Trial Summary

What is the purpose of this trial?

This a Phase I/II randomized trial for patients with relapsed refractory Multiple Myeloma who have relapsed after treatment with prior therapies. The protocol is designed to evaluate two agents, Anti-LAG-3 and Anti-TIGIT, in order to understand their immunologic effects and safety both as single agents and in combination with pomalidomide and dexamethasone. In these arms, patients will be treated with either Anti-LAG-3 or Anti-TIGIT respectively for one cycle as single agent followed by the addition of pomalidomide and dexamethasone in combination for subsequent cycles. A third arm allows patients to be treated with the FDA approved combination of elotuzumab plus pomalidomide and dexamethsone as a control. This arm will thus allow a concurrent standard of care comparator for the experimental arms.

Eligibility Criteria

Adults with relapsed refractory Multiple Myeloma who've had at least three prior treatments, including IMiDs, proteasome inhibitors, and anti-CD38 monoclonal antibodies. Participants must have normal or stable thyroid function, acceptable blood counts and organ function, no history of certain autoimmune diseases or CNS involvement, not be pregnant or breastfeeding, and agree to contraception use.

Treatment Details

Interventions

  • Anti-LAG-3 (Monoclonal Antibodies)
  • Anti-TIGIT (Monoclonal Antibodies)
  • Dexamethasone (Corticosteroid)
  • Elotuzumab (Monoclonal Antibodies)
  • Pomalidomide (Immunomodulator)
Trial OverviewThe trial is testing Anti-LAG-3 and Anti-TIGIT immunotherapy drugs alone and in combination with pomalidomide plus dexamethasone against the standard FDA-approved combo of elotuzumab with pomalidomide and dexamethasone. It aims to assess their safety profile and effect on the immune system in multiple myeloma treatment.
