This is a phase II study, open-label, single institution trial of pomalidomide in GEP-defined, high-risk relapsing/refractory multiple myeloma. Prior therapy must have included lenalidomide. Patient accrual is 30 over a 2 year period. Primary objective: * To determine progression-free survival (PFS) after initiation of pomalidomide therapy Secondary objective: * To determine the response rate (CR, n-CR, VGPR) and duration of response after pomalidomide therapy. * To determine gene expression profiling (GEP) changes exerted within 48 hours of initiation of daily pomalidomide dosing. * To determine gene expression profiling (GEP) changes exerted within 48 hours of initiation 3 concurrent days of exposure to lenalidomide. * To determine MRI- and PET-CT-defined CR in studies obtained at baseline and every 6 month examinations.

Exclusion Criteria: * Any serious medical condition, laboratory abnormality, or psychiatric illness that would prevent the subject from signing the informed consent form. * Pregnant or breast feeding females. * Men unwilling to use a condom (even if they have undergone a prior vasectomy) while having intercourse with any woman, while taking the drug and for 4 weeks after stopping treatment. * Any condition, including the presence of laboratory abnormalities, which places the subject at unacceptable risk if he/she were to participate in the study or confounds the ability to interpret data from the study. * Use of any other experimental drug or therapy within 28 days of baseline. * Known hypersensitivity to lenalidomide. * The development of erythema nodosum if characterized by a desquamating rash while taking lenalidomide, CC-4047 or similar drugs. * Any prior use of CC-4047. * Concurrent use of other anti-cancer agents or treatments. * Known seropositive for or active viral infection with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), hepatitis B virus (HBV) or hepatitis C virus (HCV). Patients who are seropositive because of hepatitis B virus vaccine are eligible. * Active malignancy (exception of non melanoma skin cancer or in situ cervical or breast cancer). * Active DVT or PE that has not been therapeutically anticoagulated. * ≥ grade 3 peripheral neuropathy.

  1. description
    Progression -free survival (PFS) after initiation of pomalidomide therapy. Progressive disease is defined as increase of \> 25% from lowest response value in any one or more of the following: Serum M-component and/or (the absolute increase must be \> 0.5 g/dL); Urine M-component and/or (the absolute increase must be \> 200 mg/24 h); Only in patients without measurable serum and urine M-protein levels; the difference between involved and uninvolved FLC levels. The absolute increase must be \> 10 mg/dL; Bone marrow plasma cell percentage; the absolute percentage must be \> 10%; Definite development of new bone lesions or soft tissue plasmacytomas or definite increase in the size of existing bone lesions or soft tissue plasmacytomas; Development of hypercalcaemia (corrected serum calcium \> 11.5 mg/dL or 2.65 mmol/L) that can be attributed solely to the plasma cell proliferative disorder.

detailed Description
Pomalidomide is a 2nd generation immunomodulatory agent (IMiD®) with greater efficacy than lenalidomide and with a similar toxicity spectrum. Phase I trials have shown that pomalidomide 1 to 5 mg is well-tolerated1,2. TT3 has been remarkably successful in the management of newly diagnosed MM, inducing CR rates of \>60% and 4-year estimates of overall and event-free survival of 85% and 75%. Of those achieving CR, estimated 4-year CR rate is 85%. TT3 maintenance has been with either VTD in 2003-33 or VRD in 2006-66, so that pomalidomide's role in overcoming refractoriness to lenalidomide can be assessed. Pharmacogenomic investigations comparing GEP data obtained at baseline and 48hr post-treatment have been performed in case of thalidomide, dexamethasone, lenalidomide, bortezomib and melphalan3. Thus, as most patients on TT3 had baseline and 48-hr GEP investigations performed after bortezomib, the opportunity exists to investigate, at the time of relapse, not only a re-challenge with bortezomib with 48hr GEP but also pomalidomide's effect. This is a phase II study, open-label, single institution trial of pomalidomide in GEP-defined, high-risk relapsing/refractory multiple myeloma. Prior therapy must have included lenalidomide.
