| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: Immunotherapy with autologous messenger RNA-electroporated monocyte derived dendritic cells in combination with lenalidomide maintenance will induce significant anti-tumor cellular immune responses in multiple myeloma patients achieving very good partial response or complete response after autologous stem cell transplantation. This will result in an improvement in response quality which will eventually lead to improved progression-free and overall survival.;Secondary Objective: 1.To demonstrate the in-vivo immunogenicity of autologous MAGE-A3 and MAGE-C1 mRNA-electroporated monocyte derived dendritic cell vaccinations in combination with lenalidomide maintenance as evaluated by : -Ex-vivo functional analysis including the demonstration of specific anti-MAGE-A3 and MAGE-C1 T cell immunoreactivity. -In-vivo delayed type hypersensitivity response assessment with MAGE-A3 and MAGE-C1 protein. 2.To determine progression-free survival and overall survival (OS). 3.Assessment of safety and toxicity of lenalidomide maintenance and dendritic cell vaccination.;Primary end point(s): To demonstrate a significant improvement in the response quality after dendritic cell vaccination in combination with lenalidomide maintenance. Improvement in response quality is defined as : -Achieving complete response after dendritic cells vaccination for patients in very good partial response before vaccination. -Achieving a minimal residual disease negative state after dendritic cell vaccination for patients with complete remission having minimal residual disease positive state before vaccination.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Continuously during the conduct of the trial | — |
