Inclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: Age = 18 years Newly diagnosed MM based on standard CRAB criteria (see appendix B). Patient 50%) Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) = 1 x 109/L without the use of growth factors Corrected serum calcium =14 mg/dL (3.5 mmol/L) Alanine transaminase (ALT): = 3 x the ULN Total bilirubin: = 2 x the ULN Calculated or measured creatinine clearance: = 30 mL/minute. LVEF=40%. 2-D transthoracic echocardiogram (ECHO) is the preferred method of evaluation.

Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: Previous treatment with anti-myeloma therapy (does not include radiotherapy, bisphosphonates, or a single short course of steroid 2 cm Patients ineligible for autologous transplantation Pregnant or lactating females Presence of: Clinical active infectious hepatitis type A, B, C or HIV Acute active infection requiring antibiotics or infiltrative pulmonary disease Myocardial infarction or unstable angina = 4 months or other clinically significant heart disease Peripheral neuropathy or neuropathic pain grade 2 or higher, as defined by National Cancer Institute Common Toxicity Criteria (NCI CTC) 4.0 (Appendix A) Known history of allergy to Captisol ® (a cyclodextrin derivative used to solubilize carfilzomib) Contraindication to any of the required drugs or supportive treatments Invasive malignancy within the past 3 years Serious medical condition, laboratory abnormality or psychiatric illness that prevented the subject from the enrolment or place the subject at unacceptable risk.
Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: To determine the efficacy, in term of at least very good partial response (VGPR), of the combination of Carfilzomib and dexamethasone with cyclophosphamide or lenalidomide after 4 cycles of induction treatment in newly diagnosed MM patients eligible for autologous transplantation. (ASCT) ;Secondary Objective: To determine the stringent complete response (sCR) rate in the 3 arms after complete primary therapy (induction, ASCT and consolidation for the transplant arms and after 12 cycles in the long treatment arm) in an explorative manner. To determine the safety in the 3 induction/consolidation arms and in the 2 maintenance arms. To determine the survival in the 3 induction/consolidation arms and in the 2 maintenance arms. To determine whether tumor response and outcome may change in subgroups with different baseline prognostic factors To determine the Minimal Residual Disease (MRD) To determine the survival after relapse ;Primary end point(s): All patients will be included in the Intent-to-Treat (ITT) analysis. Efficacy will be assessed by considering VGPR at cycle 4 in the 3 arms. Assessment of VGPR rate will be performed according to the criteria of the International Myeloma Working Group. ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Efficacy will be assessed by considering VGPR at cycle 4 in the 3 arms | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Secondary end point(s): • Determine the rate of sCR in the 3 arms after complete primary therapy (induction, ASCT, consolidation) in an explorative manner • Determine the rate of adverse events in the 3 induction/consolidation arms and in the 2 maintenance arms. • Determine the progression-free survival at 2 years (2ys-PFS) • Determine the time to progression (TTP) • Determine the duration of response (DOR) • Determine the overall survival (OS) • Determine the time to next therapy (TNT) • Determine the Progression Free Survival-2 defined as the time from initial randomization (to first line therapy) until to second objective disease progression on next line treatment, or death from any cause • Determine the Minimal Residual Disease (MRD) measurement;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: see below E.5.2 | — |
