Study Description

Brief Summary

This phase III trial compares the effect of adding a stem cell transplant with melphalan after completing chemotherapy with daratumumab, cyclophosphamide, bortezomib and dexamethasone (Dara-VCD) versus chemotherapy with Dara-VCD alone for treating patients with newly diagnosed amyloid light chain (AL) amyloidosis. Melphalan is a chemotherapy given prior to a stem cell transplant. Giving chemotherapy before a peripheral blood stem cell transplant helps kill cancer cells in the body and helps make room in the patient's bone marrow for new blood-forming cells (stem cells) to grow. The stem cells are then returned to the patients to replace the blood forming cells that were destroyed by the chemotherapy. Daratumumab is in a class of medications called monoclonal antibodies. It binds to a protein called CD38, which is found on some types of immune cells and cancer cells, including myeloma cells. Daratumumab may block CD38 and help the immune system kill cancer cells. Chemotherapy drugs, such as cyclophosphamide and bortezomib, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Dexamethasone is in a class of medications called corticosteroids. It is used to lower the body's immune response to help stop the growth of cancer cells. Giving a stem cell transplant with melphalan after Dara-VCD may kill more cancer cells in patients with newly diagnosed AL amyloidosis.

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Major organ deterioration progression-free survival (PFS) [From date of randomization (Step 2 registration) to date of first documentation of hematologic progression, cardiac organ progression, renal organ progression, or death due to any cause, assessed up to 4 years]

      Will be performed using a stratified log-rank test for comparison between study arms. The analyses will be stratified according to Mayo 2012 Prognostic Staging System for Light Chain Amyloidosis (Stage 1 versus [vs.] 2-3), hematological response following 2 cycles of daratumumab, cyclophosphamide, bortezomib and dexamethasone (Dara-VCD) induction (partial response [PR] or worse vs. very good partial response [VGPR] or better), and presence of t(11;14) by interphase fluorescence in situ hybridization [iFISH] (yes vs. no). All eligible participants will be considered in analyses of the primary endpoint, according to their assigned arm at randomization.

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. Overall survival [From randomization to date of death due to any cause, assessed up to 4 years]

    8. Rate of very good complete response or better [Up to 4 years]

      Will be evaluated with a Cochran-Mantel-Haenszel test accounting for stratification according to Prognostic Staging System for Light Chain Amyloidosis (Stage 1 vs. 2-3), hematological response following 2 cycles of Dara-VCD induction (PR or worse vs. VGPR or better), and presence of t(11;14) by iFISH (yes vs. no).

    9. Time to next treatment [From date of initial registration (Step 1) to date of initiation of next line of therapy, assessed up to 4 years]

      Will be analyzed using the cumulative incidence competing risks method.

    10. Change in patient reported health quality of life (QOL) [From baseline to post-maintenance, approximately 24 months]

      Will use the PROMIS-29+2 (version 2.1) to compare the physical function between participants in the ASCT vs. non-ASCT arm.

    11. Incidence of adverse events [Up to the end of maintenance therapy, approximately 24 months]

      Participant-reported toxicity will be examined using Patient Reported Outcome-Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events.

    Other Outcome Measures

    1. Bone marrow Next Generation Flow based MRD negativity rates [At the end of consolidation, approximately 6 months]

      Comparisons of MRD negativity rates between arms will be made using a stratified Cochran-Mantel-Haenszel test, with analyses stratified according to European modification of the Mayo Prognostic Staging System for Light Chain Amyloidosis (Stage 1 vs. 2-3a), hematological response following 2 cycles of Dara-VCD induction (PR or worse vs. VGPR or better), and presence of t(11;14) by iFISH (yes vs. no).

    2. Change in physical function as assessed by the Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS)-29+2 physical function domain [From baseline to post-consolidation, approximately 6 months]

      Analysis will be conducted using multiple linear regression analysis, adjusting for the clinical study-specified stratification factors (which are also anticipated to influence QOL endpoints), and the baseline score as covariates.

    3. Change in PROMIS-29 fatigue domain score [From baseline to post-consolidation, approximately 6 months]

      Analysis will be conducted using linear regression, adjusting for the clinical study-specified stratification factors and the baseline PROMIS-29 fatigue domain score as covariates. Additionally, will conduct longitudinal modeling of the physical function domain score over time (through 12 months from registration Step 3). For longitudinal modeling, linear mixed models will be used.
