Summary

This trial is comparing two different treatments for relapsed myeloma. One is the standard of care, daratumumab + bortezomib/dexamethasone, and the other is a new drug, belantamab mafodotin, + bortezomib/dexamethasone. The trial will evaluate how well each works and if one is better than the other.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for people with multiple myeloma who've had at least one prior treatment and whose disease has gotten worse after their most recent therapy. They must have good organ function, a performance status showing they can handle daily activities, and measurable signs of the disease. People with eye diseases affecting the cornea, intolerance to certain drugs used in this study, ongoing severe nerve pain or damage, previous treatments targeting BCMA or an allogenic stem cell transplant cannot join.
What is being tested?
The study compares two combinations of cancer drugs in patients with relapsed multiple myeloma: Belantamab Mafodotin with Bortezomib/Dexamethasone versus Daratumumab with Bortezomib/Dexamethasone. It's randomized and open-label so participants know which treatment they're getting.
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects include eye problems like blurry vision due to belantamab mafodotin; infections, fatigue, nausea from bortezomib; infusion reactions from daratumumab; and weight gain or mood changes from dexamethasone.
