  12. Patients unwilling or unable to comply with the protocol or known mental or physical illness that would interfere with cooperation with the requirements of the trial or confound the results or interpretation of the results of the trial and, in the opinion of the treating investigator, would make the patient inappropriate for entry into the study.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Fraction of Participants Achieving Overall Response
Time Frame: Up to 3 years
Overall response rate (ORR) will be reported as the fraction of participants achieving either complete response (CR) or partial response (ORR = CR + PR) to study treatment. Response to therapy will be assessed by treating physician using International Myeloma Working Group 2016 response criteria.
Up to 3 years

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Overall Survival (OS)
Time Frame: Up to 3 years
Overall survival (OS) will be defined as the time elapsed from the start of treatment until death. For surviving patients, follow-up will be censored at the date of last contact.
Up to 3 years
Duration of Response (DoR)
Time Frame: Up to 3 years
Duration of response is defined as the elapsed time from date of partial response (PR) or better to the date of progressive disease (PD) or death, whichever is first.
Up to 3 years
Minimal Residual Disease Negative Complete Response Rate
Time Frame: Up to 3 years
Minimum residual disease negative (MRD negative) complete response (CR) rate will be reported as the fraction of participants achieving CR who show less than one myeloma cell per million bone marrow cells after protocol therapy. Response to therapy will be assessed using International Myeloma Working Group 2016 response criteria.
Up to 3 years
Progression-Free Survival (PFS)
Time Frame: Up to 3 years
Progression-free survival (PFS) will be defined as the time elapsed from the start of treatment to the date of documented progression or death, whichever comes first. For surviving participants without progression who begin alternative treatment, PFS will be censored at the last date of documented progression-free status prior to starting alternative treatment. Similarly, losses to follow up will be censored at the last date of documented progression-free status.
Up to 3 years
Rate of Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events
Time Frame: Up to 10 months
Safety and tolerability of assigned protocol treatment will be reported as the rate of treatment-related toxicity, including serious adverse events (SAEs), grade 3 or higher adverse events, and all-grade adverse events (AEs), in study participants using the National Cancer Institute (NCI) Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 5.0, as assessed by treating physician.
Up to 10 months
