Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: • Previously untreated patients with a confirmed diagnosis of multiple myeloma according to IMWG criteria (see appendix A); • Measurable disease according to the IMWG criteria; (If plasmacytoma is the only measurable parameter, the patient is not allowed to be included in the study, because of difficult response evaluation) • Patients who are either unfit or frail according to the IMWG criteria; • Age 18 years or older; • Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥ 1.0 x109/l and platelet count ≥ 75x109/l , unless related to bone marrow infiltration by malignant plasma cells; Platelet transfusions and G-CSF to help patients meet eligibility criteria are not allowed; • Written informed consent, including consent for additional bone marrow and blood sampling and a skin biopsy (with the understanding that consent may be withdrawn by the patient at any time without consequences to future medical care); • Patient is capable of giving informed consent; • Negative pregnancy test at study entry (only for women of childbearing potential); • Male patients and female patients of childbearing potential must agree to use adequate contraception from the time of signing the informed consent form through 90 days after the last dose of study drug
Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: • Non-secretory MM; • Plasma cell leukemia; • Systemic Amyloid Light-chain (AL) amyloidosis; • Central nervous system involvement; • Known allergy to any of the study medications, their analogues, or excipients in the various formulations of any agent; • Neuropathy, grade 1 with pain or grade ≥ 2; • Severe cardiac dysfunction (NYHA classification III-IV, appendix D); • Screening 12-lead ECG showing a baseline QT interval as corrected by Fridericia’s formula (QTcF) >470 msec; • Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) with an Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 second (FEV1) 80% unconjugated bilirubin; • Creatinine clearance <20 ml/min or Calculated Glomerular Filtration Rate [ml/min/1.73m2] <20; • Patients with active, uncontrolled infections; • Patients known to be Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV)-positive; • Known GI disease or GI procedure that could interfere with the oral absorption or tolerance of ixazomib including difficulty swallowing; • Active malignancy other than MM requiring treatment or a malignancy that has been treated with chemotherapy currently affecting bone marrow capacity; • Systemic treatment, within 14 days before the first dose of ixazomib, with strong CYP3A inducers (rifampin, rifapentine, rifabutin, carbamazepine, phenytoin, phenobarbital), or use of St. John’s wort; • Pre-treatment with cytostatic drug, immunomodulatory drugs (IMiDs) or proteasome inhibitors. Radiotherapy (provided the involved field is small and there are ≥ 7 days between radiotherapy and administration of ixazomib) or a short course of steroids (e.g. 4 day treatment of dexamethasone 40 mg/day or equivalent) are allowed; • Major surgery within 14 days before enrollment; • Any serious medical or psychiatric illness, or familial, sociological and geographical condition potentially hampering compliance with the study protocol and follow-up schedule; • Participation in other clinical trials, including those with other investigational agents not included in this trial, within 30 days of the start of this trial and throughout the duration of this trial; • Female patients who are lactating.
