Summary

This trial is testing a new cancer drug. It's open-label, which means participants know what drug they're taking, and it's single-arm, which means everyone gets the same treatment. The safety lead-in phase is to make sure the drug is safe before giving it to everyone in the trial.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with multiple myeloma who haven't had much prior treatment, can perform daily activities (ECOG 0-2), and have measurable disease. They must be able to give consent, agree to use contraception if necessary, and be eligible for stem cell transplantation. Exclusions include other cancers, central nervous system involvement by myeloma, significant heart issues or other conditions that could affect the study.
What is being tested?
The trial tests a combination of drugs: Bortezomib, Isatuximab, Cyclophosphamide and Dexamethasone in patients eligible for stem cell transplant. It's an open-label phase II study which means everyone gets the same treatment and both doctors and patients know what's being given.
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects include nausea from Cyclophosphamide; nerve damage from Bortezomib; infusion reactions from Isatuximab; insomnia or increased blood sugar levels from Dexamethasone. Each drug has its own set of potential side effects that may vary among individuals.
