Summary

This trial will compare the efficacy of daratumumab+pomalidomide+dexamethasone (DPd) to pomalidomide+dexamethasone (Pd) in patients with relapsed or refractory amyloidosis.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for patients with relapsed/refractory light chain amyloidosis who have previously been treated with daratumumab. They should be relatively healthy (performance status 0-2), have normal liver function, stable kidney function, and acceptable blood counts. Patients must not have non-AL amyloidosis, serious infections, significant heart disease, or recent major surgery.
What is being tested?
The study is testing a combination therapy of Daratumumab SC (subcutaneous injection), Pomalidomide, and Dexamethasone in patients who've had Daratumumab before. It aims to see if this combo increases complete remission rates compared to previous treatments with pomalidomide/dexamethasone alone.
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects include immune system reactions like infusion-related responses from Daratumumab SC; fatigue and increased risk of infection from Dexamethasone; and potential blood clots or nerve damage from Pomalidomide.

Trial Design

1Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Group I: daratumumab/pomalidomide/dexamethasoneExperimental Treatment3 Interventions
Pomalidomide: (4mg orally) on days 1-21 of a 28-day cycle Dexamethasone: * 20mg IV as premedication on days 1, 8, 15, and 22 * 20mg orally the day after daratumumab dosing for cycles 1-2 of induction * 40mg IV as premedication on days 1 and 15 on daratumumab treatment days * 40mg orally on non-daratumumab days (8 and 15) for cycles 3-6 * 20mg on day 1 of every cycle as premedication on daratumumab dosing day 1 in maintenance cycles (cycles 7 and beyond) * If you are a subject age 70 and older, the dexamethasone dosing will be reduced by 50% at the time of induction. Daratumumab: * 1800mg sub-cutaneously weekly x8 weeks * 1800mg sub-cutaneously every 2 weeks during induction (cycles 3-6) * 1800mg sub-cutaneously every 4 weeks cycles 7 and beyond
