Lenalidomide, Dexamethasone and MEDI-551 in Untreated Multiple Myeloma

Early Phase 1
Completed
Conditions
Myeloma
Interventions
Drug: Lenalidomide, Dexamethasone, and MEDI-551
Registration Number
NCT01861340
Lead Sponsor
Sidney Kimmel Comprehensive Cancer Center at Johns Hopkins
Brief Summary

This research study is being done to see if combining the investigational chemotherapy drug, MEDI-551 with the known anti-myeloma drugs, Lenalidomide and Dexamethasone will reduce your myeloma cancer stem cells.

Detailed Description

To explore the effect of Lenalidomide, dexamethasone and Medi-551 on multiple myeloma cancer stem cells (CSCs). Myeloma CSCs will be assessed by a clonogenic assay from the bone marrow and flow cytometry from peripheral blood.

  • Patients with hepatitis C antibody will be eligible provided that they do not have elevated liver transaminases or other evidence of active hepatitis.
  • Documented current central nervous system involvement by multiple myeloma.
  • Previous medical history or evidence of an intercurrent illness that may, in the opinion of the investigator, compromise the safety of the patient in the study.
  • Diagnosis of plasma cell leukemia
  • Diagnosis of POEMS syndrome
  • Diagnosis of Amyloidosis
