iberdomide and daratumumab as maintenance therapy after an autologous stem cell transplant for multiple myeloma

Conditions: Multiple Myeloma

Summary: 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.


Eligibility criteria:
inclusion criteria: 1. multiple myeloma patients who have received prior dara-containing induction therapy and have attained at least a partial response. 2. patients who have completed autologous stem cell transplant (asct) 90-150 days prior to registration, without any post-asct therapy and without post-asct disease progression (according to imwg criteria) 3. patients who are minimal residual

assessment. 7. ecog (eastern cooperative oncology group) performance status \</= 2 8. adequate bone marrow function as evidenced by platelets \>/= 75,000/mm3, hemoglobin \>/= 8 g/dl, and anc (absolute neutrophil count) \>/= 1,000/mm3 within 28 days prior to registration. note: transfusion to achieve the hemoglobin threshold is permissible. 9. adequate hepatic function defined by the following within 28 days prior to registration: total bilirubin \</=1.5 x iuln (institutional upper limit of the norm, except in case of gilbert's syndrome) and ast (aspartate aminotransferase and alt (aspartate transaminase) \</=3.0 x iuln 10. adequate renal function, as defined by creatinine clearance (crcl) \>/= 30 ml/min., as measured by a 24-hour urine collection or estimated by the cockcroft and gault formula within 28 days prior to registration. 11. all asct-related toxicities must have recovered to \</=grade 1 (except for alopecia, fatigue and amenorrhea) prior to registration 12. females of childbearing potential (fcbp) must have a negative serum or urine pregnancy test with a sensitivity of at least 25 miu (milli-international unit)/ml within 10-14 days prior to registration. fcbp must agree to have a second pregnancy test within 24 hours prior to starting cycle 1. further, fcbp must either commit to continued abstinence from heterosexual intercourse or begin two acceptable methods of birth control: one highly effective method and one additional effective method at the same time, at least 7 days before starting iber, during therapy, during dose interruptions and continuing for 28 days following discontinuation of iberdomide and for 90 days following the discontinuation of daratumumab. fcbp must also agree not to donate eggs (ova, oocytes) for the purposes of assisted reproduction during the study and for 28 days after the last dose of iberdomide and for 90 days after the last dose of daratumumab. reliable contraception is indicated even where there has been a history of infertility, unless due to hysterectomy. females of reproductive potential should be referred to a qualified provider of contraceptive methods, if needed. 13. men must agree to use a latex condom during sexual contact with a fcbp, even if they have had a successful vasectomy, during the study treatment and for 90 days after the last dose of study treatment. they must also agree to
