Study Overview

Brief Summary

This randomized phase II trial studies how well giving bortezomib with or without combination chemotherapy works as consolidation therapy in patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma who have completed stem cell transplant. Bortezomib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cyclophosphamide, dexamethasone, and lenalidomide, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. It is not yet known whether giving bortezomib is more effective with or without combination chemotherapy in the post transplant setting.

Detailed Description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To compare the stringent complete response (sCR) rate after 12 cycles among arms.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To compare progression-free and overall survival among arms. II. To describe the adverse event profile of each arm.

Exclusion Criteria

  • Other active malignancy =< 3 years prior to registration; EXCEPTIONS: Non-melanotic skin cancer or carcinoma-in-situ of the cervix; NOTE: If there is a history of prior malignancy, they must not be receiving other specific treatment for their cancer
  • Other co-morbidity which would interfere with patient's ability to participate in trial, e.g. uncontrolled infection, uncompensated heart or lung disease
  • Other concurrent chemotherapy, radiotherapy, or any ancillary therapy considered investigational; NOTE: Bisphosphonates are considered to be supportive care rather than therapy, and are thus allowed while on protocol treatment
  • Known to be human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), hepatitis C virus (HCV) or hepatitis B virus positive (HBV+)
  • Hypersensitivity to study drugs, boron or mannitol
  • Patient refractory to bortezomib (defined as patients who progressed while on bortezomib or within 60 days of receiving bortezomib)
  • Any serious medical or psychiatric condition that would prevent the subject from complying with the protocol treatment and procedures
  • Grade >= 2 peripheral neuropathy
  • Myocardial infarction within 6 months prior to enrollment or has New York Heart Association (NYHA) Class III or IV heart failure, uncontrolled angina, severe uncontrolled ventricular arrhythmias, or electrocardiographic evidence of acute ischemia or active conduction system abnormalities; prior to study entry, any electrocardiogram (ECG) abnormality at screening must be documented by the investigator as not medically relevant
  • Participation in clinical trials with other investigational agents not included in this trial, within 14 days of the start of this trial and throughout the duration of this trial
  • Radiation therapy within 3 weeks before randomization; enrollment of subjects who require concurrent radiotherapy (which must be localized in its field size) should be deferred until the radiotherapy is completed and 3 weeks have elapsed since the last date of therapy
  • Female patients who are lactating or pregnant

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Proportion of Patients Experiencing a Stringent Complete Response (sCR) After 12 Cycles, 24 Months

Time Frame: 24 months

Estimated by the number of sCRs divided by the total number of evaluable patients in each arm. Exact binomial confidence intervals for the true sCR rate will be calculated by arm. Stringent complete response (sCR) is defined as a complete response plus normal serum free light chain ratio and the absence of clonal cells in bone marrow by flow cytometry.

Secondary Outcomes

  • Survival Time(From registration to death due to any cause, assessed up to 3 years)
  • Progression-free Survival(From registration to the earliest date of documentation of disease progression or death due to any cause, assessed up to 3 years)
