Detailed Description

This was a phase 3, multicenter, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group study of the efficacy and safety of CC-5013 plus oral pulse high-dose dexamethasone and oral pulse high-dose dexamethasone therapy alone in subjects with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma. Eligible subjects were randomized in a 1:1 ratio to 1 of 2 treatment groups: Subjects in the CC-5013/Dex treatment group took 25 mg of CC-5013 orally once daily on Days 1 to 21 and a matching placebo capsule once daily on Days 22 to 28 of each 28-day cycle; Subjects in the Placebo/Dex treatment group took 1 placebo capsule on Days 1 to 28 of each 28-day cycle. Subjects in both treatment groups took 40 mg of dexamethasone orally once daily on Days 1 to 4, 9 to 12, and 17 to 20 of each 28-day cycle for the first 4 cycles of therapy. Beginning with Cycle 5, the dose of dexamethasone was reduced to 40 mg orally once daily on Days 1 to 4 for the remaining cycles.

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Time to Tumor Progression (TTP)
Time Frame: 60 weeks (median Time To Progression of CC-5013/Dex treatment group)
Time to progression (TTP) was calculated as the time from randomization to the first documentation of progressive disease based on the myeloma response determination criteria developed by Bladé et. al., Br J Haematol 1998; 102:1115-1123.
60 weeks (median Time To Progression of CC-5013/Dex treatment group)

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Overall Survival
Time Frame: 170 weeks (median overall survival of CC-5013/Dex treatment group)
Overall survival was calculated as the time from randomization to death from any cause.
170 weeks (median overall survival of CC-5013/Dex treatment group)
Myeloma Response
Time Frame: Up to Unblinding (07 Jun 2005)
The overall confirmed response that was maintained for ≥6 weeks. Complete Response (CR):Disappearance of monoclonal paraprotein. Remission Response (RR):75-99% reduction in monoclonal paraprotein/90-99% reduction in 24-hr urinary light chain excretion. Partial Response (PR):50-74% reduction in monoclonal paraprotein/50-89% reduction in 24-hr urinary light chain excretion. Stable Disease (SD):Criteria for PR or PD not met. Plateau Phase:If PR, stable monoclonal paraprotein (within 25% above or below nadir)/stable soft tissue plasmacytomas. Progressive Disease (PD):Disease worsens.
Up to Unblinding (07 Jun 2005)
Time to First Worsening of Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) Performance Status Scale (Best Score=0, Fully Active, Able to Carry on All Pre-disease Performance Without Restriction; Worst Score=5, Dead.)
Time Frame: 30 weeks (mean time to first worsening of ECOG performance status for CC-5013/Dex treatment group)
The time to first worsening on the ECOG Performance Scale was calculated as the time from randomization to the date of the first worsening compared to the last ECOG evaluation obtained prior to randomization.
30 weeks (mean time to first worsening of ECOG performance status for CC-5013/Dex treatment group)
