Summary
This trial is testing a new combination of drugs to see if it can help people with multiple myeloma who have had two stem cell transplants.
Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults aged 18-75 with relapsed multiple myeloma after a first stem cell transplant. They must have failed 1 or 2 treatment lines, received specific induction therapy before a second transplant, and be responding to current treatment. Participants need proper organ function and can't join if they're pregnant, breastfeeding, have severe neuropathy, other active cancers or infections, heart issues, uncontrolled illnesses or are sensitive to the drugs tested.
What is being tested?
The study tests whether adding Elotuzumab (a monoclonal antibody) to Pomalidomide (an immunomodulatory drug) and Dexamethasone (a steroid), known as Elo-Pom-Dex regimen, improves outcomes in patients receiving their second autologous stem cell transplantation for multiple myeloma.
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects include immune system effects like increased risk of infection; blood clots; fatigue; bone marrow suppression leading to low blood counts; allergic reactions; nerve damage causing numbness or pain; digestive issues such as constipation or diarrhea.

Experimental Treatment
Group I: Elotuzumab + Pomalidomide + DexamethasoneExperimental Treatment3 Interventions
* Patients will receive 2-6 cycles of salvage/induction per standard of care. After protocol version 02/13/2020, patients may have already received their induction therapy prior to enrolling in the study.
* Following induction, patients will undergo standard of care ASCT melphalan conditioning (ASCT). Administration of melphalan and the second ASCT will be done as part of routine care and procedures are not dictated by this protocol.
* Continuation therapy with Elo-Pom-Dex will begin between Days 80 and 120 following the second ASCT:
* 10 mg/kg of elotuzumab on Days 1 and 15 for Cycles 1-6 followed by 20 mg/kg on Day 1 for Cycles 7+
* 2 mg pomalidomide daily on Days 1-21 of all cycles
* 40 mg dexamethasone on Days 1 and 15 of all cycles for Cycles 1-6 followed by 40 mg on Day 1 for Cycles 7+
* Continuation therapy may continue until relapse or progression.
