About this trial
This is an open-label, single arm, multicenter, interventional study with Dara-VRD followed by cilta-cel in high-risk smoldering multiple myeloma (SMM) patients.
The primary objectives of this trial, related with efficafy and safety of the treatment, are i) to evaluate the proportion of high-risk SMM patients with undetectable minimal residual disease (MRD) at 6 months, 12 months, and thereafter every 12 months up to 5 years after cilta-cel administration as well as the sustained undetectable MRD rate in the intent-to-treat (ITT) population; ii) to annotate frequency and severity of adverse events (AE) and serious adverse events (SAE), as well as data from laboratory tests aslo related with safety such as Immunoglobulin (Ig) G levels, complete blood count (CBC) cytopenia adn T-cell populations. Secondary objectives are related with response to therapy and will measure different categories of response and survival.
Eligibility criteria
Qualifiers
Serum M-protein ≥2 gm/dL
Involved to uninvolved FLC ratio ≥20
BMPC % ≥20% to <40% OR ii) Presence of ≥95% of BMPC with an aberrant phenotype within the BMPC compartment and immunoparesis present defined as a reduction of at least 25% below the lower normal limit for ≥1 uninvolved immunoglobulin isotype (only IgG, IgA and IgM will be considered).
A male participant must wear a condom when engaging in any activity that allows for passage of ejaculate to another person during the study and for 1 year after receiving the cilta-cel infusion. If the male participant's partner is a female of childbearing potential, the male participant must use condoms (with or without spermicide) and the female partner of the male participant must also be practicing a highly effective method of contraception. A male participant who is vasectomized must still use a condom (with or without spermicide), but the partner is not required to use contraception.
Disqualifiers
Noninvasive cervical cancer treated within the last 24 months that is considered completely cured.
Other comorbidity which would interfere with subject's ability to participate in trial, eg, uncontrolled infection, uncompensated heart, or lung disease.
Any medical or psychiatric illness that could, in the investigator's opinion, potentially interfere with the completion of treatment according to this protocol.
History of neurodegenerative disease (eg, Parkinson or stroke within 6 months).
