Study to Assess for Measurable Residual Disease (MRD) in Multiple Myeloma Patients
- Conditions
- Multiple Myeloma

- Other: Screening PhaseDevice: Discontinuation Phase
- Registration Number
- NCT04108624
- Lead Sponsor
- University of Chicago
- Brief Summary
This study is to assess for Measurable Residual Disease (MRD) in multiple myeloma at a deeper level than what is currently available by combining novel imaging and laboratory techniques, determine if patients who are MRD-negative by these multiple modalities can safely and effectively discontinue post-transplant maintenance therapy, and determine if liquid biopsies is a more accurate and/or less invasive sampling technique for multiple myeloma.
The purpose of this research is to determine if patients who are MRD-negative by multiple modalities ("multimodality MRD-negative") can safely and effectively discontinue post-transplant maintenance therapy (single agent lenalidomide, pomalidomide, bortezomib, or ixazomib) after receiving at least one year of maintenance therapy.

- Sex
- All
- Target Recruitment
- 56
- Males and females > 18 years of age
- ECOG performance status less than or equal to 2 (Karnofsky > 60%)
- Patients with a diagnosis of multiple myeloma who have undergone initial treatment, with or without autologous stem cell transplant, and currently treated with single-agent maintenance therapy (lenalidomide, pomalidomide, bortezomib, daratumumab, or ixazomib) for a duration of at least 1 year. The 1 year duration can include time spent receiving at least 8 cycles of doublet or triplet induction regimens OR multi-agent post-transplant maintenance prior to conversion to single agent maintenance therapy.
- Patients must have had their most recent bone marrow testing within the last 2 years and negative for MRD by flow cytometry (with a sensitivity of at least 10-5) or by NGS with a sensitivity of at least 10-5.
- Patients must have achieved a CR (CR) by IMWG consensus response criteria. For patients with a persistent low level paraprotein ('M-spike'), mass spectrometry may be used to determine if the paraprotein is significant or not. Results of mass spectrometry may be used to supercede results of serum protein electrophoresis.
- Patients must have a most recent PET/CT within the last 1.5 years without evidence of myeloma disease.
- Must have baseline bone marrow sample that can be used for clonality identification for NGS and mass spectrometry if not already performed.
- Willing and able to undergo a bone marrow biopsy and aspiration.
- Ability to understand and the willingness to sign a written informed consent document.
- Females of childbearing potential (FCBP) must agree to use 2 reliable forms of contraception simultaneously or to practice complete abstinence from heterosexual intercourse during the following time periods related to this study: 1) if continued on lenalidomide as part of standard of care and 2) for at least 28 days after discontinuation of lenalidomide
- All participants in the US must have already been consented to and registered into the mandatory Revlimid REMS® program and be willing and able to comply with the requirements of Revlimid REMS®.
- Patients with a prior or concurrent malignancy whose natural history or treatment does not have the potential to interfere with the safety or efficacy assessment of the intervention are eligible for this trial.
- Progressive disease as determined per IMWG consensus response criteria.
- Have not met the criteria for CR by IMWG consensus response criteria.
- MRD-positive disease by flow cytometry, NGS (1 in 1,000,000 cells), or PCR.
- Concomitant hematologic malignancy.
- Known or suspected amyloidosis.
- Unwilling to undergo a bone marrow biopsy.
- Unwilling to discontinue maintenance therapy.
- Any clinically significant medical disease or condition that, in the Treating Investigator's opinion, may interfere with protocol adherence or a subject's ability to give informed consent.

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Determine the MRD conversion rate 3 years Determine the MRD conversion rate from 1 in 1,000,000 cells and 1 in 10,000,000 cells negative to positive after discontinuation of maintenance therapy.
Median Progression Free Survival rate 3 years Assess progression free survival of double MRD-negative (1 in 1,000,000 cells negative/1 in 10,000,000 cells negative) patients and of the 1 in 1,000,000 cells negative/1 in 10,000,000 cells positive patients who have discontinued maintenance therapy
Median overall survival rate 3 years Assess overall survival of double MRD-negative (1 in 1,000,000 cells negative/1 in 10,000,000 cells negative) patients and of the 1 in 1,000,000 cells negative/1 in 10,000,000 cells positive patients who have discontinued maintenance therapy.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method NGS-based Minimal Residual Disease testing determined by the ClonoSeq assay 3 years Determine the feasibility of performing NGS-based MRD testing of bone marrow aspirate samples that have undergone CD138+ immunomagnetic cell separation (i.e. 1 in 10,000,000 cells depth) will be determined by the rate of achieving 20 million cells in raw aspirate sample with a sufficient DNA for analysis as determined by the ClonoSeq assay.
Determine the difference in MRD detection by NGS 3 years Determine the difference in MRD detection by NGS in the bone marrow at depths of 1 in 1,000,000 cells and 1 in 10,000,000 cells.
