About

This study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of post-transplant consolidation therapy with the KPD regimen (carfilzomib, pomalidomide, and dexamethasone) versus no consolidation, followed by maintenance therapy, in patients with transplant-eligible newly diagnosed multiple myeloma (TE-NDMM). The primary goal is to compare minimal residual disease (MRD) negativity rates and overall treatment outcomes between the two groups.

Full description

Multiple myeloma (MM) is a malignancy characterized by abnormal proliferation of plasma cells, leading to organ damage and poor prognosis. Despite advances in treatment, including autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT), the disease remains incurable for most patients. Post-transplant consolidation and maintenance therapies have emerged as critical strategies to deepen remission and prolong progression-free survival (PFS). However, the role of consolidation therapy remains debated. This study aims to clarify whether KPD consolidation therapy after ASCT provides additional benefits compared to direct maintenance therapy.

Newly diagnosed MM eligible for transplantation.
Received upfront triplet or quadraplet induction regimen.
Received upfront ASCT after induction.
ECOG score < 2.
Adequate Organ Function Reserve:
1. Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) / Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) ≤ 2.5 × UNL (upper limit of normal);

Male participants with fertile partners must agree to use effective barrier contraception during the period of using the study drug and within 3 months after the last administration of the study drug;
The participant is willing and able to comply with the study procedures and voluntarily signs the written informed consent form.
