About
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if anitocabtagene autoleucel following induction therapy works to treat adult participants with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma. The main objectives of this clinical trial are:
Participants will receive induction therapy with a quadruplet regimen including a proteasome inhibitor (Bortezomib [V]), immunomodulatory drug (Lenalidomide [R]), dexamethasone [d] and anti-CD38 monoclonal antibody (Daratumumab [D] or Isatuximab [Isa]) followed by anitocabtagene autoleucel. Participants in Cohorts A and B will receive lenalidomide maintenance therapy following infusion with anitocabtagene autoleucel.
Full description
Approximately 30 participants will be enrolled to receive induction therapy followed by a single dose of anitocabtagene autoleucel (~ 10 patients treated at target treatment dose per cohort). Participants will be distributed in 3 cohorts of treatment (A, B and C). Participants of cohort A will be transplant eligible while participants of cohorts B and C will not be planned to receive transplantation:
Induction therapy:
Bridging Therapy:
Bridging therapy will not be required because the leukapheresis and manufacturing will be planned during the induction phase to allow the availability of anitocabtagene autoleucel at the end of the induction therapy.
Lymphodepleting Chemotherapy:
Chemotherapy regimen consisting of cyclophosphamide 300 mg/m2/day and fludarabine 30 mg/m2/day will be administered intravenously (IV) daily for 3 days (Days -5 through -3) before administration of anitocabtagene autoleucel. The fludarabine dose may be adjusted for renal function. Initiation of the 3-day lymphodepleting chemotherapy regimen on Day -7 or Day -6 prior to the anitocabtagene autoleucel infusion on Day +1 is permitted.
Anitocabtagene Autoleucel:
Treatment consists of a single infusion of anitocabtagene autoleucel administered intravenous (IV) on Day 1 at a target dose of 115 x 10e6 (± 10 x 10e6) CAR+ viable T cells.
Maintenance Therapy:
Cohorts A and B will receive maintenance therapy which will consist of lenalidomide 10 mg daily (days 1 to 28 of repeated 28-day cycle) for 2 years or until unacceptable toxicity, progression as per IMWG criteria, participant withdrawal of consent, death, or study completion, whichever occurs first. If any of these circumstances occur participant maintenance will end. After 3 cycles of lenalidomide maintenance, the dose can be increased to 15 mg orally once daily if tolerated.

Inclusion criteria
Newly diagnosed Multiple Myeloma according to the IMWG criteria published in 2014.
Measurable disease at screening per IMWG, defined as any of the following:
Serum M-protein level ≥ 1 g/dL or urine M-protein level ≥ 200 mg/24 hours; or
Light chain MM without measurable disease in the serum or urine: serum free light chain ≥ 10 mg/dL and abnormal serum free light chain ratio.
Only participants who are candidates to receive either D-VRd or Isa-VRd induction regimens, as determined by the investigator, should be considered for this study.
Male or female aged 18 years or older and has capacity to give informed consent.
Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0 or 1.
Adequate hematological function defined as the following:
Adequate renal, hepatic, pulmonary, and cardiac function defined as the following:
Females of childbearing potential must have a medically supervised negative serum or urine pregnancy test with a sensitivity of at least 25 mIU/mL (females who have undergone surgical sterilization or who have been postmenopausal for at least 2 years are not considered to be of childbearing potential; refer to Section 12.2).
Willing to comply with and able to tolerate study procedures, including consent to participate in separate Long-term Safety Follow-up lasting up to 15 years per authorities´ guidance.
Exclusion criteria
Active or prior history of central nervous system (CNS) or meningeal involvement of MM.
Cardiac atrial or cardiac ventricular MM involvement.
Diagnosis of primary amyloidosis (AL), monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (MGUS), smoldering multiple myeloma (SMM), plasma cell leukemia (PCL), active POEMS syndrome (polyneuropathy, organomegaly, endocrinopathy, monoclonal protein, and skin changes) or Waldenstrom's macroglobulinemia at the time of screening.
Active malignancy (other than MM) requiring ongoing treatment for disease control within the last 24 months. Myelodysplastic syndrome (even without ongoing treatment) is not permitted. Allowed malignancy exceptions are:
Any prior systemic anti-myeloma treatment (including BCMA-directed treatment) and/or radiotherapy before enrollment. Palliative radiation and corticosteroids (up to cumulative dose of 160mg prednisone or equivalent, and not requiring ongoing therapy) prior to enrollment are permitted. Participants must have recovered from all radiation-related toxicities. Patients with radiation-induced lung injury (RILI, radiation pneumonitis) during screening are excluded.
Prior allogeneic stem cell transplant (allo-SCT) (even if for another malignancy)
Live vaccine ≤ 4 weeks before enrollment and/or anticipating needing the vaccine during study period.
Presence or suspicion of fungal, bacterial, viral, or other infection that is systemic uncontrolled or requiring IV antimicrobials for management. Simple urinary tract infections and uncomplicated bacterial pharyngitis are permitted if the participant is responding to active treatment and satisfies the criteria of being afebrile (i.e., temperature < 38°C) for at least 24 hours prior to the investigator confirming the participant's eligibility.
Acute or chronic active hepatitis A, B, or C infection. Participants with a history of hepatitis infection must have cleared their infection as determined by standard serological and genetic testing per current Infectious Diseases Society of America (IDSA) guidelines or applicable country guidelines.
Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-seropositive.
Participants with history or presence of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) with a forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1) < 50% of predicted normal will not be permitted to receive anti-CD38 monoclonal antibody in combination with VRd therapy; Note: FEV1 testing is required for participants who are planned
History of myocardial infarction, cardiac angioplasty or stenting, unstable angina, or other clinically significant cardiac disease within 6 months before enrollment.
