Multiple Myeloma

The purpose of this study is to identify multiple myeloma in the precancerous MGUS stage in order to reduce the risk of delayed diagnosis of multiple myeloma, decrease morbidity related to multiple myeloma at progression, and improve long term outcomes.

The purpose of the project is to set up a national, prospective, longitudinal, multicenter cohort study with associated satellites, a tumor registry platform, to document uniform data on characteristics, molecular diagnostics, treatment and course of disease, to collect patient-reported outcomes and to establish a decentralized biobank for patients with Multiple Myeloma in Germany.

The purpose of the study is to evaluate if firefighter exposure to hazardous compounds will increase the incidence of premalignant hematological states which subsequently increases the risk of the development of hematologic malignancies, and potentially other pathophysiological consequences.

This is a Phase I/II, modular, open-label, multicenter, dose escalation, and dose expansion/optimization study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, PK, immunogenicity, pharmacodynamics and efficacy of AZD0305 as monotherapy and in combination with other anticancer agents in participants with MM.

This is an interventional, modular, open-label, multicenter study to primarily evaluate the safety and tolerability of AZD0120 in adult participants with multiple myeloma (MM).

Multiple Myeloma (MM) is a cancer of the blood's plasma cells ( blood cell). The cancer is typically found in the bones and bone marrow (the spongy tissue inside of the bones) and can cause bone pain, fractures, infections, weaker bones, and kidney failure. Treatments are available, but MM can come back (relapsed) or may not get better (refractory) with treatment. This is a study to determine adverse events and change in disease symptoms of etentamig (ABBV-383) in adult participants with relapsed/refractory (R/R) MM. Etentamig (ABBV-383) is an investigational drug being developed for the treatment of R/R Multiple Myeloma (MM). This study is broken into 4 Arms; Arm A (Parts 1 and 2), Arm B and Arms C \& D. Arm A includes 2 parts: step-up dose optimization (Part 1) and dose expansion (Part 2). In Part 1, different level of step-up doses are tested followed by the target dose of etentamig (ABBV-383). In Part 2, the step-up dose identified in Part 1 (Dose A) will be used followed by the target dose A of etentamig (ABBV-383). In Arm B a flat dose of etentamig (ABBV-383) will be tested. In Arms C \& D, the step-up dose identified in Arm A will be used followed by the target dose of etentamig (ABBV-383) to investigate outpatient administration of etentamig (ABBV-383). Around 210 adult participants with relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma will be enrolled at approximately 50 sites across the world. Participants will receive etentamig (ABBV-383) as an infusion into the vein in 28 day cycles for approximately 3 years. There may be higher treatment burden for participants in this trial compared to their standard of care. Participants will attend regular visits during the study at a hospital or clinic. The effect of the treatment will be checked by medical assessments, blood tests, checking for side effects and questionnaires.

CO43923 is a platform study that will evaluate the safety, efficacy, and pharmacokinetics (PK) of multiple treatment combinations, as monotherapy or in combination, in participants with multiple myeloma (MM). The study is designed with the flexibility to open new treatment substudies as new treatments become available. Information regarding the opened substudies are found below.

Background: A person s tumor is studied for mutations. When cells are found that can attack the mutation in a person s tumor, the genes from those cells are studied to find the parts that make the attack possible. White blood cells are then taken from the person s body, and the gene transfer occurs in a laboratory. A type of virus is used to transfer the genes that make those white blood cells able to attack the mutation in the tumor. The gene transfer therapy is the return of those white blood cells back to the person. Objective: To see if gene transfer therapy of white blood cells can shrink tumors. Eligibility: People with certain metastatic cancer for which standard treatments have not worked. Design: Participants may complete screening under another protocol. Screening includes: * Getting tumor cells from a previous procedure * Medical history * Physical exam * Scans * Blood, urine, heart, and lung tests The study has 8 stages: 1. Screening tests repeated over 1-2 weeks. Participants will have leukapheresis: Blood is removed by a needle in one arm. A machine removes white blood cells. The rest of the blood is returned by a needle in the other arm. 2. Care at home over approximately 12 weeks. 3. Stopping therapy for 4-6 weeks while their cells are changed in a lab. 4. Hospital stay approximately 3-4 weeks for treatment. An IV catheter will be placed in the chest to administer drugs. 5. Patients on Arm 2 of the study will receive the first dose of pembrolizumab while in the hospital. Three additional doses will be given after the cell infusion 3 weeks apart. 6. Receiving changed cells by catheter. Then getting a drug over 1-5 days to help the cells live longer. 7. Recover in the hospital for 1-2 weeks. Participants will get drugs and have blood and urine tests. 8. Participants will take an antibiotic and maybe an antiviral for at least 6 months after treatment. They will have repeat screening tests at visits every few months for the first year, every 6 months for the second year, then as determined.

This is a Phase 2, open-label, single-arm, multicenter study to assess the antimyeloma activity and further characterize the safety, tolerability, PK, and PD of cemsidomide in combination with dexamethasone in participants with relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma (r/r MM).

Older survivors of blood cancer are at a high risk of accelerated biological aging, which increases their risk of developing multiple aging-related conditions. Whereas physical exercise can improve overall health, older cancer survivors do not meet the recommended physical activity, highlighting the need to develop behavioral interventions to increase adherence. Several other knowledge gaps exist to implement exercise interventions in older survivors of blood cancer; the dose and duration of exercise necessary to slow biological aging in older blood cancer survivors remain unknown. To bridge these gaps in knowledge, we have designed a Phase 2 randomized control trial to test the effects of behavioral and exercise interventions on various outcomes.

Multiple myeloma (MM) is a cancer of the blood's plasma cells. The cancer is typically found in the bones and bone marrow (the spongy tissue inside of the bones) and can cause bone pain, fractures, infections, weaker bones, and kidney failure. Treatments are available, but MM can come back (relapsed) or may not get better (refractory) with treatment. This is a study to determine change in disease symptoms of etentamig compared to standard available therapies in adult participants with relapsed/refractory (R/R) MM. Etentamig is an investigational drug being developed for the treatment of R/R MM. This study is broken into 2 Arms; Arm A and Arm B. In Arm A, participants will receive etentamig as a monotherapy. In Arm B, participants will receive the standard available therapy (SAT) identified by the Investigator during screening, in accordance with the local (or applicable) approved label, package insert, summary of product characteristics, and/or the institutional guidelines, as applicable. Around 380 adult participants with relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma will be enrolled at approximately 140 sites across the world. In Arm A participants will receive etentamig as an infusion into the vein in 28 day cycles, during the 3.5 year study duration. In Arm B, participants will receive the SAT identified by the Investigator during screening, in accordance with the local (or applicable) approved label, package insert, summary of product characteristics, and/or the institutional guidelines, as applicable, during the 3.5 year study duration. There may be higher treatment burden for participants in this trial compared to their standard of care. Participants will attend regular visits during the study at a hospital or clinic. The effect of the treatment will be checked by medical assessments, blood tests, checking for side effects and questionnaires.

The purpose of this study is to learn about the study medicine called elranatamab.This study aims to compare elranatamab to other medicines for the treatment of MM (a type of cancer). This study is seeking participants who: * Are 18 years of age or older and have MM. * Have received treatments before for MM. * Have MM that has returned or not responded to their most recent treatment. Half of the participants will receive elranatamab. The other half of participants will receive a combination therapy selected by the study doctor. The selected combination therapy will include 2 to 3 different medicines commonly used to treat MM. Elranatamab will be given as a shot under the skin at the study clinic about once a week. This may change to a smaller number of shots later in the study. The medicines in the combination therapy will be taken by mouth (at home or at the study clinic) AND will be given either as: * a shot under the skin at the study clinic * through a needle in the vein at the study clinic The number of times these medicines will be taken depends on what combination therapy the study doctor selects. Participants may continue to receive elranatamab or a combination therapy until their MM is no longer responding. The study team will see how each participant is doing with the study treatment during regular visits at the study clinic. The study team will continue to follow-up with participants after study treatment with telephone contacts (or visits). The study will compare the experiences of people receiving elranatamab to those people receiving a combination therapy. This will help learn about the safety and how effective elranatamab is.

This is a post-trial access (PTA) open-label, single-arm study in Multiple Myeloma participants who continue to derive clinical benefit from elranatamab monotherapy in the Pfizer-sponsored elranatamab Parent Studies.

Background: Multiple myeloma (MM) is an incurable cancer of certain blood cells. MM often returns after treatment, and most people survive only 5 to 8 years after diagnosis. To improve survival, researchers need to find ways to identify returning disease earlier. Objective: To find out if the radiotracer 18F-fluciclovine (a substance injected into the blood during imaging scans) is better at detecting MM than the one (18F-FDG) currently used for this purpose. Eligibility: Adults aged 18 years or older with MM. The MM may be newly diagnosed (NDMM); or it may have returned or failed to respond after at least 1 prior line of treatment (RRMM). Design: Participants will be screened. They will have blood tests. They will have a positron emission tomography (PET) or computed tomography (CT) scan using 18F-FDG. The radiotracer will be injected into a vein. Then participants will lie on a table while the PET/CT scan takes images of their body. All participants will have 3 study visits. During each visit they will have: Two PET/CT scans. One with 18F-FDG, one with 18F-fluciclovine. An optional magnetic resonance imaging scan. A bone marrow biopsy. An area on the hip will be numbed; a needle will be inserted to draw out a sample of the soft tissue from inside the bone. These tests may be spread over 30 days for each visit. NDMM participants will have their second study visit 2 to 4 weeks after they complete their usual treatment for the disease. RRMM participants will have their second visit 6 months after their first. All participants will have a third study visit after 5 years or when their disease progresses.

Therapy with chimeric antigen receptor T (CAR-T) cells has demonstrated activity against refractory hematologic malignancies, however not all tumors respond or remain in response to CD19 targeted CAR-T cells. We posit that CAR-T cells expressing BAFF (BAFF CAR-T cells) can become another strategy to treat refractory hematologic malignancies, even after relapse following cluster of differentiation antigen 19 (CD19) targeting CAR-T treatment. This phase 1 study will evaluate safe dose and provide initial signal of the activity of BAFF CAR-T cells against refractory hematologic malignancies using a single lymphodepletion regimen and using a BAFF CAR-T cell manufacturing process.

The iCaRe2 is a multi-institutional resource created and maintained by the Fred \& Pamela Buffett Cancer Center to collect and manage standardized, multi-dimensional, longitudinal data and biospecimens on consented adult cancer patients, high-risk individuals, and normal controls. The distinct characteristic of the iCaRe2 is its geographical coverage, with a significant percentage of small and rural hospitals and cancer centers. The iCaRe2 advances comprehensive studies of risk factors of cancer development and progression and enables the design of novel strategies for prevention, screening, early detection and personalized treatment of cancer. Centers with expertise in cancer epidemiology, genetics, biology, early detection, and patient care can collaborate by using the iCaRe2 as a platform for cohort and population studies.

Multiple myeloma is the second most common hematologic malignancy in adults and despite the new therapies that have been developed in the last decades it remains incurable. Over the course of the disease, patients eventually become refractory to the various treatments. Therefore, new therapeutic options which utilize new mechanisms of action are essential. Melphalan flufenamide (melflufen) represents such an additional therapeutic approach. Melflufen is a peptide-drug conjugate (PDC) which is highly lipophilic and rapidly incorporated into the tumor cells. Once inside the tumor cell, melflufen is hydrolyzed by peptidases, including aminopeptidases and esterases, to release its alkylator payload. The alkylating agent then induces DNA damage resulting in cell death. Melphalan flufenamid in combination with Dexamethason was approved by the European Medicines Agency (EMA) in August 2022 for the treatment of patients with triple class refractory relapsed/refractory Multiple Myeloma who have received at least 3 prior lines of therapy. For patients with prior autologous stem cell transplantation, the time to progression should be at least 3 years from transplantation. The non-interventional study MARINA aims to address open scientific questions regarding the effectiveness, as well as therapy and safety management of melflufen in a real-world setting. By collecting comprehensive real-world data - including the Disease Control Rate (DCR) as a key endpoint, which is of most value for patients in this late disease stage - MARINA will investigate the therapeutic benefit of melflufen in routine clinical practice.

The aim of this study is to assess safety, efficacy and pharmacokinetic (PK) parameters with alternative dosing schedules of belantamab mafodotin in combination with bortezomib and dexamethasone compared to the approved dosing regimen in participants with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM) who have received at least 2 prior lines of therapy. The study will further characterize the risk of ocular toxicity and impact on efficacy measures and PK evaluations using alternative and approved dosing regimens.

The goal of this phase 2 clinical trial is to learn if patients with Multiple Myeloma who are minimal residual disease positive after initial therapy (including an autologous stem cell transplant \[ASCT\]) will benefit from maintenance therapy with Iberdomide and subcutaneous (SC) Daratumumab. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Assess if giving Iberdomide and the SC Daratumumab in the maintenance setting is an effective treatment and warrants further investigation in patients with residual disease * Is giving Iberdomide and SC Daratumumab maintenance post ASCT a safe option Participants will: * provide informed consent and complete screening assessments for eligibility within 28 days of starting treatment * Screening assessments include specific laboratory tests, a medical history assessment and a physical examination (including temperature, pulse, blood pressure, respirations, height and weight), an assessment of your heart function, a breathing test, cancer imaging, a bone marrow biopsy, minimal residual disease testing (MRD) and a questionnaire * If eligible, patients will start treatment with Iberdomide (1.0 mg on day 1-21 of each 28 day cycle, with an increase to 1.3 mg on Cycle 4 if the 1.0 mg dose was tolerated, to a maximum of 26 cycles or progressive disease, whichever is first) and SC Daratumumab (1800 mg SC on days 1, 8, 15 and 22 of cycle 1 and 2, then 1800 mg SC on Day 1 and 15 of cycle 3-6 and 1800 mg SC on Day 1 for cycles 7-26 to a maximum of 26 cycles or progressive disease, whichever is first) * while receiving treatment on study, physical exams (including temperature, pulse, blood pressure, respirations, height and weight), toxicity assessments, laboratory assessments and questionnaires will be done at various times over the course of the 26 cycles * an MRD assessment is required at 6, 12 and 24 months after starting treatment * End of treatment will occur once 26 cycles are completed, or cancer has progressed whichever comes first. At that time, specific laboratory tests, a physical examination (including temperature, pulse, blood pressure, respirations, height and weight), cancer imaging, a bone marrow biopsy and minimal residual disease testing (MRD) will occur.

This is a Phase II study of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HCT) using a myeloablative preparative regimen (of either total body irradiation (TBI); or, fludarabine/busulfan for patients unable to receive further radiation). followed by a post-transplant graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis regimen of post-transplant cyclophosphamide (PTCy), tacrolimus (Tac), and mycophenolate mofetil (MMF).

Background: Cancer has a major impact in the United States and across the world. In 2015, over 1.5 million new cases of cancer were diagnosed in the U.S. Researchers want to study samples from people with cancer or a pre-malignant condition. They hope to develop more effective treatments. Objective: To better understand the biology of malignancies and why certain cancers respond differently to treatment. Eligibility: Adults at least 18 years old with cancer or a pre-cancerous condition. Design: Participants will be screened with a medical history, physical exam, and blood tests. Their diagnosis will be confirmed by the NCI Laboratory of Pathology. Participants will send tissue blocks or slides from their original tumor biopsy. At least once, participants will have a medical history, physical exam, and blood and urine tests. Participants may have the following tests. They may have them more than once: Apheresis. A needle in one arm removes blood. Blood is run through a machine and the sample cells are taken out. The rest of the blood is returned by a needle in the other arm. Bone marrow aspiration and biopsy. The hipbone will be numbed. A needle will be put into the hipbone. Bone marrow will be taken out through the needle. Piece of cancer tissue taken by a needle and syringe. Computed tomography (CT) scan, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and/or positron emission tomography (PET) scan or ultrasound to help locate their tumor. For the scans, they lie in a machine that takes pictures. A small piece of skin removed. Participants will be contacted by phone once a year to find out how they are doing.

This is an open-label, randomized interventional multicenter Phase 3 clinical trial to investigate the efficacy and safety of Tec-DRd induction therapy and fixed-duration Tec-D maintenance post ASCT in adult participants with TE NDMM, compared with the SoC PERSEUS regimen. A total of 399 participants with TE NDMM aged ≥18 and ≤70 years and an Eastern CooperativeOncology Group (ECOG) status 0-2 will be included. The primary objective of the clinical trial: To determine the efficacy of Tec-DRd compared to DVRd after 6 cycles of induction/consolidation therapy and HD melphalan and ASCT, before start of maintenance therapy in participants with TE NDMM. Endpoint: Cumulative MRD negativity by NGS at a sensitivity level of 10-6 before start of maintenance therapy.

This research study is being done to compare the efficacy and safety of the combination of elranatamab, lenalidomide, bortezomib, dexamethasone versus the combination of daratumumab, lenalidomide, bortezomib, dexamethasone for patients with newly diagnosed, transplant ineligible/deferred multiple myeloma.

Multiple myeloma (MM) is a plasma cell disease characterized by the growth of clonal plasma cells in the bone marrow. The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and change in disease activity of surzetoclax in adult participants with relapsed/refractory (R/R) MM. Adverse events and change in disease activity will be assessed. Surzetoclax is an investigational drug being developed for the treatment of R/R MM. In Substudy 1 there will be a dose escalation phase where participants will receive various doses of surzetoclax in combination with daratumumab + dexamethasone, to determine the best dose of surzetoclax. This will be followed by a dose expansion and selection phase where participants will receive 1 of 2 doses of surzetoclax in combination with daratumumab + dexamethasone, or daratumumab + dexamethasone + pomalidomide (only during the expansion phase). In Substudy 2, there will be a dose escalation phase where participants will receive various doses of surzetoclax alone. Approximately 130 adult participants with R/R MM will be enrolled in the study in approximately 40 sites worldwide. In Substudy 1 escalation phase, participants will receive oral surzetoclax tablets in combination with subcutaneous (SC) daratumumab injections + oral dexamethasone tablets and in the expansion phase, will receive oral surzetoclax tablets in combination with SC daratumumab injections + oral dexamethasone tablets or daratumumab injections + oral pomalidomide + oral dexamethasone tablets. In Substudy 2, Japanese participants will receive oral surzetoclax tablets. The total study duration is approximately 4.5 years. There may be higher treatment burden for participants in this trial compared to their standard of care. Participants will attend regular visits during the study at an approved institution. The effect of the treatment will be frequently checked by medical assessments, blood tests, and side effects.

Elranatamab is a bispecific antibody: binding of elranatamab to CD3-expressing T-cells and BCMA-expressing multiple myeloma cells causes targeted T-cell-mediated cytotoxicity. The main purpose of the study is to evaluate if the combination of Elranatamab, Daratumumab and Lenalidomide offers superior clinical benefit compared with the combination of Daratumumab, Bortezomib, Lenalidomide and Dexamethasone in people with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma. There are 2 parts to this study. Part 1 will characterize the safety and tolerability of elranatamab in combination with daratumumab and lenalidomide or in combination with lenalidomide and will identify the optimal dose(s) of the combination regimen. Part 2 of the study will evaluate the rate of minimal residual disease (MRD) negative CR and the progression free survival (PFS) of the combination of elranatamab, daratumumab, and lenalidomide compared with the combination of daratumumab, bortezomib, lenalidomide, and dexamethasone in participants with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma.
