Eligibility

Who can join

The film gives the main points. The full list below is copied from the registry; the study team makes the final decision.

  • Age18 Years to no maximum
  • SexAll
  • Healthy volunteersNo

You may be able to join if

  • Male or female subject aged ≥ 18 years.
  • Histologically confirmed myeloma and/or Plasma Cell Leukemia who are newly diagnosed and having completed ≤ 1 prior cycle of myeloma treatment.
  • For female subjects of childbearing potential: Negative pregnancy test or evidence of post-menopausal status or evidence of permanent surgical sterilization (bilateral oophorectomy or hysterectomy). The post-menopausal status will be defined as having been amenorrheic for 24 months without an alternative medical cause.
  • Subjects must be willing to follow contraception requirements listed in the protocol, agree to participate in the Lenalidomide REMS program, and have signed the Patient-Physician Agreement Form.
  • Male subjects must agree to use a latex condom during intercourse for the duration of study therapy as described in the protocol, even if he has undergone a successful vasectomy.
  • Recovery to baseline or ≤ Grade 1 CTCAE v5 from toxicities related to any prior treatments, unless AE(s) are clinically nonsignificant and/or stable on supportive therapy per the treating investigator.
  • Able to provide informed consent and willing to sign an approved consent form that conforms to federal and institutional guidelines.
  • IMWG defined frailty score ≥ 3. IMWG definition available here: http://www.myelomafrailtyscorecalculator.net

You cannot join if

  • Receiving other investigational agents.
  • Any condition that would, in the Investigator's judgment, compromise the subject's ability to understand the subject information, give informed consent, and/or contraindicate the subject's participation in the clinical study due to safety concerns or compliance with clinical study procedures (e.g., infection/inflammation, intestinal obstruction, unable to swallow medication, [subjects may not receive the drug through a feeding tube], social/ psychological issues, etc.)
  • Known prior severe hypersensitivity (NCI CTCAE v5.0 Grade ≥ 3) to investigational product (IP) or any component in its formulations. This includes hypersensitivity or history of intolerance to steroids, mannitol, pregelatinized starch, sodium stearyl fumarate, histidine (as base and hydrochloride salt), arginine hydrochloride, poloxamer 188, sucrose or any of the other components of study intervention that are not amenable to premedication with steroids and H2 blockers or would prohibit further treatment with these agents.
  • Subjects currently taking prohibited medications as described in the protocol.

The treatment

How it is intended to work

This is how the treatment is meant to work. Whether it helps, and how safe it is, is what this trial is testing.

isatuximab-irfc. A humanized IgG1 monoclonal antibody directed against the cell surface glycoprotein CD-38 with potential antineoplastic activity. Isatuximab-irfc specifically binds to CD38 on CD38-positive tumor cells. This may trigger antitumoral antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC), complement-dependent cytotoxicity (CDC) and apoptosis eventually leading to cell lysis in CD38-expressing tumor cells. CD38, a type II transmembrane glycoprotein, is present on various immune cells and hematologic malignancies, and its expression has been correlated with poor prognosis. NCI Drug Dictionary

lenalidomide. A thalidomide analog with potential antineoplastic activity. Lenalidomide inhibits TNF-alpha production, stimulates T cells, reduces serum levels of the cytokines vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF), and inhibits angiogenesis. This agent also promotes G1 cell cycle arrest and apoptosis of malignant cells. NCI Drug Dictionary

Treatments listed in the registry

  • Isatuximab (Drug): Subcutaneous isatuximab will be administered weekly on a 28-day cycle during the first two cycles, and every two weeks of a 28-day cycle thereafter. Dexamethasone will be administered on the days of isatuximab administration and can be discontinued after two cycles of therapy, or continued at discretion of investigator. Lenalidomide, will be added after two cycles of therapy have been completed.
