Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The study will evaluate the effects of BHQ880 in patients with previously untreated multiple myeloma and renal insufficiency who are not considered candidates for bisphosphonate therapy. The primary objective of the study will be to evaluate the effect of BHQ880 in combination with bortezomib and dexamethasone, compared to placebo administered with the combination on the time to first Skeletal Related Event (SRE) on study.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. effect of BHQ880 compared with placebo on time to first Skeletal Related Event (SRE) in patients with untreated multiple myeloma and renal insufficiency in combination with bortezomib and dexamethasone [18-month median time to first SRE assumed for the placebo arm]

    Time to first SRE from randomization

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. safety and tolerability of BHQ880 in combination with bortezomib and dexamethasone [From screening through month 17]

    Number of patients with adverse events/serious adverse events, abnormal clinical laboratory values, and the assessment of immunogenicity

  2. Characterize the PharmacoKinetics (PK) profiles of BHQ880 and bortezomib [At screening and weeks 1, 2, 4, 7, 10, 11, 13, 16, 25 and 34]

    Determine the pharmacokinetic parameters for BHQ880 and bortezomib (Cmax, Tmax, AUC0-tlast, t1/2, and accumulation ratio of BHQ880).

  3. Evaluate the effect of BHQ880 on bone metabolism [At screening and at months 3, 6, 12, and 18]

    1) Change in bone mineral density, measured by dual-emission X-ray absorptiometry (DXA), from randomization to 12 and 18 months; 2) Change in bone strength, measured by quantitative computed tomography (qCT), from randomization to 3 and 6 months

  4. Determine the antimyeloma effect of BHQ880 compared to placebo when used in combination with bortezomib and dexamethasone. [From the first dose of study medication through month 17]

    1) The overall response rate (partial response plus complete response); 2) Progression-free survival following initiation of BHQ880
