- Registration Number
- NCT02969837
- Lead Sponsor
- University of Chicago
- Brief Summary
This study was a multi-center, open-label, single-arm, Phase 2 study where newly diagnosed Multiple Myeloma requiring systemic chemotherapy will be eligible for enrollment. A total of 46 subjects were enrolled. The primary end point was the rate of stringent complete response (sCR) and/or MRD-negativity (10-5) after C8 Elo-KRd. Secondary end points included safety, rate of response, MRD status, PFS, and overall survival (OS).
- Detailed Description
Primary Objective
• The primary efficacy endpoint will be the rate of sCR and/or the rate of negative MRD by next generation gene sequencing (NGS) by clonoSIGHT (Adaptive Biotechnologies) at the end of 8 cycles among non-transplant candidates and transplant candidates who agreed to defer transplant
Secondary Objectives
* To evaluate the safety and tolerability of elotuzumab in combination with KRd, when administered to subjects with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma.
* To determine the rate of MRD by next generation gene sequencing (NGS) by clonoSIGHT (Adaptive Biotechnologies) and by multi-color flow cytometry (MFC) at the end of Cycle 4, 8,and 12 for all subjects, and end of C18 (for subjects who are MRD+ at the end of C8 but MRD- at the end of C12 only), 24 months after C1D1, and yearly after that.
* To estimate time to event, including duration of response (DOR), progression-free survival (PFS), time to progression (TTP), and overall survival (OS).
Exploratory Objectives
* GEP, proteomics, and gene sequencing to evaluate the correlation between treatment outcome and pre-treatment subject profile.
* Immunologic correlative studies including FcγRIIIa V genotype.

Group Intervention Description Elo-KRd regimen Elotuzumab Subjects will be tested for Minimal Residual Disease (MRD) by Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) and flow cytometry after cycles 8 and 12. A treatment decision was made after cycle 12 based on these results. There are three outcomes based on the IFM trial (Avet-Loiseau et al., 2015): 1) if the subject is MRD-negative by NGS after cycle 8 and 12, the subject went on E-Rd maintenance until disease progression. 2) If the subject is MRD-positive after cycle 8 but MRD-negative after cycle 12, 6 more cycles of E-KRd was given and at the end of 18 cycles, the subject went on E-Rd maintenance until disease progression. 3) Finally, if the subject is MRD-positive at both instances, 12 additional cycles of E-KRd was given and at the end of 24 cycles total, the subject went on E-Rd maintenance until disease progression.

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Number of Participants With Stringent Complete Response (sCR) Landmark evaluations were performed after cycles 4, 8, 12, 18 and 24 (that is, 4, 8, 12, 18 and 24 months) Response will be determined according to the International Myeloma Working Group (IMWG) response criteria for multiple myeloma.
sCR is defined as CR plus :
* normal FLC ratio and
* absence of clonal cells in bone marrow by immunohistochemistry or 2 - 4 color flow cytometry
CR is defined as below :
* Negative immunofixation on the serum and urine and
* disappearance of any soft tissue plasmacytomas and
* \< 5% plasma cells in bone marrow.
* In subjects with only FLC disease, a normal FLC ratio of 0.26-1.65 is required.Number of Participants With MRD-negativity (10^-5) After C8 Elo-KRd Landmark evaluations were performed after cycle 8 Subjects will be tested for Minimal Residual Disease (MRD) by Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) and flow cytometry after cycle 8.
The flow cytometry analysis procedure used to determine MRD is performed on a NAVIOS FLOW CYTOMETER SYSTEM manufactured by BECKMAN COULTER, INC., using a laboratory developed assay.

- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Number of Participants With Adverse Events of Elotuzumab in Combination With KRd AEs were recorded from the day of signed consent through 30 days after the last does of Elo-KRd or initiation of new therapy, an average of 2 years. AEs were graded according to the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (version 4.0)
Duration of Response Up to two years These events will be analyzed at differing points of time based on the individual subjects disease progression. It will be measured by the number of cycles of therapy.
Median Progression Free Survival up to two years Progression free survival (PFS) was assessed based on time to disease progression or death (whichever occurred first) from the start of treatment.
Median Overall Survival up to two years Overall survival (OS) was assessed based on time to disease progression or death (whichever occurred first) from the start of treatment.
