Registry last update
2019-10-08

The purpose of this study is to evaluate an investigational drug called tabalumab in participants with Multiple Myeloma (MM) who have tried at least one other therapy in the past. Tabalumab will be given in combination with standard doses of two other drugs that are often used to treat MM. Study doctors will collect information about the effectiveness and side effects of this therapy.

primary Outcomes
  1. description
    PFS is defined as the time from date of first dose to the first observation of disease progression or death due to any cause. If a participant does not have a complete baseline disease assessment, then the PFS time is censored at the enrollment date, regardless of whether or not objectively determined disease progression (Increase of \> 25% from lowest response in serum M component, urine M component, bone marrow plasma cell percentage, development of bone lesions) or death has been observed for the participant. If a participant is not known to have died or have objective progression as of the data inclusion cutoff date for the analysis, the PFS time is censored at the last complete objective progression-free disease assessment date.
    measure
    Progression Free Survival (PFS)
    time Frame
    Baseline up to Objective Disease Progression or Death From Any Cause (assessed up to 9 months)
secondary Outcomes
  1. description
    Overall survival is the duration from enrollment to death from any cause. For participants who were alive, overall survival was censored at the last contact.

  2. description
    Time to first SRE is defined as time from randomization to any one of the following related to multiple myeloma: New Pathological Fracture, Spinal Cord Compression, Surgery to the Bone, Radiation to the Bone collected until participant death, study closure or lost to follow up. Participants not known to have had an SRE at the time of the analysis were censored at the date of their last complete documented assessment for SRE.

  4. description
    Time to progression is defined as the time from the date of randomization to the date of first observed objective progression or death due to study disease. Time to progression will be censored as for PFS for those participants not known to have progressed or that died from other causes.

  5. description
    DOR is measured by the International Myeloma Working Group Uniform Response Criteria: from the date of first evidence of a confirmed response to the date of objective progression or the date of death due to any cause, whichever is earlier. If a responder is not known to have died or have objective progression as of the data inclusion cutoff date, the DOR time will be censored at the last complete objective progression-free disease assessment date. Progressive disease is an increase of 25% from baseline in Serum M, Urine M, bone marrow plasma cell increase of 10 %, development of new bone lesions, development of new soft tissue plasmacytomas or bone lesions, hypercalcemia \>11.5 milligrams per deciliter, decrease in hemoglobin of 2 grams per deciliter, rise in serum creatinine by 2 mg/deciliter.
