See full description
Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults over 18 with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma. Participants must have good organ function, not be pregnant or breastfeeding, agree to use effective contraception methods, and cannot have had more than one prior treatment cycle for MM. They should not have severe lung conditions, recent major surgery, other active cancers or certain infections.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests a combination of daratumumab with carfilzomib, lenalidomide and dexamethasone in new multiple myeloma cases. Daratumumab is an artificial protein that targets cancer cells and activates the immune system to fight them when combined with these medications.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may include reactions related to the immune system's activation such as flu-like symptoms, fatigue, nausea; possible blood disorders; increased risk of infections due to lowered immunity; and specific drug-related reactions which will vary by individual.
