Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Improvement of lenalidomide-associated diarrhea evaluated by CTCAE 5.04 weeks

To evaluate the ability of colesevelam to improve lenalidomide-associated diarrhea in participants with multiple myeloma treated with lenalidomide maintenance. Diarrhea will be evaluated using Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) grading. The primary end-point is improvement of diarrhea to grade 1 or better according to the CTCAE 5.0 scale by 4 weeks of treatment with colesevelam.

Secondary Outcome Measures

GI symptom assessment4 weeks

To assess GI symptoms using Patient Reported Outcomes within the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events
