Conditions

Participants whose CNS involvement was treated with resolved symptoms, provided that local treatment was > 4 weeks before enrollment, are eligible. 9. Participants with active neurological auto immune or inflammatory disorders (e.g., Guillain-Barre Syndrome, Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis). 10. Participants with Grade = 3 neuropathy, or residual non-hematologic effects of Grade = 2 from previous therapy (excluding alopecia). 11. Chemotherapy, small molecule targeted antineoplastics, or any concomitant anti-cancer therapies (other than protocol allowed LD chemotherapy) within 2 weeks prior to apheresis or prior to PHE885 injection. 12. For participants that received prior antibodies (e.g., daratumumab, isotuximab, elotuzumab) the washout period is 3 weeks prior to apheresis collection. 13. Radiotherapy within 2 weeks prior to enrollment except localized radiation therapy for lytic bone lesions or plasmacytomas. 14. Investigational medicinal product within the 4 weeks prior to screening or within 5-half-lives of the investigational product, whichever is longer. Note: Investigational therapies must not be used at any time while on study until the first progression following PHE885 injection. 15. Participants receiving systemic steroid therapy or other immunosuppressive drugs unless the conditions outlined in the protocol are met. 16.

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: Evaluate the efficacy of PHE885 with respect to disease response per independent review committee (IRC) in participants injected with PHE885 ;Secondary Objective: • Assess additional efficacy outcomes including complete response rate (CRR), time to response (TTR), duration of response (DOR), progression-free survival (PFS) per IRC and local investigator assessment • Assess time to next treatment (TTNT) and overall survival (OS) • Evaluate rate of minimal residual disease (MRD) negativity in bone marrow measured by next-generation sequencing (NGS) • Assess durability of MRD negativity • Assess patient reported outcomes (PRO) • Assess the PHE885 manufacturing success rate • Assess manufacturing turnaround time • Assess safety of PHE885 • Assess the cellular kinetics of PHE885 in peripheral blood and bone marrow by qPCR • Assess immunogenicity (humoral and cellular) to PHE885 ;Primary end point(s): Best overall response (BOR) per IRC defined as the best disease response recorded from PHE885 administration until progressive disease or start of new anticancer therapy whichever comes first, with possible values of either stringent complete response (sCR), complete response (CR), very good partial response (VGPR), partial response (PR), minimal response (MR), stable disease (SD), progressive disease (PD) or unknown (UNK), according to the International Myeloma Working Group (IMWG) criteria. The summary measure for the primary endpoint is overall response rate (ORR), defined as the proportion of participants with a BOR of PR or better, assessed in the efficacy analysis set (EAS). ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Efficacy interim analysis (6 months after the first 75 pts), Primary analysis (6 months after 100 pts) and Final CSR (24 months after all 100 pts)

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary end point(s): • CRR defined as the proportion of participants with BOR of sCR or CR • TTR defined as time from PHE885 administration to the date of first documented response (PR or better) • DOR defined as time from first documented response (PR or better) until relapse or death due to any cause • PFS defined as time from PHE885 administration until progression or death due to any cause • TTNT defined as time from PHE885 administration until start of new anti-myeloma therapy or death due to any cause • OS defined as time from PHE885 administration until death due to any cause • Proportion of participants who attain MRD negative status, defined at sensitivity level of 1 in 10^5 nucleated cells by NGS • Duration from the start of undetectable MRD to the time of reappearance of detectable MRD • Summary scores of PRO measured by EQ-5D-5L, EORTC-QLQ-C30 and EORTC-QLQ-MY20 • Proportion of enrolled participants for whom a PHE885 product was manufactured that met all release specifications • Time from pick up of cryopreserved material at the clinic or hospital until return to the clinic or hospital. • Type, frequency, and severity of adverse events, serious adverse events, adverse events of special interest (AESIs) and laboratory abnormalities • Transgene of PHE885 concentrations over time in peripheral blood and bone marrow determined by quantitative PCR Cellular kinetics parameters: Cmax (maximum serum concentration), Tmax (time to reach Cmax), AUCs and other cellular kinetic parameters • Summary of pre-existing and treatment-induced immunogenicity (cellular and humoral) of PHE885 Correlate levels of pre-existing and treatment-induced immunogenicity with cellular kinetic parameters, safety and efficacy ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Efficacy interim analysis (6 months after the first 75 pts), Primary analysis (6 months after 100 pts) and Final CSR (24 months after all 100 pts)
