Open-label Study of TH-302 and Dexamethasone With or Without Bortezomib or Pomalidomide in Subjects With Relapsed/Refractory Multiple Myeloma
- Registration Number
- NCT01522872
- Lead Sponsor
- Threshold Pharmaceuticals
- Brief Summary
This phase 2 study is designed to evaluate the safety and tolerability activity of TH-302 and dexamethasone with or without bortezomib or pomalidomide in subjects with relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma.
- Detailed Description
This is the initial study of TH-302 in subjects with relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma. It is an open-label dose-escalation study to determine the DLTs, MTD, safety and preliminary efficacy of TH-302 and dexamethasone with a Simon two-stage expansion at the MTD. The study will also investigate the DLTs, MTD, safety and preliminary efficacy of TH-302, dexamethasone and bortezomib; and the DLTs, MTD, safety and preliminary efficacy of TH-302, dexamethasone and pomalidomide. As such, the study is separated into four parts. Treatment will be administered until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity, or 12 cycles (Arm A, Arm B and Arm C) or 9 cycles (Arm D) have been completed.

- Subjects who participated in an investigational drug or device study within 2 weeks prior to study entry
- Known or suspected active infection with HIV, hepatitis A, hepatitis B, or hepatitis C
- Subjects who have exhibited allergic reactions to a similar structural compound, biological agent, or formulation similar to TH-302, bortezomib (for subjects enrolled in Part C only), pomalidomide (Part D), dexamethasone or pimonidazole
- Females who are pregnant or breast-feeding
- Concomitant psychiatric disease or medical condition that could interfere with the conduct of the study, or that would, in the opinion of the investigator, pose an unacceptable risk to the subject in this study
