Selinexor and Backbone Treatments of Multiple Myeloma Patients

About

Brief Summary

Title: A Phase 1b/2 Study of Selinexor (KPT-330) in Combination with Backbone Treatments for Resistant/Refractory Multiple Myeloma Lay Title: This study will independently assess the efficacy and safety of three combination therapies (with dose escalations in each arm) for the treatment of patients with relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma (RR MM). The combinations are: a) selinexor + dexamethasone + pomalidomide (SdP) b) selinexor + dexamethasone + bortezomib (SdB) c) selinexor + dexamethasone + lenalidomide (SdL)

Selinexor (KPT-330) is a first-in-class, oral, drug that has shown potent anti-myeloma activity in preclinical studies of MM and in an ongoing Phase 1 clinical study. There are two steps in this study, a “dose-escalation phase” and an “expansion phase.” The dose-escalation phase is used to the best dose of these drugs and the best treatment schedule, based on how well the therapies work together and how safe they are when they are given together. The expansion phase will be used to see how well the best dose from the first phase works when given to a larger group of patients.

During screening, the study doctor will do a physical exam. The patient will have a skeletal survey done with x-ray in order to looks for soft tissue growths called plasmocytomas. The patient will have a bone marrow aspirate to see if the cancer has spread to the bone marrow. The patient will have blood samples and urine samples collected for routine test. The patient will have an eye examination, an electrocardiogram, and an echocardiogram.

If the patient qualifies for the study and chooses to participate they will return to the clinic on cycle 1 days 1, 8 and 15. On those days they will have blood collected for routine tests and physical exams done. They will also have blood collected for review of how drug is affecting their body. They may also have additional review of their urine and skeletal survey. On cycle 2, the patients will return on days 1 and 15. On those days they will have physical exams, urine and blood collected. They may also have skeletal survey done again if the doctor feels it is needed. They will also have bone marrow aspirate collected to see disease progression and a bone marrow biopsy may be done to better understand the myeloma. During the phase 1 portion of the study, additional blood samples will be collected to see how the drug is affecting the body. On cycle 3 and on, patients will return on day 1 where the patient will receive a physical exam, they will provide blood samples, urine samples, and bone marrow aspirate. They may also have skeletal survey done again if the doctor feels it is needed.

On the end of treatment visit, the patients will have physical exams, eye exams and will have blood and urine collected for routine tests. They may also have skeletal survey done again if the doctor feels it is needed.

Once off the treatment, patients will be contacted every 3 months and if their MM is not getting worse they will be asked to provide blood and urine samples, a bone marrow aspirate (and optionally a biopsy). If they had plasmocytomas they will be asked to undergo skeletal survey again to look for additional plasmocytomas. There is no maximum treatment limit and the patients may stay on the study drug for the extent of the st
