Belantamab Mafodotin, Lenalidomide, and Daratumumab for the Treatment of Relapsed, Refractory, or Previously Untreated Multiple Myeloma
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
This phase I/II trial studies the best dose and effect of belantamab mafodotin given together with lenalidomide and daratumumab in treating patients with multiple myeloma that has come back (relapsed), does not respond to treatment (refractory) or for which the patient has not received treatment in the past (previously untreated). Belantamab mafodotin is a monoclonal antibody, called belantamab, linked to a chemotherapy drug, called mafodotin. Belantamab is a form of targeted therapy because it attaches to specific molecules (receptors) on the surface of cancer cells, known as BCMA receptors, and delivers mafodotin to kill them. Lenalidomide is an immunomodulatory drug (altering the immune effects on the tumor cell). Daratumumab is a drug that is a monoclonal antibody that is directed towards a protein on the myeloma cell. Giving belantamab mafodotin together with lenalidomide and daratumumab may kill more cancer cells.

OUTLINE: This is a phase I dose-escalation study of belantamab mafodotin, followed by a phase II study.
PHASE I:
INDUCTION: Patients receive belantamab mafodotin intravenously (IV) over 30 minutes on day 1, lenalidomide orally (PO) once daily (QD) on days 1-21, and daratumumab IV over 90 minutes on days 1, 8, 15, and 22 of cycles 1 and 2, days 1 and 15 of cycles 3-6, and day 1 of subsequent cycles. Treatment with belantamab mafodotin repeats every 56 days for up to 12 cycles in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Treatment with lenalidomide and daratumumab repeats every 28 days for up to 12 cycles in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
MAINTENANCE: Beginning cycle 13, patients receive belantamab mafodotin IV over 30 minutes on day 1 of odd number cycles, lenalidomide PO QD on days 1-21, and daratumumab IV over 90 minutes on day 1. Treatment with belantamab mafodotin repeats every 56 days, and every 28 days for lenalidomide and daratumumab in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Treatment with belantamab mafodotin repeats every 56 days (every other cycle) for up to 24 cycles in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Treatment with lenalidomide and daratumumab repeats every 28 days for up to 24 cycles in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of belantamab in combination with daratumumab and lenalidomide in patients with relapsed and/or refractory multiple myeloma (Phase I) [Up to 28 days]
The MTD will be determined by the dose limiting toxicities (DLTs) seen in cycle 1 of the therapy in the phase I portion. The phase II portion will be based on the determined MTD. MTD is defined as the dose level below the lowest dose that induces dose limiting toxicity in at least one-third of patients (at least 2 of a maximum of 6 new patients).
- Complete response rate with belantamab, daratumumab, and lenalidomide, OR alternating cycles of daratumumab, lenalidomide, dexamethasone and belantamab, lenalidomide and dexamethasone, when used as initial therapy (Phase II) [Up to 336 days (induction therapy cycles 1-12/each cycle 28 days)]
A confirmed response is defined as a patient who has achieved a stringent complete response (sCR) or CR (as defined by the International Myeloma Working Group criteria) and maintained it on two consecutive evaluations at least 2 weeks apart.
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Incidence of toxicity (Phase I) [Up to 3 years]
Defined as adverse events that are classified as either possibly, probably, or definitely related to study treatment. Non-hematologic toxicities will be evaluated via the ordinal Common Terminology Criteria (CTC) standard toxicity grading. Hematologic toxicity measures of thrombocytopenia, neutropenia, and leukopenia will be assessed using continuous variables as the outcome measures (primarily nadir) as well as categorization via CTC standard toxicity grading. Overall toxicity incidence as well as toxicity profiles by dose level, patient and tumor site will be explored and summarized. Frequency distributions, graphical techniques and other descriptive measures will form the basis of these analyses.
- Overall response rate [Up to 3 years]
Will be estimated by the number of patients with each response category (e.g: sCR, CR, VGPR, partial response [PR], etc) divided by the total number of evaluable patients.
- Greater than or equal to very good partial response (VGPR) rate [Up to 3 years]
Will be estimated by the number of patients with each response category (e.g: sCR, CR, VGPR, PR, etc) divided by the total number of evaluable patients.
- Overall survival [From registration to death due to any cause, assessed up to 3 years]
Will be estimated using the method of Kaplan-Meier.
- Progression-free survival [From registration to the earliest date of documentation of disease progression or relapse or death due to any cause, assessed up to 3 years]
Will be estimated using the method of Kaplan-Meier.
- Time to response [Time between the date of first dose and the first documented evidence of a partial response or better, assessed up to 3 years]
Descriptive statistics will be estimated.
- Incidence of adverse events [Up to 30 days post treatment]
The maximum grade for each type of adverse event will be recorded for each patient, and frequency tables will be reviewed to determine patterns. Additionally, the relationship of the adverse event(s) to the study treatment will be taken into consideration.
