Un ensayo que compara dos tratamientos en pacientes con mieloma recién diagnosticados que no son elegibles para trasplante (KRdvsRd)

17 de septiembre de 2026 actualizado por: Fondazione EMN Italy Onlus

Carfilzomib - Lenalidmida - Dexametasona (KRd) versus Lenalidomi - Dexametasona (Rd) en pacientes con mieloma recién diagnosticados que no son elegibles para trasplante autólogo de células madre: un ensayo aleatorizado de fase III

The combination of lenalidomide plus low-dose dexamethasone (Rd) is considered the new standard for elderly newly diagnosed multiple myeloma (NDMM) patients. The combination carfilzomib plus lenalidomide-dexamethasone (KRd) in relapsed-refractory MM patients improved the progression-free survival (PFS) of approximately 1 year compared to standard Rd treatment. In a small phase 2 trial (23 pts) the KRd combination in elderly NDMM pts showed a complete response (CR) rate of 79% and a PFS at 3 years of 80%. Cardiovascular adverse events are the most limiting toxicities, especially in elderly patients.

Descripción detallada

This protocol is a randomized, multicenter study designed to determine the MRD negativity and the PFS of KRd treatment regimen.

Patients will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive carfilzomib-lenalidomide-dexamethasone (KRd - Arm A) or lenalidomide-dexamethasone (Rd - Arm B).

Patients will be stratified basing on international staging system (ISS) and fitness status using a web-based procedure completely concealed to study participants.

All consecutive patients ≥ 65 years with newly diagnosed MM will be enrolled in a large randomized study during a period of 24 months.

Patients will be treated until disease progression or intolerance to the therapy. The only exception is for patients enrolled in KRd arm who achieve at least a VGPR during the first year of treatment and in sustained MRD negativity (MRD negative at least at 10-5 after one and two years of therapy): these patients will stop carfilzomib administration after 2 years, whereas treatment with lenalidomide and dexamethasone will be continued.
