Brief summary:
This phase II trial studies how well dexamethasone, elotuzumab, pomalidomide work in treating patients with multiple myeloma that has not responded to previous treatment. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as dexamethasone, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as elotuzumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Pomalidomide may stop the growth of multiple myeloma by blocking the growth of new blood vessels necessary for tumor growth. Giving dexamethasone, elotuzumab, pomalidomide may work better in treating patients with multiple myeloma.

Detailed description:
PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:

I. To determine the overall response rate (ORR) of utilizing elotuzumab, pomalidomide and dexamethasone in patients with disease refractory to daratumumab.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To determine percentage of patients achieving complete response (CR) with the elotuzumab combination.

II. To determine progression-free survival (PFS) for treatment with the elotuzumab combination.

III. To determine safety profile for treatment with the elotuzumab combination. IV. To determine the overall survival (OS) for patients receiving treatment with the elotuzumab combination.

OUTLINE:

Patients receive dexamethasone intravenously (IV) on days 1, 8, 15, and 22 of cycles 1-2 and IV on day 1 and orally (PO) on days 8, 15, and 22 of subsequent cycles and elotuzumab IV on days 1, 8, 15, and 22 of cycles 1-2 and day 1 of subsequent cycles. Patients also receive pomalidomide PO on days 1-21. Cycles repeat every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up every 3 months until progressive disease, then every 6 months thereafter.

Background  
 
Multiple myeloma (MM) is a malignant disorder of the plasma cells, characterized by 
uncontrolled and progressive proliferation of a plasma cell clone. The disease leads to progressive 
morbidity and eventual mortality by lowering resistance to infection and causing significant 
skeletal destruction (with bone pain, pathological fractures, and hypercalcemia), anemia, renal 
failure, neurological complications and hyper viscosity syndrome. 
 
The majority of patients with MM produce a monoclonal protein, also called paraprotein, M-
protein or M-component, which is an immunoglobulin (Ig) or a fragment of one that has lost its 
function.(Kyle & Rajkumar, 2009; Palumbo et al., 2009, ) Normal immunoglobulin levels are 
compromised, leading to susceptibility of infections. The proliferating MM cells displace the 
normal bone marrow leading to dysfunction in normal hematopoietic tissue and destruction of the 
normal bone marrow architecture, which is reflected by clinical findings such as anemia, 
paraprotein in serum or urine, and bone resorption seen as diffuse osteoporosis or lytic lesions 
shown in radiographs.(Kyle et al., 2003) Furthermore, hypercalcemia, renal insufficiency or 
failure, and neurological complications are frequently seen.(Palumbo & Anderson, 2011) A small 
minority of patients with MM are non-secretory. 
 
At the time of diagnosis, multiple myeloma is a heterogeneous disease, with a course that varies 
on the basis of both disease- and host-related factors (e.g., age, renal function, stage, 
chromosomal abnormalities). Multiple myeloma causes significant morbidity and mortality. It 
accounts for approximately 1% of all malignancies and 13% of hematologic cancers. 
Approximately 50,000 patients per year are diagnosed with multiple myeloma in the EU and US, 
and 30,000 patients per year die due to multiple myeloma. 
 
1.1 
Treatment 
 
1.11 
Treatment choices for MM vary with age, performance status, comorbidity, the 
aggressiveness of the disease, and related prognostic factors.(Dingli et al., 2017) 
Despite great improvements in response rates and outcomes, nearly all patients 
have disease relapse and remain incurable. Furthermore, while several drugs and 
regimens are available for the treatment of MM, there are still questions 
regarding how the various regimens need to be sequenced.(Dingli et al., 2017) 
This becomes even more important as more complex combination regimens are 
being used earlier on in the treatment, making it necessary to utlize the available 
agents optimally for patients with relapsed/refractory MM (RRMM). 
 
1.12 
Role of Monoclonal Antibodies in Multiple Myeloma 
So far two monoclonal antibodies are approved by the FDA for treatment of 
patients with RRMM – Daratumumab and Elotuzumab.(Dimopoulos et al, 2017; 
Palumbo et al., 2016; Lonial et al., 2016; Dimopoulos et al., 2016) Daratumumab 
is an immunoglobulin G1 kappa (IgG1k) human monoclonal antibody (mAb) that 
binds to a unique CD38 epitope on CD38-expressing cells with high affinity. It 
was developed by the immunization of human immunoglobulin transgenic mice 
with recombinant CD38 protein.(Sanchez et al., 2016) CD38 is a 46-kDa type II 
transmembrane glycoprotein that is highly expressed on MM cells.(McEllistrim 
et al., 2017) CD38 has various mechanisms including ectoenzymatic activity, 
receptor-mediated regulation of cell adhesion and signal transduction.(Malavasi 
et al., 2006) Preclinical studies have shown that daratumumab induces MM cell 
death through several mechanisms, including complement-dependent 


MC1884 
6  
 
Protocol Version Date: 13Jan2022 
 
 
cytotoxicity (CDC), antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity (ADCC), 
antibody-dependent cellular phagocytosis (ADCP), and FcR mediated-
crosslinking inducing apoptosis.(Sanchez et al., 2016) In a combined analysis of 
GEN501 and SIRIUS studies including 148 patients, the Overall Response Rate 
(ORR) was 31 %, and at a median follow-up of 14.8 months, the estimated 
Overall Survival (OS) was 19.9 months.(Usmani et al., 2015) These trials 
demonstrated that daratumumab is active as monotherapy in patients with heavily 
pre-treated and relapsed/refractory myeloma (RRMM) alongside maintaining its 
anti-myeloma activity in previously treatment refractory patients as evident by 
ORR 33 and 29.7 % in GEN501and SIRIUS, respectively.(Usmani et al., 2015) 
Preclinical studies have shown that Daratumumab in combination with other 
agents enhances the antimyeloma activity and now there are reported multiple 
phase II /III trials to study the same. These include data from the CASTOR and 
POLLUX trials of the combination of daratumumab and dexamethasone with 
bortezomib and lenalidomide, respectively, showing enhanced efficacy of these 
regimens in patients with early relapsed MM (2nd or 3rd line) and low minimal 
residual disease (MRD) states leading to the FDA approval of these regimens. 
Palumbo et al., 2016; Lonial et al., 2016; Dimopoulos et al., 2016) 
 
Elotuzumab is a first-in-class humanized immunoglobulin G1 
immunostimulatory monoclonal antibody targeted against signaling lymphocytic 
activation molecule F7 (SLAMF7, also called CS1 [cell-surface glycoprotein 
CD2 subset 1]), a glycoprotein expressed on myeloma and natural killer cells but 
not on normal tissues that enables selective killing of myeloma cells with 
minimal effects on healthy tissue.(His et al., 2008) The SLAM family is a 
subgroup of the immunoglobulin superfamily of receptors and consists of six 
members (SLAM, 2B4, Ly-9, NTB-A, CD94, and SLAMF7), all located on 
chromosome 1q23.(15) More than 95% of bone marrow myeloma cells express 
SLAMF7 in a manner that is independent of cytogenetic abnormalities.Hsi et al., 
2008; Tai et al, 2008) Elotuzumab exerts a dual effect by directly activating 
natural killer cells and mediating antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity 
through the CD16 pathway.(Collins et al., 2013) SLAMF7 mediates activating 
signals in natural killer cells by coupling with its adapter protein EAT-2. In 
myeloma cells, SLAMF7 signaling is compromised owing in part to the lack of 
EAT-2 expression; therefore, elotuzumab does not induce the proliferation of 
myeloma cells.(Guo et al., 2015; Perez-Quintero et al., 2014) In a single-group, 
phase 2 trial of elotuzumab in combination with lenalidomide and 
dexamethasone, this immunostimulatory activity translated into an improvement 
in progression-free survival in patients with relapsed or refractory multiple 
myeloma and followed by this randomized phase 3 trials were done leading to 
the FDA approval of Elotuzumab with lenalidomide and dexamethasone in 
patients with RRMM.(Dimopoulos et al., 2017) 
 
1.13 
Rationale of Elotuzumab after Daratumumab Treatment in MM 
Daratumumab has emerged as a highly effective anti-MM agent as well as a 
partner to other already available anti-MM drugs including proteasome inhibitors 
and immunomodulatory drugs (IMiDs). This has lead to utilization of 
daratumumab earlier in the treatment paradigm of MM patients.(Dingli et al., 
2017) On the other hand, there have been some questions regarding the optimal 
positioning of Elouzumab, which  has a distinct mechanism of action than 
Daratumumab, and did not show any efficacy by itself. Furthermore, it was not 


MC1884 
7  
 
Protocol Version Date: 13Jan2022 
 
 
studied in patients who had been previously exposed significantly to IMiDs, 
which are used routinely early on in MM care and majority of patients that may 
become eligible for treatment with Elotuzumab may already have disease 
refractory to lenalidomide (full dose or maintenance dose). Thus, combining 
elotuzumab with another agent, pomalidomide in this case, and utilizing in 
patients who have had disease progression on daratumumab previously is a 
strategy that is warranted to understand how this FDA-approved agent will be 
optimally utilized as the therapeutic landscape of MM advances. 
 
1.14 
Trial Design 
This will be a phase II, open label, prospective clinical trial in MM patients with 
disease previously treated utilizing any daratumumab-based regimen and disease 
progression noted while on the daratumumab-based regimen or within 60 days of 
discontinuation of daratumumab (daratumumab refractory). Such patients will be 
treated with a combination of elotuzumab, pomalidomide and dexamethasone, as 
previously presented.(San Miguel et al., 2016) The efficacy of elotuzumab in 
previously daratumumab-treated patients will help determine its appropriate role 
in treatment of patients with RRMM. 
 
The dose schedule of Elotuzumab selected for the current trial is in accordance of 
several combination clinical trials that have been published with this agent since 
its FDA approval. Based on those trials, Elotuzumab is dosed weekly for the first 
8 weeks and then is given as 20 mg/Kg dose every 4 weeks till disease 
progression or intolerable adverse events. (ref: Elo-pom-dex currently ongoing

Registration 
6.1 
Registration (Step 1):  
6.11 
Registering a patient 
To register a patient, access the Mayo Clinic Cancer Center (MCCC) web page 
and enter the registration/randomization application.  The registration/ 
randomization application is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Back up 
and/or system support contact information is available on the website. If unable 
to access the website, call the MCCC Registration Office at (507) 284-2753 
between the hours of 8 a.m. and 4:30 p.m. Central Time (Monday through 
Friday). 
The instructions for the registration/randomization application are available on 
the MCCC web page (http://ccswww/training/index.html) and detail the 
process for completing and confirming patient registration. Prior to initiation of 
protocol treatment, this process must be completed in its entirety and an MCCC 
subject ID number must be available as noted in the instructions. It is the 
responsibility of the individual registering the patient to confirm the process has 
been successfully completed prior to release of the study agent. Patient 
registration via the registration/randomization application can be confirmed in 
any of the following ways: 
• 
Contact the MCCC Registration Office (507) 284-2753. If the patient 
was fully registered, the MCCC Registration Office staff can access the 
information from the centralized database and confirm the registration. 
• 
Refer to “Instructions for Remote Registration” in section 
“Finding/Displaying Information about A Registered Subject.” 
6.2 
Verification of materials 
Prior to accepting the registration, registration/randomization application will verify the 
following: 
• 
IRB approval at the registering institution 
• 
Patient eligibility 
• 
Existence of a signed consent form 
• 
Existence of a signed authorization for use and disclosure of protected health 
information  
6.3 
Documentation of IRB approval 
Documentation of IRB approval must be on file in the Registration Office before an 
investigator may register any patients.  
In addition to submitting initial IRB approval documents, ongoing IRB approval 
documentation must be on file (no less than annually) at the Registration Office (fax: 
507-284-0885). If the necessary documentation is not submitted in advance of attempting 
patient registration, the registration will not be accepted and the patient may not be 
enrolled in the protocol until the situation is resolved. 
When the study has been permanently closed to patient enrollment, submission of annual 
IRB approvals to the Registration Office is no longer necessary.

NOTES:  
• 
Missed doses for pomalidomide are to be omitted rather than made up, unless the 
dose was forgotten and remembered on the same day, in which case the dose can be 
taken that day. Any doses missed on a particular day are not to be made up the next 
day. Doses that are considered to be vomited are not to be made up and a mention 
about the time of dose and time of vomiting episode should be made in the pill diary.  
• 
Elotuzumab may be administered within ±1 day of the scheduled dose if there are 
any logistical challenges (holiday, patient transport or other logistics, scheduling 
availability, etc.) 
• 
If multiple toxicities are experienced, dose modifications will be based on the toxicity 
requiring the largest dose reduction. 


MC1884 
20  
 
Protocol Version Date: 13Jan2022 
 
 
• 
Reductions are based on the dose given in the preceding cycle and are based on 
toxicities with an attribution of possible, probable, or definite that were observed 
since the prior toxicity evaluation. 
• 
Patients may continue on treatment with any two of the study drugs (elotuzumab or 
pomalidomide or dexamethasone) in case one of the agents has to be permanently 
discontinued. If a patient on treatment must discontinue two or all three drugs in the 
combination permanently, they should be removed from the protocol therapy and 
proceed to survival follow-up. 
• 
A dose omit/delay of ≤28 days for any of the drugs is allowed. If a patient cannot be 
administered a dose of two or all three drugs in the study treatment for >28 days due 
to adverse events or any other reason, the patient should be removed from the study 
treatment and go to survival follow-up.

Additional Adverse Events: 
** If elotuzumab is omitted in the middle of the cycle and the toxicity resolves, patient 
can re-start the drug but the days of drug treatment missed do not need to be caught-up 
and can be omitted in order to maintain the cycle schedule. 
• 
Dose omission: elotuzumab may be omitted for adverse event considerations for a 
maximum of 28 consecutive days. Study medication should be discontinued 
permanently in the event of AE lasting more than 28 days. 
 
• 
If multiple adverse events are seen, administer dose based on the greatest 
reduction required by any single adverse event observed.  
• 
Dose modifications are for adverse events attributed to study treatment only.  
Dose modifications are not required for adverse events if they are deemed 
unrelated and/or unlikely related to study treatment. 
• 
Reductions apply to treatment given in the preceding cycle and are based on 
adverse events observed since the prior dose. 
• 
Patients can continue pomalidomide and dexamethasone if elotuzumab is 
held/omitted for AEs on Day 1 or during the cycle. 
**** If cough, dyspnea, and other pulmonary symptoms occur, a chest x-ray and high-
resolution chest CT scan should be obtained. Incentive spirometry studies (to include 
DLCO) should be considered.  Consider Pneumocystis pneumonia or viral pneumonitis. 
Patients who experience a deep vein thrombosis (DVT), pulmonary embolus (PE), or 
other clotting event should have all study drugs temporarily omitted while full-dose 
anticoagulation is initiated (other than warfarin or other Vitamin K antagonist). There 
should not be a delay of more than 28 days in reinitiating the study treatment.  
NOTE: If the patient experiences a significant adverse event requiring a dose reduction at the start of the 
next cycle, then the dose will remain lowered for that entire remaining length of the study treatment.

9.2 
Blood products and growth factors 
Blood products and growth factors should be utilized as clinically warranted and 
following institutional policies and recommendations. The use of growth factors should 
follow published guidelines of the Journal of Clinical Oncology, Volume 33, No 28 
(October 1), 2015: pp. 3199-3212 (WBC growth factors) AND Journal of Clinical 
Oncology, Volume 28, No 33 (November 20), 2010: pp. 4955-5010 
(darbepoetin/epoetin). 
9.3 
Antiemetics 
Antiemetics may be used at the discretion of the attending physician. 
9.4 
Diarrhea 
Diarrhea could be managed conservatively with loperamide. The recommended dose of 
loperamide is 4 mg at first onset, followed by 2 mg every 2-4 hours until diarrhea free 
(maximum 16 mg/day). 
In the event of Grade 3 or 4 diarrhea, the following supportive measures are allowed: 
hydration, octreotide, and antidiarrheals.  
If diarrhea is severe (requiring intravenous rehydration) and/or associated with fever or 
severe neutropenia (Grade 3 or 4), broad-spectrum antibiotics must be prescribed. 
Patients with severe diarrhea or any diarrhea associated with severe nausea or vomiting 
should be hospitalized for intravenous hydration and correction of electrolyte 
imbalances. 
9.5 
Biosphosphonates 
 
 
Patients may receive concurrent treatment with a bisphosphonate. 
9.6 
Thrombophylaxis 
Due to the increased risk of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) for multiple myeloma patients, 
thromboprophylaxis is to be used as standard of care on this regimen according to the 
International Myeloma Working Group guidelines 
(http://jco.ascopubs.org/content/32/6/587.full).(21) 
 
9.7 
Herpes Zoster Prophylaxis 
Patients may be at an increased risk of infection including reactivation of herpes zoster 
and herpes simplex viruses. Prophylaxis with acyclovir 400 mg PO BID should be used 
while on study therapy and for 3 months beyond the end of therapy. 
9.8 
Prohibited Medications 
 
 
The following medications are not permitted during the trial: 
• 
Any other investigational treatment 
• 
Any cytotoxic chemotherapy 


MC1884 
28  
 
Protocol Version Date: 13Jan2022 
 
 
• 
Any other systemic anti-neoplastic therapy including, but not limited to, 
immunotherapy, hormonal therapy or monoclonal antibody therapy. 
• 
Any external beam radiotherapy. NOTE: Radiation therapy administered with 
palliative intent to control localized symptoms from MM is permitted provided 
the symptoms are not considered due to disease progression. 
9.9 
Concomitant medications 
Any systemic anti-myeloma therapy or steroids other than those prescribed by the 
protocol are prohibited while on protocol therapy. Guidelines for selection and use of 
other concomitant medications should be derived from the dexamethasone, elotuzumab, 
and pomalidomide prescribing information.  Other than study medications, administration 
of any therapeutic or diagnostic investigational agent (for any indication) is prohibited 
while on study. 
 
9.10  
Guidelines for prevention of infusion reactions 
 
Pre-infusion Medications: On elotuzumab infusion days, subjects will receive the 
following medications 45 to 90 minutes prior to infusion in addition to dexamethasone 
outlined in section 7.0: 
 
- Acetaminophen 650-1000 mg orally 
- Diphenhydramine (or comparable H1 blocker) 25 to 50 mg orally or intravenously 
- Famotidine (or comparable H2 blocker) 20 mg orally or intravenously 
 
9.11  
Guidelines for management of infusion reactions 
 
Subjects should be carefully observed during elotuzumab infusions. Trained study staff at 
the clinic should be prepared to intervene in case of any infusion reactions occurring and 
resources necessary for resuscitation must be available at the bedside. 
 
If a Grade 2 or higher infusion reaction occurs during elotuzumab administration, 
interrupt the infusion and institute appropriate medical and supportive measures 
(antiemetics, antihistamines, analgesics, corticosteroids, leukotriene inhibitors, oxygen, 
epinephrine, bronchodilators, or other supportive measures as indicated). Upon resolution 
to Grade 1 or lower, restart at 0.5 mL per minute and gradually increase at a rate of 0.5 
mL per minute every 30 minutes as tolerated to the rate at which the infusion reaction 
occurred. Resume the escalation regimen if there is no recurrence of the infusion reaction 
(see Table 7.13). 
 
In patients who experience an infusion reaction, monitor vital signs every 30 minutes for 
2 hours after the end of the elotuzumab infusion. If the infusion reaction recurs, stop the 
elotuzumab infusion and do not restart on that day.  
 
Infusion reactions after the completion of elotuzumab infusion: Should a Grade ≥ 2 
infusion reaction occur following completion of an elotuzumab infusion, the subject 
should be treated as clinically indicated with 1 or more of the following medications or 
interventions: diphenhydramine, acetaminophen, hydrocortisone, H2 inhibitor, 
leukotriene inhibitor, oxygen inhalation, epinephrine, bronchodilators, or other supportive 
measures as indicated. 
 


MC1884 
29  
 
Protocol Version Date: 13Jan2022 
 
 
Elotuzumab infusions on subsequent weeks after a prior Grade ≥ 2 infusion reaction: 
Subjects with prior Grade 2 or higher infusion reactions should have future infusions 
started at 0.5 mL/min and then escalated in a stepwise fashion (0.5 mL/minute every 30 
minutes, See section 7.13). 
10.0 
Adverse Event (AE) Monitoring and Reporting  
The site principal investigator is responsible for reporting any/all serious adverse events to the 
sponsor as described within the protocol, regardless of attribution to study agent or treatment 
procedure. 
The sponsor/sponsor-investigator is responsible for notifying FDA and all participating 
investigators in a written safety report of any of the following: 
• 
Any suspected adverse reaction that is both serious and unexpected. 
• 
Any findings from laboratory animal or in vitro testing that suggest a significant risk for 
human subjects, including reports of mutagenicity, teratogenicity, or carcinogenicity. 
• 
Any findings from epidemiological studies, pooled analysis of multiple studies, or 
clinical studies, whether or not conducted under an IND and whether or not conducted by 
the sponsor, that suggest a significant risk in humans exposed to the drug 
•

Protocol Version Date: 13Jan2022 
 
 
Adverse Event 
Any untoward medical occurrence associated with the use of a drug in humans, whether or 
not considered drug related.  
Suspected Adverse Reaction 
Any adverse event for which there is a reasonable possibility that the drug caused the adverse 
event. 
Expedited Reporting 
Events reported to sponsor within 24 hours, 5 days or 10 days of study team becoming aware 
of the event. 
Routine Reporting 
Events reported to sponsor via case report forms 
Events of Interest 
Events that would not typically be considered to meet the criteria for expedited reporting, but 
that for a specific protocol are being reported via expedited means in order to facilitate the 
review of safety data (may be requested by the FDA or the sponsor).  
10.1 
Adverse Event Characteristics 
CTCAE term (AE description) and grade: The descriptions and grading scales found 
in the revised NCI Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 
5.0 will be utilized for AE reporting. All appropriate treatment areas should have access 
to a copy of the CTCAE version 5.0. A copy of the CTCAE version 5.0 can be 
downloaded from the CTEP web site: 
(http://ctep.cancer.gov/protocolDevelopment/electronic_applications/ctc.htm) 
a. Identify the grade and severity of the event using the CTCAE version 5.0. 
b. Determine whether the event is expected or unexpected (see Section 10.2). 
c. Determine if the adverse event is related to the study intervention (agent, treatment or 
procedure) (see Section 10.3). 
d. Determine whether the event must be reported as an expedited report. If yes, 
determine the timeframe/mechanism (see Section 10.4).  
e. Determine if other reporting is required (see Section 10.5). 
f. Note: All AEs reported via expedited mechanisms must also be reported via the 
routine data reporting mechanisms defined by the protocol (see Sections 10.6 and 
18.0). 
NOTE: A severe AE is NOT the same as a serious AE, which is defined in Section 10.4. 
10.2 
Expected vs. Unexpected Events  
Expected events - are those described within the Section 15.0 of the protocol, the study 
specific consent form, package insert (if applicable), and/or the investigator brochure, (if 
an investigator brochure is not required, otherwise described in the general 
investigational plan).  
Unexpected adverse events or suspected adverse reactions are those not listed in Section 
15.0 of the protocol, the study specific consent form, package insert (if applicable), or in 
the investigator brochure (or are not listed at the specificity or severity that has been 
observed); if an investigator brochure is not required or available, is not consistent with 
the risk information described in the general investigational plan. 
Unexpected also refers to adverse events or suspected adverse reactions that are 
mentioned in the investigator brochure as occurring with a class of drugs but have not 


MC1884 
31  
 
Protocol Version Date: 13Jan2022 
 
 
been observed with the drug under investigation. 
An investigational agent/intervention might exacerbate the expected AEs associated with a 
commercial agent. Therefore, if an expected AE (for the commercial agent) occurs with a 
higher degree of severity or specificity, expedited reporting is required. 
NOTE: *The consent form may contain study specific information at the discretion of the 
Principal Investigator; it is possible that this information may NOT be included in the 
protocol or the investigator brochure. Refer to protocol or IB for reporting needs. 
10.3 
Attribution to agent(s) or procedure 
When assessing whether an adverse event (AE) is related to a medical agent(s) medical or 
procedure, the following attribution categories are utilized: 
Definite - The AE is clearly related to the agent(s)/procedure. 
Probable - The AE is likely related to the agent(s)/procedure. 
Possible - The AE may be related to the agent(s)/procedure. 
Unlikely - The AE is doubtfully related to the agent(s)/procedure. 
Unrelated - The AE is clearly NOT related to the agent(s)/procedure. 
10.31 AEs Experienced Utilizing Investigational Agents and Commercial Agent(s) 
on the SAME (Combination) Arm 
NOTE: When a commercial agent(s) is (are) used on the same treatment arm as 
the investigational agent/intervention (also, investigational drug, biologic, 
cellular product, or other investigational therapy under an IND), the entire 
combination (arm) is then considered an investigational intervention for 
reporting. 
• An AE that occurs on a combination study must be assessed in accordance with the 
guidelines for investigational agents/interventions.  
• An AE that occurs prior to administration of the investigational agent/intervention 
must be assessed as specified in the protocol. In general, only Grade 4 and 5 AEs 
that are unexpected with at least possible attribution to the commercial agent require 
an expedited report, unless hospitalization is required. Refer to Section 10.4 for 
specific AE reporting requirements or exceptions. 
An investigational agent/intervention might exacerbate the expected AEs associated 
with a commercial agent. Therefore, if an expected AE (for the commercial agent) 
occurs with a higher degree of severity or specificity, expedited reporting is 
required. 
• An increased incidence of an expected adverse event (AE) is based on the 
patients treated for this study at their site. A list of known/expected AEs is 
reported in the package insert or the literature, including AEs resulting from a 
drug overdose. 
• Commercial agent expedited reports must be submitted to the FDA via MedWatch 
3500A for Health Professionals (complete all three pages of the form).

Protocol Version Date: 13Jan2022 
 
 
For this protocol only, the following Adverse Events/Grades are expected to occur 
within this population and do not require Expedited Reporting. These events must still 
be reported via Routine Reporting (see Section 10.6).* 
*Report any clinically important increase in the rate of a serious suspected 
adverse reaction (at your study site) over that which is listed in the protocol or 
investigator brochure as an expedited event.  
*Report an expected event that is greater in severity or specificity than expected 
as an expedited event. 
*Specific protocol exceptions to expedited reporting should be reported 
expeditiously by investigators ONLY if they exceed the expected grade of the 
event.

(i.e., there is no untoward medical occurrence) associated with the hospitalization: 
● Hospitalizations for respite care 
● Planned hospitalizations required by the protocol 
● Hospitalization planned before informed consent (where the condition requiring the hospitalization 
has not changed post study drug administration) 
● Hospitalization for elective procedures unrelated to the current disease and/or treatment on this trial 
● Hospitalization for administration of study drug or insertion of access for administration of study 
drug 
●Hospitalization for routine maintenance of a device (e.g., battery replacement) that was in place 
before study entry 
● Hospitalization, or other serious outcomes for signs and symptoms of progression of the cancer.

10.42 General reporting instructions 
The Mayo IND and/or MCCC Compliance will assist the sponsor-investigator in 
the processing of expedited adverse events and forwarding of suspected 
unexpected serious adverse reactions (SUSARs) to the FDA and IRB. 
Use Mayo Expedited Event Report form 
http://livecycle2.mayo.edu/workspace/?startEndpoint=MC4158-

commercial/investigational agents on the same arm.  
10.43 Reporting of re-occurring SAEs 
ALL SERIOUS adverse events that meet the criteria outlined in table10.41 
MUST be immediately reported to the sponsor within the timeframes detailed in 
the corresponding table. This reporting includes, but is not limited to SAEs that 
re-occur again after resolution. 
10.5 
Other Required Reporting 
10.51 Unanticipated Problems Involving Risks to Subjects or Others (UPIRTSOS) 
Unanticipated Problems Involving Risks to Subjects or Others (UPIRTSOS) in 
general, include any incident, experience, or outcome that meets all of the 
following criteria: 
1. Unexpected (in terms of nature, severity, or frequency) given (a) the research 
procedures that are described in the protocol-related documents, such as the 
IRB-approved research protocol and informed consent document; and (b) the 
characteristics of the subject population being studied; 
2. Related or possibly related to participation in the research (in this guidance 
document, possibly related means there is a reasonable possibility that the 
incident, experience, or outcome may have been caused by the procedures 
involved in the research); and 
3. Suggests that the research places subjects or others at a greater risk of harm 
(including physical, psychological, economic, or social harm) than was 
previously known or recognized. 
Some unanticipated problems involve social or economic harm instead of the 
physical or psychological harm associated with adverse events. In other cases, 
unanticipated problems place subjects or others at increased risk of harm, but no 
harm occurs. 
Note: If there is no language in the protocol indicating that pregnancy is not 
considered an adverse experience for this trial, and if the consent form does not 
indicate that subjects should not get pregnant/impregnate others, then any 
pregnancy in a subject/patient or a male patient’s partner (spontaneously 
reported) which occurs during the study or within 120 days of completing the 
study should be reported as a UPIRTSO. 
Mayo Clinic Cancer Center (MCCC) Institutions: 
If the event meets the criteria for IRB submission as a Reportable 
Event/UPIRTSO, provide the appropriate documentation and use the Mayo 
Clinic Cancer Center Expedited Event Report form

CANCERCROSAFETYIN@mayo.edu. The Mayo Clinic Compliance Unit will 
review and process the submission to the Mayo Clinic IRB and work with the 
IND Coordinator for submission to FDA. 
10.52 Death 
Note: A death on study requires both routine and expedited reporting 
regardless of causality, unless as noted below. Attribution to treatment or 
other cause must be provided. 
Any death occurring within 30 days of the last dose, regardless of attribution to 
an agent/intervention under an IND requires expedited reporting within 24-
hours. 
Any death occurring greater than 30 days with an attribution of possible, 
probable, or definite to an agent/intervention under an IND requires expedited 
reporting within 24-hours. 
Reportable categories of Death  
• 
Death attributable to a CTCAE term. 
• 
Death Neonatal: A disorder characterized by cessation of life during the 
first 28 days of life.  
• 
Death NOS: A cessation of life that cannot be attributed to a CTCAE term 
associated with Grade 5. 
• 
Sudden death NOS: A sudden (defined as instant or within one hour of the 
onset of symptoms) or an unobserved cessation of life that cannot be 
attributed to a CTCAE term associated with Grade 5. 
• 
Death due to progressive disease should be reported as Grade 5 
“Neoplasms benign, malignant and unspecified (including cysts and 
polyps) – Other (Progressive Disease)” under the system organ class 
(SOC) of the same name. Evidence that the death was a manifestation of 
underlying disease (e.g., radiological changes suggesting tumor growth or 
progression: clinical deterioration associated with a disease process) 
should be submitted. 
10.53 Secondary Malignancy 
• 
A secondary malignancy is a cancer caused by treatment for a previous 
malignancy (e.g., treatment with investigational agent/intervention, radiation 
or chemotherapy). A secondary malignancy is not considered a metastasis of 
the initial neoplasm. 
• 
All secondary malignancies that occur following treatment with an agent under 
an IND will be reported. Three options are available to describe the event: 
o Leukemia secondary to oncology chemotherapy (e.g., Acute Myeloctyic 
Leukemia [AML]) 
o Myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) 
o Treatment-related secondary malignancy 
• 
Any malignancy possibly related to cancer treatment (including AML/MDS) 
should also be reported via the routine reporting mechanisms outlined in each 
protocol. 
10.54 Second Malignancy 


MC1884 
36  
 
Protocol Version Date: 13Jan2022 
 
 
A second malignancy is one unrelated to the treatment of a prior malignancy (and is 
NOT a metastasis from the initial malignancy). Second malignancies require ONLY 
routine reporting unless otherwise specified. 
10.55 Pregnancy, Fetal Death, and Death Neonatal  
If a female subject (or female partner of a male subject) taking investigational 
product becomes pregnant, the subject taking should notify the Investigator, and 
the pregnant female should be advised to call her healthcare provider 
immediately. The patient should have appropriate follow-up as deemed necessary 
by her physician. If the baby is born with a birth defect or anomaly, a second 
expedited report is required. 
Prior to obtaining private information about a pregnant woman and her infant, the 
investigator must obtain consent from the pregnant woman and the newborn 
infant’s parent or legal guardian before any data collection can occur. A consent 
form will need to be submitted to the IRB for these subjects if a pregnancy 
occurs. If informed consent is not obtained, no information may be collected. 
In cases of fetal death, miscarriage or abortion, the mother is the patient. In cases 
where the child/fetus experiences a serious adverse event other than fetal death, 
the child/fetus is the patient. 
NOTE: When submitting Mayo Expedited Adverse Event Report reports for 
“Pregnancy”, “Pregnancy loss”, or “Neonatal loss”, the potential risk of exposure 
of the fetus to the investigational agent(s) or chemotherapy agent(s) should be 
documented in the “Description of Event” section. Include any available medical 
documentation. Include this form:

10.551 
Pregnancy 
Pregnancy should be reported in an expedited manner as Grade 3 
“Pregnancy, puerperium and perinatal conditions - Other 
(pregnancy)” under the Pregnancy, puerperium and perinatal 
conditions SOC. Pregnancy should be followed until the outcome is 
known. 
10.552 
Fetal Death 
Fetal death is defined in CTCAE as “A disorder characterized by death 
in utero; failure of the product of conception to show evidence of 
respiration, heartbeat, or definite movement of a voluntary muscle after 
expulsion from the uterus, without possibility of resuscitation.” 
Any fetal death should be reported expeditiously, as Grade 4 
“Pregnancy, puerperium and perinatal conditions - Other 
(pregnancy loss)” under the Pregnancy, puerperium and perinatal 
conditions SOC. 
10.553 
Death Neonatal 
Neonatal death, defined in CTCAE as “A disorder characterized by 
cessation of life occurring during the first 28 days of life” that is felt by 
the investigator to be at least possibly due to the investigational 
agent/intervention, should be reported expeditiously.  


MC1884

Major hemorrhage is defined as any of the following: 
• 
Any treatment-emergent hemorrhagic adverse events of Grade 3 or 
higher*. Any treatment-emergent serious adverse events of bleeding 
of any grade 
• 
Any treatment-emergent central nervous system 
hemorrhage/hematoma of any grade 
*All hemorrhagic events requiring transfusion of red blood cells should be 
reported as grade 3 or higher AE per CTCAE v5.0. 
Events meeting the definition of major hemorrhage will be captured as an event 
of special interest according to section 10.8 above.

11.0 
Treatment Evaluation 
The International Myeloma Working Group (IMWG) uniform response criteria (Kumar et al, 
2016) will be used to assess response to therapy.  
11.1 
Terms and definitions 
• 
M-protein: synonyms include M-spike, monoclonal protein and myeloma 
protein, paraprotein, M-component. 
 
Serum M-protein level is quantitated using densitometry on SPEP except in cases 
where the SPEP is felt to be unreliable. 
o M-proteins migrating in the β-region (usually IgA M-proteins) 
o Cases in which the M-protein is so large and narrow on agarose (some 
specimens >4 g/dL) that they underestimate the actual immunoglobulin 
level (by greater than 1500 mg/dL) due to technical staining properties of 
the agarose gel. 
o Cases in which there are multiple peaks of same M-protein (aggregates 
or dimers) 
If SPEP is not available or felt to be unreliable (above examples) for routine M-
protein quantitation, then quantitative immunoglobulin levels derived from 
nephelometry or turbidometry can be accepted, with the exception that 
quantitative IgG may not be used.  However, this must be explicitly reported at 
baseline, and only nephelometry can be used for that patient to assess response. 
SPEP derived M-protein values and quantitative nephelometric immunoglobulin 
values cannot be used interchangeably.   
 
Urine M-protein measurement is estimated using 24-h UPEP only.  Random or 
24 h urine tests measuring kappa and lambda light chain levels are not reliable 
and are not recommended. 
 
FLC estimation is currently carried out using the serum FLC assay (Freelite, 
The Binding Site Limited, UK).  Patients with kappa/lambda FLC ratio <0.26 are 
defined as having monoclonal lambda FLC and those with ratios >1.65 as having 
a monoclonal kappa FLC.  The monoclonal light chain isotype is considered the 
involved FLC isotype, and the opposite light chain type as the uninvolved FLC 
type. 
 
• 
Response terms: The following response terms will be used: stringent Complete 
Response (sCR), complete response (CR), very good partial response (VGPR), partial 
response (PR), Minimal Response (MR), stable disease (SD), and progressive disease 
(PD).  
 
In addition, for each response category, there will be an “unconfirmed” response 
category, which will be for internal use, for the purpose of guiding decision making 
and test ordering. These designations will be applied at the time of the first 
measurement at which the quantitative aspect of the response category has been 
satisfied without the confirmation step having been satisfied. The designation “u” 
will precede the standard abbreviations, and will include usCR, uCR, uVGPR, uPR, 
uMR, uPD. 
 
• 
Measurable disease: Patients who have a measurable serum or urine M-protein. 


MC1884 
40  
 
Protocol Version Date: 13Jan2022 
 
 
o Serum M-protein ≥1 g/dl  
NOTE:  Quantitative IgG may not be used for defining 
measurable disease 
o Urine M-protein ≥ 200 mg/24 h 
o Serum FLC assay: Involved FLC level ≥  10 mg/dl provided 
serum FLC ratio is abnormal 
 
The serum free light chain (FLC) assay is of particular use in monitoring response to 
therapy in patients who have oligo-secretory or non-secretory disease and should be 
used in assessing response only if the baseline serum and/or urine M proteins 
are not “measurable” as above, and the baseline level of the involved FLC is 
“measurable.”  When using this assay, it is important to note that the FLC levels 
vary considerably with changes in renal function and in patients with renal 
insufficiency, the levels of both the kappa and lambda may remain elevated, but the 
ratio normalizes with achievement of CR.  Thus, both the level of the involved and 
the uninvolved FLC isotype (i.e., the involved/uninvolved ratio or involved-
uninvolved difference) should be considered in assessing response.  Patients 
included on the study on the basis of FLC alone (i.e., no measurable serum/urine 
M-protein) should be the only ones who are evaluated using FLC response criteria.  
The others should follow usual criteria and ignore FLC results with the exception 
of defining stringent complete response. 
 
• 
Evaluable disease: Patients who do not have a “measurable” serum M-protein, 
serum free light chain, or urine M-protein. 
 
• 
Oligosecretory myeloma: Patient with multiple myeloma who has NEVER had 
“measurable” serum M-protein or urine M-protein, but has had a detectable M-
protein in his/her serum and/or urine and/or measurable serum free light chain.  
 
• 
Non-secretory myeloma: Patient with multiple myeloma who has NEVER had a 
detectable M-protein in his/her serum and/or urine.

mg/24 hrs, involved Ig FLC is <10 mg/dL, bone 
marrow ≥30% plasma cells 
1  SPEP, UPEP, Immunofixation studies of both serum and urine, and Bone marrow 
biopsy are required to document CR regardless of registration values, and in addition 
FLC measurement and bone marrow immunophenotyping is required to document 
sCR.   
2  For serum measurable patients, 24 hour urine does not need to be confirmed (i.e. 
repeated after documented response) for any response category 
3  At a minimum, a bone marrow biopsy should be repeated every 3 months until 
documented response.  Bone marrow biopsy results do not need to be repeated after 
documented response. 
4    If serum M-protein is being followed by quantitative immunoglobulin levels derived 
from nephelometry or turbidometry, quantitative immunoglobulins are required.  SPEP is 
only required to document CR or VGPR. 
11.3 
Confirmed response 
In order to be classified as a hematologic response, confirmation of serum M- protein, 
serum immunoglobulin free light chain (when primary determinant of response) and 
urine M- protein (when primary determinant of response) results must be made by 
verification on two consecutive determinations. 
• 
Bone marrow aspirate and biopsy are only required to document CR or sCR, 
except for patients with evaluable disease only, where a bone marrow is required 
to document all response categories including progression. However, a second 
confirmatory bone marrow is not required to confirm response in any case. 
• 
Radiographic studies are not required to satisfy these response requirements; 
however, if radiographic studies were performed there should be no evidence of 
progressive or new bone lesions. 
 
Appropriate tests required to document and confirm response are listed in Table 11.2 
11.4  
Bone Progression 
Caution must be exercised to avoid rating progression on the basis of variation of 
radiologic technique alone.  Compression fracture does not exclude continued response 
and may not indicate progression.  When progression is based on skeletal disease alone, it 
should be discussed with the Study Chair before removing the patient from the study.

longest diameter of a previous lesion >1 cm in short axis j 
• 
50% increase in circulating plasma cells (minimum of 200 cells 
per  L) if this is the only measure of disease 
a All response categories require two consecutive assessments (sCR, CR, VGPR, PR, 
MR, PD) made at any time before the institution of any new therapy.  sCR, CR, VGPR, 
PR, MR and SD categories require no known evidence of progressive or new bone 
lesions or extramedullary plasmacytomas if radiographic studies were performed. 
However, radiographic studies are not required to satisfy these response requirements.  
Bone marrow assessments need not be confirmed. Each category, except for stable 
disease, will have a working subcategory of “unconfirmed” [prefix ‘u”] to designate first 
time point at which response category MAY have been achieved if confirmed. The date 
of the initial test is considered as the date of response for evaluation of time dependent 
outcomes such as duration of response. 
 
b CR patient will need to progress at the same level as VGPR and PR patients to be 
considered a PD.  A positive immunofixation alone is not sufficient.

c If more than one M protein spike meets the criteria for measurable disease at baseline, 
then both need to be followed for response.  Otherwise, only follow the measurable M 
protein spike for response.   
 
d In patients in whom the only measurable disease is by serum FLC levels: CR in such 
patients indicates a normal FLC ratio of 0.26-1.65 in addition to the CR criteria listed 
above. 
 
e Bone marrow criteria for PD are only to be used in patients without measurable disease 
by M protein and by FLC;  
 
f A "25% increase" refers to M protein, FLC and bone marrow results and does not refer 
to bone lesions, soft tissue plasmacytoma or hypercalcemia.  The lowest value does not 
need to be a confirmed value.  If the lowest serum M-protein is ≥ 5 g/dL, an increase in 
serum M-protein of ≥ 1 g/dL is sufficient to define disease progression. 
 
g In the case where a value is felt to be a spurious result per physician discretion (for 
example, a possible lab error), that value will not be considered when determining the 
lowest value. 
 
h Progressive disease should be confirmed on two consecutive evaluations, where the 
timing of confirmation is per the treating physician and can be done immediately within 
the same cycle or on the next cycle.  However, treatment may be discontinued for 
progressive disease that is unconfirmed per physician discretion.  In this case, an 
objective status of PD should be entered on the measurement form and progressive 
disease should be reported on the event monitoring form. 
 
i Presence/absence of clonal cells is based upon the k/l ratio. An abnormal k/l ratio by 
immunohistochemistry requires a minimum of 100 plasma cells for analysis. An 
abnormal ratio reflecting presence of an abnormal clone is k/l of 4:1 or 1:2.  
 
j Plasmacytoma measurements should be taken from the CT portion of the PET/CT, or 
MRI scans, or dedicated CT scans where applicable. For patients with only skin 
involvement, skin lesions should be measured with a ruler. Measurement of tumor size 
will be determined by the sum of the products of the maximal perpendicular diameters of 
measured lesions (SPD).

Elotuzumab (Empliciti™) 
15.21 Background: Elotuzumab is an antineoplastic agent that is an antibody against 
the SLAMF7 antigen expression on cells including multiple myeloma. 
15.22 Formulation: Elotuzumab drug product is a 300 mg or 400 mg lyophilized 
powder in a single-dose vial for reconstitution. 
15.23 Preparation and storage: Once the dose is calculated (mg), determine the 
number of vials needed for the 10 mg/kg dosage based on patient weight. The 
volume of sterile water for injection (SWFI) needed for reconstitution should be 
calculated as follows: 
 
 
Reconstitution Instructions for EMPLICITI

16 ml* 
25 mg/ml 
*After reconstitution, each vial contains overfill to allow for withdrawal of 12 mL (300 mg) 
and 16 mL (400 mg), respectively. 
 
Reconstitution: Aseptically reconstitute each EMPLICITI vial with a syringe of 
adequate size and a less than or equal to 18-gauge needle (e.g., 17-gauge). A 
slight back pressure may be experienced during administration of the Sterile 
Water for Injection, USP, which is considered normal. Hold the vial upright and 
swirl the solution by rotating the vial to dissolve the lyophilized cake. Invert the 
vial a few times in order to dissolve any powder that may be present on top of the 
vial or the stopper. Avoid vigorous agitation. DO NOT SHAKE. The lyophilized 
powder should dissolve in less than 10 minutes. After the remaining solids are 
completely dissolved, allow the reconstituted solution to stand for 5 to 10 
minutes. The reconstituted preparation results in a colorless to slightly yellow, 
clear to slightly opalescent solution. Parenteral drug products should be inspected 
visually for particulate matter and discoloration prior to administration, whenever 
solution and container permit. Discard the solution if any particulate matter or 
discoloration is observed. 
 
Dilution: Once the reconstitution is completed, withdraw the necessary volume 
for the calculated dose from each vial, up to a maximum of 16 mL from 400 mg 
vial and 12 mL from 300 mg vial. Further dilute with 230 mL of either 0.9% 
Sodium Chloride Injection, USP or 5% Dextrose Injection, USP, into an infusion 
bag made of polyvinyl chloride or polyolefin. The volume of 0.9% Sodium 
Chloride Injection, USP or 5% Dextrose Injection, USP can be adjusted so as not 
to exceed 5 mL/kg of patient weight at any given dose of EMPLICITI. Complete 
the EMPLICITI infusion within 24 hours of reconstitution of the EMPLICITI 
lyophilized powder. If not used immediately, the infusion solution may be stored 
under refrigeration conditions: 2°C to 8°C (36°F-46°F) and protected from light. 
15.24 Administration: Intravenous (IV) infusion

with, other medicinal products. No physical or biochemical compatibility studies 
have been conducted to evaluate the coadministration of EMPLICITI with other 
agents. 
15.25 Pharmacokinetic Information: 
Elotuzumab exhibits nonlinear pharmacokinetics (PK), indicative of target 
mediated clearance. The administration of the recommended 10 mg/kg of 
Elotuzumab regimen with Lenalidomide and Dexamethasone is predicted to 
result in geometric mean (CV%) steady-state trough concentrations of 194 
μg/mL (52%).  
 
The clearance of Elotuzumab decreased from a geometric mean (CV%) of 17.5 
(21.2%) to 5.8 (31%) mL/day/kg with an increase in dose from 0.5 (i.e., 0.05 
times the recommended dosage) to 20 mg/kg (i.e., 2 times the recommended 
dosage). When Elotuzumab is administered with lenalidomide and 
dexamethasone, approximately 97% of the maximum steady-state concentration 
is predicted to be eliminated with a geometric mean (CV%) of 82.4 (48%) days. 
 
Clinically significant differences were not observed in the PK of Elotuzumab 
based on age (37 to 88 years) sex, race, baseline lactate dehydrogenase, albumin, 
renal imapairment(creatinine clearance (CLcr) 15 to 89 mL/min), end-stage renal 
disease (CLcr <15mL/min) with or without hemodialysis, and mild heptic 
impairment(total bilirubin ≤ upper limit of normal (ULN) and aspartate 
transaminase (AST)>ULN OR total bilirubin 1 to 1.5 times the ULN and AST 
any value) to severe (total bilirubin > 3 times the ULN and AST any value) 
hepatic impairment is unknown. 
 
The clearance of Elotuzumab increased with increasing body weight supporting a 
weight based dose. 
 
Half-life elimination ~97% of the maximum steady-state concentration is 
expected to be eliminated with a geometric mean (CV%) of 82.4 days.

approximately 10% of patients treated with Elotuzumab with 
Lenalidomide and Dexamethasone. All reports of infusion rection 
were Grade 3 or lower. Grade 3 infusion reactions occurred in 1 % of 
patients. The most common symptoms of IRRs included fever, chills 
and hypertension. Bradycardia and hypotension also developed during 
infusions.  
In the trial, 5% of patients required interruption of the administration 
of Elotuzumab for a median of 25 minutes due to infusion reactions, 
and 1% of patients discontinued due to infusion reactions. Of the 
patients who experienced an infusion reaction, 70% (23/33) had them 
during the first dose. 
Administer premedication consisting of dexamethasone, 
antihistamines (H1 and H2 blockers) and acetaminophen prior to 
Elotuzumab infusion. Interrupt Elotuzumab for Grade 2 or higher 
infusion reactions and institute appropriate medical management 
15.27 Drug Procurement: Drug will be procured from the commercial supply of 
elotuzumab.  
15.28 Special Populations: 
• 
Geriatric use: Of the 646 patients across treatment groups in the 
randomized trial in multiple mmyeloma, 57% were 65 years of age or

older. No overall differences in efficacy or safety were observed 
between patients 65 years or older and younger patients (less than 65 
years of age) 
• 
Renal impairment: CrCl ≤89 mL/minute. There are no dosage 
adjuments provided in the manufacturer’s labelling; however, based on 
pharmacokinetics, dosage adjustment is not likely necessary. 
• 
Hepatic Impairment: 
Mild (total bilirubin ≤ULN and AST >ULN or total bilirubin 1 to 1.5 times 
ULN and any AST) impairment: There are no dosage adjustments provided 
in the manufacturer's labeling; however, based on pharmacokinetics, dosage 
adjustment is not likely necessary.  
 
Moderate (total bilirubin >1.5 to 3 times ULN and any AST) to severe (total 
bilirubin >3 times ULN and any AST) impairment: There are no dosage 
adjustments provided in the manufacturer's labeling (has not been studied). 
 
Hepatotoxicity during treatment: Grade 3 or higher transaminase elevations: 
Withhold treatment; may consider continuing treatment after liver enzymes 
return to baseline 
15.29 Nursing Guidelines 
15.291 See section 15.24 for specific administration times and rates based on 
cycle/dose#. 
15.292 While no formal drug to drug interactions have been done, in theory 
elotuzumab may enhance the effects of other immunosuppressants agents 
and decreased the effectiveness of immune stimulant (see section 15.26 
for more detail) 
15.293 Agent may cause changes in heartrate, including bradycardia or 
tachycardia. Instruct patient to report any palpitations/fast heartrate or 
symptoms of bradycardia (fatigue/syncope) to the study team 
immediately. 
15.294 Gastrointestinal side effects can be seen, including diarrhea, constipation 
and vomiting. Treat symptomatically and monitor for effectiveness. 
15.295 Monitor CBC w/diff as cytopenias can be seen.  Instruct patient to 
reports any signs or symptoms of infection and/or bleeding to the study 
team. 
15.296 Monitor LFT’s. 
15.297 Monitor for infusion related reactions and have emergency equipment 
available. Administer emegerency medications as ordered and monitor 
for their effectiveness. 
15.298 Monitor creatinine, as rarely renal failure can happen. 
15.3 
Pomalidomide (Pomalyst®) 
15.31 Background: Pomalidomide is a novel drug in the class of immunomodulatory 
agents known as IMiDs compounds.  Pomalidomide binds to its molecular target 
cereblon (CRBN), a protein that is part of an E3 ubiquitin ligase complex, which 
is responsible for the polyubiquitination of substrate proteins, targeting them for 
subcellular redistribution and destruction by the proteasome. The pharmacologic 
properties of pomalidomide are of potential therapeutic benefit in the treatment 
of various hematologic neoplasms (such as multiple myeloma and 
myeloproliferative neoplasm-associated myelofibrosis), non-neoplastic 
hematologic disorders (such as β-thalassemia and sickle cell disease) and non-


MC1884 
51  
 
Protocol Version Date: 13Jan2022 
 
 
hematologic disorders such as systemic sclerosis, as well as solid tumor 
neoplasms. 
15.32 Formulation:  Pomalidomide capsules can be 0.5-mg gelatin capsules (size 4 
reddish brown), 1-mg hard gelatin capsules (size 4 reddish brown), 2-mg (size 2 
reddish-brown), 3-mg and 4-mg hard gelatin capsules (size 2 reddish-brown), and 
5-mg hard gelatin capsules (size 1 reddish-brown), containing pomalidomide, 
mannitol, pregelatinized starch, and sodium stearyl fumarate. 
15.33 Placebo capsules for pomalidomide are available to use in blinded 
studies. The placebo capsules contain microcrystalline cellulose.  
 
 
Pomalidomide capsules and pomalidomide placebo capsules are supplied in high 
density polyethylene (HDPE) containers fitted with induction seals and child-
resistant plastic closures or PVC/PCTFE blister with push-through foil. 
15.33   Preparation and storage:  Store drug at controlled room temperature, 
between 68-77 ºF (20-25ºC) or as indicated on the manufacturer’s label.  
The expiration date is indicated on the label.  
 
 
Only enough drug for one month of therapy may be dispensed. 
15.34 Administration:  Pomalidomide is administered by mouth at 
approximately the same time each day.  Pomalidomide should be taken 
without food (at least 2 hours before or 2 hours after a meal).  Capsules 
should be swallowed whole, and should not be broken, chewed or opened. 
If a dose of pomalidomide is missed, it should be taken as soon as possible 
on the same day. If it is missed for the entire day, it should not be made up.  
Patients should be instructed never to give this medicinal product to 
another person and to return any unused capsules to the study doctor at the 
end of treatment.  Patients who take more than the prescribed dose of 
pomalidomide should be instructed to seek emergency medical care if 
needed and contact study staff immediately. 
15.35 Pharmacokinetic information:  
a)  Absorption – oral absorption has been moderately rapid with first dose Cmax 
occurring in 1.5 to 4 hrs. More than 70% of the pomalidomide dose is absorbed 
in humans.  A high fat meal decreased the rate of absorption but had minimal 
effect on overall extent of absorption; therefore drug may be administered 
without regard to food intake. 
b)  Distribution – Apparent volume of distribution in healthy subjects 
ranged from 74-138 L across a dose range of 1 to 10 mg daily.  
Pomalidomide protein binding in human plasma is low to moderate 
(15.8% for R-enantiomer, 42.2% for S-enantiomer) and the binding is 
concentration independent in the concentration range of 30 and 1000 
ng/mL.  Drug distributes into semen. 
 
c)  Metabolism – Eight metabolites were detected in plasma, each at 
exposures < 10% of the plasma pomalidomide.  CYP-dependent 
metabolites accounted for approximately 43% of the excreted 
radioactivity, while non-CYP dependent hydrolytic metabolites accounted 
for 25%, and excretion of unchanged pomalidomide accounted for 10%. 
d)  Excretion – In healthy patients, 72.8% of the dose was recovered in 
urine and 15.5% was recovered in feces. Less than 3% of the dose is 
excreted as unchanged pomalidomide in the urine.  The geometric mean 


MC1884 
52  
 
Protocol Version Date: 13Jan2022 
 
 
terminal elimination half-life (t1/2) of pomalidomide was approximately 7.5 
hours. 
Pomalidomide is metabolized primarily by the liver. Following single dose 
administration, the AUC of pomalidomide increased 51%, 58%, and 72% 
in subjects with mild (Child-Pugh class A), moderate (Child-Pugh class 
B), and severe (Child-Pugh class C) hepatic impairment compared to 
subjects with normal liver function. Dose adjustment is recommended in 
patients with hepatic impairment. 
For patients with mild or moderate hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh 
classes A or B), the recommended starting dose is 3 mg daily (25% dose 
reduction). For patients with severe hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh class 
C), the recommended dose is 2 mg (50% dose reduction) 
15.36 Potential Drug Interactions:  Pomalidomide is partially metabolized by 
CYP1A2 and CYP3A4/5.  Pomalidomide is also a substrate for P-
glycoprotein (P-gp). Coadministration of pomalidomide with the strong 
CYP3A4/5 and P-gp inhibitor ketoconazole, or the strong CYP3A4/5 
inducer carbamazepine, had no clinically relevant effect on exposure to 
pomalidomide.  Coadministration of the strong CYP1A2 inhibitor 
fluvoxamine with pomalidomide increased mean exposure to 
pomalidomide by 125% compared to pomalidomide alone. If strong 
inhibitors of CYP1A2 are coadministered with pomalidomide, the 
pomalidomide dose by should be reduced 50%. 
Smoking: Administration of pomalidomide in smokers, with smoking 
tobacco known to induce the CYP1A2 isoform, had no clinically relevant 
effect on exposure to pomalidomide relative to that exposure to 
pomalidomide observed in non-smokers. 
Dexamethasone: Co-administration of multiple doses of 4 mg 
pomalidomide with 20 mg to 40 mg dexamethasone (a weak inducer of 
CYP3A) to patients with multiple myeloma had no effect on the 
pharmacokinetics of pomalidomide compared with pomalidomide 
administered alone.

15.38 Drug procurement: 
Drug will be procured from the commercial supply of pomalidomide. 
15.39 Nursing Guidelines 
15.191 Agent is known to be teratogenic in rabbits.  Therefore, all women 
who are pregnant or who could become pregnant should not 
handle the agent outside of the original packaging. Chemotherapy 
gloves should be worn if contact is necessary. 
15.192 Because of the similarity of this agent to thalidomide certain 
precautions MUST be employed by all subjects on protocol and 
for 4 weeks after discontinuation of agent. Instruct patients the 
following must be adhered to: No donation of 
tissue/blood/semen/sperm; sexually active males/ females must 
use protocol-specific contraception (regardless of fertility status-
i.e. history of vasectomy). 
15.193 Cytopenias are common (neutropenia most common). Monitor 
CBC closely and instruct patient to report any signs/symptoms of 
infection or unusual bruising or bleeding to the study team. 
15.194 Thrombotic events have been reported. Anticoagulation 
prophylaxis may be recommended. Instruct patients to report any 
problems with bleeding, extremity pain or swelling, or shortness 
of breath to the study team immediately.

16.0 
Statistical Considerations and Methodology  
16.1 
Overview 
This is a phase II study of elotuzumab, pomalidomide and dexamethasone in patients 
with multiple myeloma refractory to daratumumab.  This study is designed to assess the 
overall response rate using a one stage phase II study design with an interim analysis. 
 
16.11 Primary Endpoint: The primary endpoint of this study is the overall response 
rate.  A response is defined as a PR,VGPR, CR, or sCR noted as the objective 
status on two consecutive evaluations.   All patients meeting the eligibility 
criteria, who have signed a consent form and have begun treatment will be 
evaluable for response, unless they are determined to be a major violation. 
 
16.12 Sample Size: The one stage study design with an interim analysis to be used is 
fully described below. A minimum of 17 and a maximum of 37 evaluable 
patients will be accrued total onto this phase II study unless undue toxicity is 
encountered. We anticipate accruing an additional 4 patients to account for 
ineligibility, cancellation, major treatment violation, or other reasons for a total 
of 41 patients overall. 
 
16.13 Accrual Rate and Study Duration:  The anticipated accrual rate is 2 evaluable 
multiple myeloma patients per month. Therefore, the accrual period for this 
phase II study is expected to be about 2 years. The maximum total study duration 
is expected to be approximately 5 years, or until the last patient accrued has been 
observed for at least 3 years after registration. 
16.2 
Statistical Design: 
 
 
16.21 Decision Rule: 
The largest success proportion where the proposed treatment regimen would be 
considered ineffective in this population is 20% (based on data from quad- and 
penta-refractory disease data in recent clinical trials), and the smallest success 
proportion that would warrant subsequent studies with the proposed regimen in 
this patient population is 40%. The following one–stage design with an interim 
analysis is based on a two-stage Simon optimum design(23) and requires 37 
evaluable patients to test the null hypothesis that the true success proportion in 
this patient population is at most 20%. 
 
 
 
16.211 Interim Analysis: Enter 17 evaluable patients into the study. If 3 or fewer 
successes are observed in the first 17 evaluable patients, we will consider 
this regimen ineffective in this patient population and terminate the 
study.  Otherwise, if the number of successes is at least 4, we will 
continue accrual. 
16.212 Final Decision Rule:  Enter an additional 20 evaluable patients into the 
study.  If 10 or fewer successes are observed in the first 37 evaluable 
patients, we will consider this regimen ineffective in this patient 
population and terminate this study. Otherwise, if the number of 
successes is at least 11, this will be considered evidence of promising 
activity and the treatment may be recommended for further testing in 
subsequent studies in this population. 


MC1884 
56  
 
Protocol Version Date: 13Jan2022 
 
 
16.213 Over Accrual: If more than the target number of patients are accrued, the 
additional patients will not be used to evaluate the stopping rule or used 
in any decision making process. 
16.214 NOTE:  We will not suspend accrual at the interim analysis to allow the 
first 17 patients to become evaluable, unless undue toxicity is observed. 
Given the limited overall sample size and the inclusion of an adverse 
events stopping rule, we feel it is ethical to not halt accrual for the 
interim analysis. However, if accrual is extremely rapid, we may 
temporarily suspend accrual in order to obtain safety data on these 
patients before re-opening accrual to further patients. 
 
16.22 Power and Significance Level: Assuming that the number of successes is 
binomially distributed, the significance level is .09, i.e. there is a 9% chance of 
finding the drug to be effective when it truly is not.  The probability of declaring 
that this regimen warrants further study (i.e. statistical power) and the probability 
of stopping at the interim analysis under various success proportions can be 
tabulated as a function of the true success proportion as shown in the following 
table. 
 
 
If the true success proportion is... 
0.20 
0.25 
0.30 
0.35 
0.40 
Then the probability of declaring 
that the regimen warrants further 
study is… 
0.09 
0.28 
0.54 
0.76 
0.90 
And the probability of stopping at 
the interim analysis is… 
0.55 
0.35 
0.20 
0.10 
0.05 
 
16.23 Other considerations:  Adverse events, quality/duration of response, and patterns 
of treatment failure observed in this study, as well as scientific discoveries or 
changes in standard care will be taken into account in any decision to terminate 
the study. 
 
16.3 
Analysis Plan 
The analysis for this trial will commence at planned time points (see 16.2) and at the time 
the patients have become evaluable for the primary endpoint. The Statistician and Study 
Chair will make the decision, in accord with CCS Standard Operating Procedures, 
availability of data for secondary endpoints (e.g., laboratory correlates), and the level of 
data maturity. It is anticipated that the earliest date in which the results will be made 
available via manuscript, abstract, or presentation format is when all patients have been 
followed for at least 6 cycles or have discontinued study treatment prior to completing 6 
cycles. 
 
16.31 Primary Outcome Analysis: 
16.311 Definition: The primary endpoint of this trial is the overall response rate. 
A response is defined as a PR,VGPR, CR, or sCR noted as the objective 
status on two consecutive evaluations.   All patients meeting the 
eligibility criteria who have signed a consent form and have begun 
treatment will be evaluable for response, unless they are determined to be 
a major violation. 
16.312 Estimation:  The proportion of successes will be estimated by the number 
of successes divided by the total number of evaluable patients. Ninety-


MC1884 
57  
 
Protocol Version Date: 13Jan2022 
 
 
five percent confidence intervals for the true success proportion will be 
calculated according to the approach of Duffy and Santner.(24) 
16.313 Over Accrual:  If more than the target number of patients are accrued, the 
additional patients will not be used to evaluate the stopping rule or used 
in any decision making processes; however, they will be included in final 
point estimates and confidence intervals. 
 
 
 
16.32 Secondary Outcome Analyses 
16.321 The complete response rate will be estimated by the number of patients 
who achieve a sCR or CR divided by the total number of evaluable 
patients. Exact binomial 95% confidence intervals for the true complete 
response rate will be calculated. 
16.322 Progression-free survival time is defined as the time from registration to 
the time of progression or death due to any cause. Patients who are alive 
and progression-free will be censored on the date of their last disease 
assessment. Patients who receive subsequent treatment for myeloma 
before disease progression will be censored on the date of their last 
disease assessment prior to initiation of the subsequent treatment. The 
distribution of progression-free survival will be estimated using the 
method of Kaplan-Meier.(25) 
16.323 Survival time is defined as the time from registration to death due to any 
cause. The distribution of survival time will be estimated using the 
method of Kaplan-Meier. 
16.324 Adverse Events: All eligible patients that have initiated treatment will be 
considered evaluable for assessing adverse event rate(s).  The maximum 
grade for each type of adverse event will be recorded for each patient, 
and frequency tables will be reviewed to determine patterns.  
Additionally, the relationship of the adverse event(s) to the study 
treatment will be taken into consideration. 
16.4 
Data & Safety Monitoring 
16.41 Safety review 
The principal investigator(s) and the study statistician will review the study 
monthly to identify accrual, adverse event, and any endpoint problems that might 
be developing. The Mayo Clinic Cancer Center (MCCC) Data Safety Monitoring 
Board (DSMB) is responsible for reviewing accrual and safety data for this trial 
at least biannually, based on reports provided by the MCCC Statistical Office. 
16.42 Adverse Event Stopping Rules  
The stopping rules specified below are based on the knowledge available at study 
development.  We note that the Adverse Event Stopping Rule may be adjusted in 
the event of either (1) the study re-opening to accrual or (2) at any time during 
the conduct of the trial and in consideration of newly acquired information 
regarding the adverse event profile of the treatment(s) under investigation.  The 
study team may choose to suspend accrual because of unexpected adverse event 
profiles that have not crossed the specified rule below. 
 
Accrual will be temporarily suspended to this study if at any time we observe 
events considered at least possibly related to study treatment (i.e. an adverse 


MC1884 
58  
 
Protocol Version Date: 13Jan2022 
 
 
event with attribute specified as  “possible,” “probable,” or “definite”) that 
satisfy one of the following: 
o If 5 or more patients in the first 15 treated patients experience a grade 4 or 
higher non-hematologic adverse event at least possibly related to treatment. 
o If after the first 15 patients have been treated, 30% of all patients experience 
a grade 4 or higher non-hematologic adverse event at least possibly related to 
treatment. 
 
We note that we will review grade 4 and 5 adverse events deemed “unrelated” or 
“unlikely to be related”, to verify their attribution and to monitor the emergence 
of a previously unrecognized treatment-related adverse event. 
 
 
16.5 
Results Reporting on ClinicalTrials.gov 
At study activation, this study will have been registered within the “ClincialTrails.gov” 
website. The Primary and Secondary Endpoints along with other required information for 
this study will be reported on www.ClinicalTrials.gov. For purposes of timing of the 
Results Reporting, the initial estimated completion date for the Primary Endpoint of this 
study is 3 years after the study opens to accrual. The definition of “Primary Endpoint 
Completion Date” (PECD) for this study is at the time all patients registered have either 
achieved a response (PR or better noted as the objective status on two consecutive 
evaluations) or have discontinued study treatment without achieving a response. 
 
16.6 
Subset Analyses for Minorities 
16.61 Study availability 
This study will be available to all eligible patients, regardless of gender, race or 
ethnic origin.  
16.62 Statistical analysis by subset 
There is no information currently available regarding differential effects of this 
regimen in subsets defined by race, gender, or ethnicity, and there is no reason to 
expect such differences to exist. Therefore, although the planned analyses will 
look for differences in treatment effect based on racial groupings, the sample size 
is not increased in order to provide additional power for subset analyses.  
16.63 Regional population 
The geographical region served by MCCC has a population which includes 
approximately 3% minorities. Expected sizes of racial by gender subsets are 
shown in the following table:

management system. Access to the trial in Rave is granted through the iMedidata 
application to all persons with the appropriate roles assigned in Regulatory Support 
System (RSS). To access Rave via iMedidata, the site user must have an active account 
and the appropriate Rave role (Rave CRA, Read-Only, Site Investigator) on either the 
organization roster at the enrolling site. 
18.4 
Site responsibilities 
Each site will be responsible for insuring that all materials contain the patient’s initials, 
MCCC registration number, and MCCC protocol number. Patient’s name must be 
removed. 
18.5 
Supporting documentation  
This study requires supporting documentation for diagnosis prior to study entry as well as 
for evidence of response to study therapy and progression after study therapy. Supporting 
documentation for diagnosis will include either a pathology report or a laboratory report 
demonstrating multiple myeloma (including SPEP, UPEP, FLC, Serum and Urine 
Immunofixation, Bone Marrow Biopsy and Aspirate, skeletal bone survey, PET scan, 
Plasma Cell Proliferation and Assessment and FISH). These reports should be uploaded 
into the Supporting Documentation: Baseline form within 14 days of registration. 
 
For progression of disease prior to study entry, supporting documentation includes the 
evidence needed to determine the patient’s progression prior to enrollment. These 
documents should be uploaded into the Supporting Documentation: Baseline form within 
14 days of registration. 
 
For response to treatment, supporting documentation may include SPEP, UPEP, FLC, 
Serum and Urine Immunofixation, Bone Marrow Biopsy and aspirate, skeletal bone 
survey, and PET scan. These documents should be uploaded into the Supporting 
Documentation form. 
  
For patients who progress after study therapy supporting documentation may include any 
of the following: SPEP, UPEP, FLC, serum and urine immunofixation, bone marrow 
biopsy and aspirate, skeletal bone survey, and PET scan. These documents should be 
uploaded into the Supporting Documentation form.

1. 
Why are you being asked to take part in this research study? 
 
 
You are being asked to take part in this research study because you have been diagnosed with 
Multiple Myeloma, previously treated with daratumumab as part of their standard of care, and 
are considered eligible to participate.  The plan is to have about 41 people take part in this study 
at Mayo Clinic. 
 
 
2. 
Why is this research study being done? 
 
 
The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of combining the drugs elotuzumab, 
pomalidomide and dexamethasone in patients who do not respond to daratumumab based 
treatment.  Everyone in this study will receive the combination of elotuzumab, pomalidomide, 
and dexamethasone which is still experimental and isn’t approved by the U.S. Food and Drug 
Administration (FDA). However, the FDA has allowed the use of this drug combination in this 
research study.  We hope the information from this study will help us improve treatment for 
patients with Multiple Myeloma.

Information you should know 
 
 
Who is Funding the Study? 
 
This study will be funded by the Mayo Clinic Division of Hematology-Oncology 
 
Information Regarding Conflict of Interest: 
 
Your healthcare provider may be referring you to this research study. If your healthcare provider 
is also an investigator on this study, there is the chance that his or her responsibilities for the 
study could influence his or her recommendation for your participation. If you prefer, your 
healthcare provider will be happy to refer you to another investigator on the research study team 
for you to decide if you want to participate in the study and to see you for the research study 
activities while you are in the study.

What will happen to you while you are in this research study? 
 
 
If you agree to be in the study, you will be asked to participate in the following: 
 
Screening Visit  
During these visits, we will do some tests and procedures to see if you are eligible to take part in 
this research study. The Principal Investigator will review the results of these tests and 
procedures. If you aren’t eligible, the Principal Investigator will tell you why. At this visit we 
will: 
• Ask you about your medical history  
• Give you a physical exam, including height, weight, and “vital signs” (blood pressure, 
temperature, heart and breathing rates)  
• Draw a blood sample  
• Ask you for a urine sample  
• Test your blood and/or urine for pregnancy if you are a female able to become pregnant  
• Bone Marrow Aspirate/Biopsy. 
• PET/CT scan  
 
Day 1 of Every Cycle (Each cycle = 28 days) 
• Physical Exam 
• Draw a blood sample  
• Ask you for a urine sample  
• Test your blood and/or urine for pregnancy if you are a female able to become pregnant 
• Bone Marrow Aspirate/Biopsy (if clinically necessary) 
• PET/CT scan (if clinically necessary)

Day 15 for Cycles 1-2 only 
• Draw a blood sample  
• Ask you for a urine sample 
• PET/CT scan (if clinically necessary)  
 
These exams, tests or procedures are part of regular clinical care and may be done even if you do 
not join the study. If you have had some of them recently, they may not need to be repeated. This 
will be up to the Principal Investigator. 
  
During this period, we will also ask you to keep a pill diary for your dexamethasone and 
pomalidomide tablets. Pomalidomide should be taken without food (at least 2 hours before or 2 
hours after a meal). Do not open or crush capsules. Missed doses are to be omitted rather than 
made up, unless the dose was forgotten and remembered on the same day, in which case the dose 
can be taken that day. Any doses missed on a particular day are not to be made up the next day. 
Doses that are considered to be vomited are not to be made up and a mention about the time of 
dose and time of vomiting episode should be made in the pill diary.   
 
End of Treatment 
• Physical Exam  
• Draw a blood sample  
• Ask you for a urine sample  
• Test your blood and/or urine for pregnancy if you are a female able to become pregnant  
• Bone Marrow Aspirate/Biopsy 
• PET/CT Scan  
 
Follow-up 
After you have completed the end of treatment visit, you will be contacted by study staff to 
check if you have experienced any adverse events and to confirm your disease status. The timing 
of contact may vary depending on your disease status and if you report an adverse event. Contact 
is as follows:  
• Every 3 months until your disease progresses 
• At disease progression, if applicable 
• Every 6 months after disease progression 
• New adverse events occurrences 
 
After you have been followed for 3 years from the date you entered the study, no further follow-
up will be required; therefore, the study staff will no longer contact you.
