- Brief Summary
Overview of Study Design:
This is an open phase II, single-arm, multi-center study to evaluate progression free survival in patients receiving ixazomib in combination with thalidomide and dexamethasone (ITD) followed by an ixazomib maintenance phase of a maximum period of 12 months.
The patient population will consist of adult male and female patients with multiple myeloma (MM) with relapsed and/or refractory disease after at least one prior treatment line.
In case of enrollment patients will receive ixazomib 4.0mg at days 1, 8, 15, thalidomide 100mg at days 1 to 28 (50mg in patients aged ≥75 years), and dexamethasone 40mg (20mg in patients aged ≥75 years) at days 1, 8, 15 of a 28-day treatment cycle. The proposed number of cycles is 8. Treatment will be discontinued in case of progressive disease or in case of no response after 4 cycles (≤ SD after 4 cycles). After discontinuation of therapy an end of treatment visit (EOT) will be performed within 14 days after the last dose of the last combination treatment cycle.
After 8 cycles of ITD therapy, maintenance treatment with 4.0mg ixazomib (3.0mg in patients aged ≥ 75 years at first day of maintenance phase) on days 1, 8, 15 of 28-day cycles will be administered to patients with ≥ MR for a maximum period of 12 months. Patients who completed less than 8 cycles of ITD treatment do not qualify for maintenance phase.
Follow-up visits will be performed in 3-monthly intervals until the last patient on ixazomib maintenance therapy has concluded or discontinued the maintenance phase.
A safety analysis will be conducted after enrollment of the first 6 patients and completion of at least two cycles in every patient.

- Are informed and understand the possible consequences of the teratogenic potential of thalidomide
-
Disease free of prior malignancies for ≥ 2 years with exception of curatively treated basal cell, squamous cell carcinoma of the skin, or carcinoma "in situ" of the cervix or breast if they have undergone complete resection.
