A Safety Study of Carfilzomib, Cyclophosphamide & Dexamethasone Prior to ASCT in Patients With Newly Diagnosed Myeloma (11-MM-01)

October 16, 2017 updated by: Criterium, Inc.

A Multi-Center Phase Ib, Open-Label, Dose-Finding Pilot Study to Evaluate the Combination of Carfilzomib and Cyclophosphamide With Dexamethasone Prior to ASCT in Patients With Transplant Eligible Newly Diagnosed Myeloma

This is a dose finding pilot study to evaluate the safety and determine the maximum tolerated dose of the combination of carfilzomib and cyclophosphamide with dexamethasone (Car-Cy-Dex) prior to autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT) in patients with newly diagnosed transplant eligible multiple myeloma.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

This is a dose finding pilot study to evaluate the safety and determine the maximum tolerated dose of the combination of carfilzomib and cyclophosphamide with dexamethasone (Car-Cy-Dex) prior to autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT) in patients with newly diagnosed transplant eligible multiple myeloma. The study will also explore the efficacy of Car-Cy-Dex including overall response after induction therapy, overall response at 3 and 6 months post ASCT, and time to progression, progression free survival, and time to next therapy if it occurs within 6 months post ASCT.

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Cytopathologically or histologically confirmed diagnosis of MM
  • Measurable disease, as indicated by one or more of the following:
  • Serum M-protein ≥ 1.0 g/dL
  • Urine Bence Jones protein ≥ 200 mg/24 hr
  • Elevated Free Light Chain as per the International Myeloma Working Group (IMWG) criteria
  • Males and females ≥ 18 years of age
  • Life expectancy of more than 5 months
  • Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) Performance Status of 0-2
  • Adequate hepatic function, with bilirubin < 2 times the upper limit of normal (ULN), and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) < 3.5 times ULN
  • Serum Creatinine Clearance(CrCl) ≥ 30 mL/min, either measured or calculated using a standard formula (e.g. Cockcroft and Gault)
  • Additional Laboratory Requirements
  • Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥1.0 x 109/L
  • Hemoglobin ≥8 g/dL [transfusion permitted]
  • Platelet count ≥50.0 x 109/L
  • Screening ANC should be independent of granulocyte-and granulocyte/macrophage colony stimulating factor (G-CSF and GM-CSF) support for at least 1 week and of pegylated G-CSF for at least 2 weeks
  • Patients may receive RBC or platelet transfusions, if clinically indicated, in accordance with institutional guidelines
  • Written informed consent in accordance with federal, local, and institutional guidelines
  • Patients must agree to practice contraception
  • Male patients must agree not to donate semen or sperm.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Patients with non-secretory or hyposecretory MM
  • Prior treatment for MM (prior radiation therapy or dexamethasone up to 160 mg for spinal cord compression is allowed. Other limited field radiation involving ≤ 1/3 of the pelvic area is also allowed)
  • Plasma cell leukemia
  • Pregnant or lactating females
  • Major surgery within 21 days prior to first dose
  • Congestive heart failure (CHF) (New York Heart Association class III to IV), symptomatic ischemia, conduction abnormalities uncontrolled by conventional intervention or myocardial infarction in the previous six months
  • Acute active infection requiring systemic antibiotics, antivirals, or antifungals within 14 days prior to first dose
  • Patients receiving active treatment or intervention for any other malignancy or patients who, at the Investigator's discretion, may require active treatment or intervention for any other malignancy within 8 months of starting study treatment.
  • Serious psychiatric or medical conditions that could interfere with treatment
  • Significant neuropathy (Grade 3, Grade 4, or Grade 2 with pain) at the time of the first dose and/or within 14 days before study treatment
  • Contraindication to any of the required concomitant drugs, including antiviral (e.g. Valacyclovir) and proton-pump inhibitor (e.g. lansoprazole). Corticosteroid therapy in a dose equivalent to dexamethasone ≥ 1.5 mg/day or prednisone ≥ 10 mg/day. (Steroid use is allowed if necessary to treat spinal cord compression and/or hypocalcaemia.)
  • Patients in whom the required program of oral and IV fluid hydration is contraindicated, e.g. due to pre-existing pulmonary, cardiac, or renal impairment
  • Patients with primary systemic amyloidosis.
