Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

  • 1.Must be able to understand and voluntarily sign an informed consent form
  • 2.Must be able to adhere to the study visit schedule and other protocol requirements
  • 3.Age ³ 65 years (at least 65 years of age or older)
  • 4.Life expectancy > 6 months.
  • 5.Patients must have Symptomatic Measurable previously Untreated MM, as defined below:
  • 5.1.Symptomatic MM diagnostic criteria (all 3 required)
  • Monoclonal plasma cells in the bone marrow =10%
  • Monoclonal protein present in the serum and/or urine.
  • Myeloma-related organ dysfunction (at least one of the following)1
  • [C] Calcium elevation in the blood (serum calcium >10.5 mg/dl or upper limit of normal)
  • [R] Renal insufficiency (serum creatinine >2 mg/dL)
  • [A] Anemia (hemoglobin <10 g/dL or 2 g < normal)
  • [B] Lytic bone lesions and/or presence of a biopsy-proven plasmacytoma*
  • 1 A variety of other types of end organ dysfunctions can occasionally occur and lead to a need for therapy. Such dysfunction is sufficient to support classification as myeloma if proven to be myeloma-related.
  • *If a solitary (biopsy-proven) plasmacytoma or osteoporosis alone (without fractures) are the sole defining criteria, then > 30% plasma cells are required in the bone marrow or proven plasmocytic infiltration in bone marrow biopsy
  • 5.2.AND have measurable disease as defined by the following: Patients must have a clearly detectable and quantifiable monoclonal M-component value in the serum and/or urine.
  • ?IgG (serum M-component > 10g/l)
  • ?IgA (serum M-component > 5g/l)
  • ?IgD (serum M-component > 0.5g/l)
  • ?Light chain (serum M-component >1g/l or Bence Jones > 200mg/24H)
  • ?Serum FLC assay: involved FLC level > 10 mg/dl provided serum FLC ratio is abnormal
  • 6.Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status score of 0, 1, or 2
  • 7.Adequate bone marrow function, documented within 72 hours and without transfusion 5 days prior to the first intake of investigational product (C1J1) nor growth factor support, defined as:
  • Absolute neutrophils = 0.75 x109/L,
  • Untransfused Platelet count = 75 x109/L
  • Hemoglobine =8.5 g/L
  • 8.Adequate organ function defined as:
  • Serum total bilirubin < 2.0 mg/dL
  • Clairance creatinine = 30ml/min
  • Serum SGOT/AST or SGPT/ALT < 2.5x upper limit of normal (ULN)
  • 9.Subjects affiliated with an appropriate social security system.
  • 10.Male subjects must:
  • 10.1. Understand the potential teratogenic, and genotoxic risk of Melphalan if engaged in sexual activity with a pregnant female or a female of childbearing potential.
  • 10.2. Understand the potential genotoxic risk of Carfilzomib if engaged in sexual activity with a pregnant female or a female of childbearing potential.
  • 10.3. Practice complete abstinence or understand the need and agree to use a condom during sexual contact with a pregnant female or a female of childbearing potential throughout the entire duration of study treatment, during dose interruptions and until at least 3 months after the end of treatment discontinuation of CMP, even if he has undergone a successful vasectomy. If pregnancy or a positive pregnancy test does occur in the partner of a male study patient during study participation, the investigator must be notified immediately.
  • 10.4. Agree not to donate semen or sperm during study drug therapy and until at least 3 months after the end of treatment discontinuation of CMP.
  • Are the trial subjects under 18? no
  • Number of subjects for this age range:
  • F.1.2 Adults (18-64 years) no
  • F.1.2.1 Number of subjects for thi

  • 4.Patient with terminal renal failure that require dialysis and clairance creatinine < 30 ml/min
  • 5.Prior history of malignancies, other than multiple myeloma, unless the patients has been free of the disease for = 5 years. Exceptions include the following:
  • Basal or squamous cell carcinoma of the skin
  • Carcinoma in situ of the cervix or breast
  • Incidental histologic finding of prostate cancer (TNM stage of T1a or T1b)
  • 6.Prior local irradiation within two weeks before first dose
  • 7.Evidence of central nervous system (CNS) involvement

  • 9.Ongoing active infection
  • 10.Any ongoing adverse event or medical history > grade 2 severity
  • 11.Refusal to participate in the study
  • 12.Persons protected by a legal regime (guardianship, trusteeship)
  • 13.Alkeran’s (Melphalan) contraindication: Hypersensitivity to Melphalan or to any other constituents.
  • 14.Patients with heart failure class 3 and 4 according to the NYHA criteria, or patients with past history of myocardial infarction within the last 6 months or no controlled cardiac conduction abnormalities.
  • 15.Patients with a left ventricular ejection fraction under or equal to 30 % (LVEF = 30%).
