A Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Belantamab Mafodotin in Combination With Standard of Care in Participants With Relapsed-Refractory Multiple Myeloma (RRMM)

May 30, 2026 updated by: GlaxoSmithKline

A Phase 2, Multicenter, Open Label, Non-randomized Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Extended Dosing of Belantamab Mafodotin in Different Combinations With Standard of Care Regimens in Participants With Relapsed-refractory Multiple Myeloma (DREAMM-15)

This study is for adults with multiple myeloma (a type of blood cancer) that has come back after being treated earlier or isn't responding to the current treatment.

The main goal is to find out if the study drug, belantamab mafodotin, given less often (on an extended schedule) with other cancer medicines, can still treat the cancer effectively while causing fewer side effects, especially those affecting the eyes. The study will also look at how well the treatment works overall and how safe it is when administered to the participants.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Overall Response Rate (ORR)
Time Frame: Up to approximately 52 months
ORR is defined as the percentage of participants with a confirmed partial response [PR] or better (i.e., PR, very good partial response (VGPR), complete response [CR], stringent complete response [sCR]). Responses will be assessed using International Myeloma Working Group (IMWG) criteria.
Up to approximately 52 months

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Complete Response Rate (CRR)
Time Frame: Up to approximately 52 months
CRR is defined as the percentage of participants with a confirmed CR or better (i.e., CR, sCR).
Up to approximately 52 months
Minimal Residual Disease (MRD) Negativity Rate
Time Frame: Up to approximately 52 months
MRD negativity rate is defined as the percentage of participants who achieve MRD negative status (as assessed by Next generation sequencing [NGS] at 10^-5 threshold) at least once during the time of confirmed CR or better response as per IMWG.
Up to approximately 52 months
Duration of Response (DoR)
Time Frame: Up to approximately 52 months
DoR is defined as the time from first documented evidence of PR or better until PD or death due to any cause.
Up to approximately 52 months
Number of participants with adverse events (AEs), Serious adverse events (SAEs) by severity
Time Frame: Up to approximately 52 months
Up to approximately 52 months
Number of participants with AEs leading to dose modifications or AEs leading to treatment discontinuation
Time Frame: Up to approximately 52 months
Up to approximately 52 months
Number of Participants With Ocular Findings on Ophthalmic Examination by severity
Time Frame: Up to approximately 52 months
Up to approximately 52 months
Proportion of participants showing concordance between patient-reported ocular symptoms and ophthalmic examination findings
Time Frame: Up to approximately 52 months
Ophthalmic examination findings will be summarized, and contingency table will be constructed to assess the concordance between the results from patient questionnaires (Ocular Surface Disease Index [OSDI], PRO-CTCAE ocular scale, and PROSIM-Q) and findings from clinician assessments (CTCAE for eye disorders and Keratopathy and Visual Acuity [KVA] grading scale). The proportion of participants showing concordance will be calculated from this analysis.
Up to approximately 52 months
