About

This is a multicenter, prospective, randomized controlled trial designed to compare the quadruplet regimen of isatuximab, bortezomib, lenalidomide, and dexamethasone (Isa-VRD) with the standard triplet regimen (VRD) in newly diagnosed, transplant-ineligible patients with high-risk multiple myeloma (HRMM).

Primary Hypothesis:

The addition of isatuximab to VRD will significantly improve the MRD negativity rate at 12 months compared to VRD alone in HR-NDMM patients.

Secondary Hypotheses:

Isa-VRD will lead to higher overall response rates (ORR), deeper responses, and improved progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS).

The safety profile of Isa-VRD will be manageable and consistent with the known safety profiles of its individual components.

Full description

This is a prospective, multicenter, randomized, open-label, Phase IIIb clinical trial. The study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the quadruplet regimen Isatuximab in combination with Bortezomib, Lenalidomide, and Dexamethasone (Isa-VRD) compared to the standard triplet regimen of Bortezomib, Lenalidomide, and Dexamethasone (VRD) in newly diagnosed high-risk multiple myeloma (HRMM) patients who are not candidates for autologous stem cell transplantation.

A total of 117 participants will be enrolled and randomly assigned in a 2:1 ratio to receive either Isa-VRD (78 participants) or VRD (39 participants). The study consists of an induction-consolidation phase (cycles 1-12) followed by a maintenance phase (from cycle 13 onwards until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity).

The primary endpoint is the rate of minimal residual disease (MRD) negativity in the bone marrow assessed by flow cytometry at 12 months of treatment. Key secondary endpoints include MRD negativity rate at 18 months, objective response rate (ORR), progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), and safety profile.

Enrollment: 117 estimated patients

Sex: All

Ages: 18 to 80 years old

Volunteers: No Healthy Volunteers

---

117 participants in 2 patient groups

IsaVRD group

Experimental group

Description:

Participants in this group will receive the quadruplet induction-consolidation regimen of Isatuximab in combination with Bortezomib, Lenalidomide, and Dexamethasone (Isa-VRD) for 12 cycles (each cycle is 28 days). This will be followed by a maintenance therapy with Isatuximab, Bortezomib and Lenalidomide until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

Treatment:

Drug: Isatuximab, bortezomib, lenalidomide, dexamethason

VRD group

Active Comparator group

Description:

Participants in this group will receive the standard triplet induction-consolidation regimen of Bortezomib, Lenalidomide, and Dexamethasone (VRD) for 12 cycles (each cycle is 28 days). This will be followed by a maintenance therapy with Bortezomib and Lenalidomide until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

Treatment:

Drug: Bortezomib, Lenalidomide, Dexamethasone
