, the immune system can fight the cancer. This study will have two arms. On one arm (control arm), participants will receive standard transplant procedures and on the other arm (experimental arm), participants will receive Isatuximab in addition to the standard transplant procedures. The assignment to these arms is done randomly (determined by chance, like flipping a coin) by a computer. Each participant will have about 66% chance of getting on the experimental arm and about 33% chance of getting on the control arm.

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Detailed Description

Relapse post-autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) remains a major challenge in the treatment of multiple myeloma (MM) and Lymphoma. The immune reconstitution post-ASCT has a major impact on the outcomes of ASCT, however effective methods to improve upon immune reconstitution have not been developed and the use of novel immunomodulators remains relatively unexplored. In addition, numerous studies have demonstrated the profound impact of graft composition on transplant outcomes, but not a single prospective study has addressed this issue successfully. In this study, the investigators intend to test a novel double pronged method of changing the immune repertoire post ASCT by modifying graft composition and improving effector T cell recovery and function post ASCT. In this study, the investigators intend to generate new information on immune modulation post-ASCT. In addition, the CD38 antibodies have not been evaluated as therapy for B-cell non-Hodgkin Lymphoma (NHL). If this study shows significant immunomodulator activity of this approach, cluster of differentiation 38 (CD38) antibodies could be further evaluated in combination with ASCT in NHL.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No
