Relapsed or Refractory Multiple Myeloma
Conditions
Brief summary
The primary objective was to describe the safety profile of carfilzomib plus dexamethasone regimen in adults with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM) with 1 to 3 prior lines of therapy at study entry.
Detailed description
This is a phase 2, multicenter, open-label study in adults with RRMM in US community oncology centers. Adults with 1-3 prior lines of therapy at study entry are eligible to be screened for participation. Patients refractory to their last line of treatment are eligible to participate as long as their last line of treatment did not include a proteasome inhibitor (PI). The study will consist of a screening period of up to 28 days for bone marrow assessments and up to 21 days for all other assessments, up to 12 cycles of treatment, and a 30-day safety follow-up period following the last dose of study drug.
Interventions
DRUGDexamethasone
Dexamethasone will be taken orally or by IV infusion at a dose of 20 mg once-daily on days 1, 2, 8, 9, 15, 16, 22, and 23 of cycles 1-6, and at a dose 40 mg once-daily on days 1, 8, 15 of cycles 7-12.
DRUGCarfilzomib
Carfilzomib will be administered at 20 mg/m² on days 1 and 2 of the first cycle. After that, carfilzomib will be administered at 56 mg/m² on days 8, 9, 15, and 16 of the first cycle, and then on days 1, 2, 8, 9, 15, and 16 on each 28-day cycle for the cycles 2 through 6. Starting with cycle 7 through cycle 12, carfilzomib will be administered at 70 mg/m² on days 1, 8, and 15 of each 28-day cycle. All

Change From Baseline in Average EORTC QLQ-C30 Scores During Cycles 2 to 6 in Participants Who Completed 12 Cycles of Treatment
EORTC QLQ-C30 was administered on day 1 of each treatment cycle. EORTC QLQ-C30 is a 30-item questionnaire used to assess the overall quality of life in cancer patients. It consists of 15 domains: 1 global health status (GHS) scale, 5 functional scales (Physical, Role, Cognitive, Emotional, Social), and 9 symptom scales/items (Fatigue, Nausea and Vomiting, Pain, Dyspnea, Insomnia, Appetite Loss, Constipation, Diarrhea, Financial Impact). For each of these scales, scores range from 0 to 100. For the GHS and 5 functional scales a high score indicates better global health status/functioning and a positive change from baseline indicates improvement. For the 9 symptom scales, a high score indicates a higher level of symptoms, and a negative change from Baseline indicates an improvement in symptoms. Change from baseline is the difference in the average score from cycles 2 to 6 and the score on cycle 1 day 1.

Change From Baseline in Average EORTC QLQ-MY20 Scores During Cycles 2 to 6 in Participants Who Completed 12 Cycles of Treatment
EORTC QLQ-MY20 is a 20-item questionnaire used in clinical research to assess health-related quality of life in multiple myeloma patients. Questions are answered on a 4-point scale from 1 'Not at All' to 4 'Very Much'. The QLQ-MY20 includes four domains (Disease Symptoms, Side-effects of Treatment, Body Image and Future Perspective). Domain scores are calculated as averages and transformed to range from 0 to 100. For the disease symptoms and side-effects of treatment scales a higher score represents a higher level of symptoms/problems and a negative change from baseline value indicates reduction (i.e. improvement) in symptoms. For the body image and future perspectives scales a higher score represents a higher level of functioning, and a positive change from baseline indicates improvement. Change from baseline is the difference in the average score from cycles 2 to 6 and the score on cycle 1 day 1.

Change From Baseline to Last Cycle of Treatment in European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality-of-life Questionnaire (EORTC QLQ)-Core 30 (C30)
The European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire-C30 (EORTC QLQ-C30) is a 30-item questionnaire used to assess the overall quality of life in cancer patients. EORTC QLQ-C30 was administered on day 1 of each treatment cycle. It consists of 15 domains: 1 global health status (GHS) scale, 5 functional scales (Physical, Role, Cognitive, Emotional, Social), and 9 symptom scales/items (Fatigue, Nausea and Vomiting, Pain, Dyspnea, Insomnia, Appetite Loss, Constipation, Diarrhea, Financial Impact). For each of these scales, scores range from 0 to 100. For the GHS and 5 functional scales a high score indicates better global health status/functioning and a positive change from baseline indicates improvement. For the 9 symptom scales, a high score indicates a higher level of symptoms, and a negative change from Baseline indicates an improvement in symptoms.

Overall Response Rate (ORR)
Disease response and progression were determined using International Myeloma Working Group Uniform Response Criteria (IMWG-URC) 2016, assessed by the Investigator. Per IMWG, determination of disease response requires: serum free light chain (SFLC), serum and urine protein electrophoresis (SPEP, UPEP, respectively), serum and urine immunofixation (SIFE, UIFE, respectively), bone marrow aspirate (for complete response confirmation), corrected calcium (cCa), and plasmacytoma evaluation, if present at screening. Best overall response is defined as a participant's best response during the study. Overall response rate is defined as the percentage of participants achieving a best overall response of stringent complete response (sCR), complete response (CR), very good partial response (VGPR), or partial response (PR).
