Details and patient eligibility

About

The purpose of this study is to learn more about ways to prevent or delay relapse of multiple myeloma (MM). This study will determine the best dosing schedule of LBH589 maintenance therapy as well as the safety (side effects) and tolerability of LBH589 maintenance therapy after autologous hematopoietic cell transplant (HCT).

Inclusion criteria

Adult patients, age ≥ 18 years old
Ability to provide written informed consent obtained prior to participation in the study and any related procedures being performed
Histologically confirmed diagnosis of multiple myeloma
Meeting the Criteria for Symptomatic Multiple Myeloma (CRAB criteria) before the initiation of systemic chemotherapy
Received high-dose melphalan (≥ 140 mg/m^2) followed by autologous HCT based on the institutional guidelines and within +45 and +180 after autologous HCT at the time of panobinostat maintenance initiation
Must have achieved at least partial response (PR) prior to autologous HCT and must not have progressive disease (PD) prior to the initiation of maintenance therapy

Exclusion criteria

Potential participants who have purely non-secretory multiple myeloma (i.e., the absence of a measurable protein in serum by electrophoresis and immunofixation and the absence of Bence-Jones protein in the urine defined by use of electrophoresis and immunofixation)
Prior allogeneic HCT
Prior solid organ transplant requiring immunosuppressive therapy
Potential participants who will need valproic acid for any medical condition during the study or within 5 days prior to first panobinostat treatment
Impaired cardiac function or clinically significant cardiac diseases
Diarrhea > Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) grade 2
Other concurrent severe and/or uncontrolled medical conditions (e.g., uncontrolled diabetes or active or uncontrolled infection) including abnormal laboratory values, that could cause unacceptable safety risks or compromise compliance with the protocol
Using medications that have a relative risk of prolonging the QT interval or inducing torsade de pointes if treatment cannot be discontinued or switched to a different medication prior to starting study drug
Have received targeted agents within 2 weeks or within 5 half-lives of the agent and active metabolites (whichever is longer) and who have not recovered from side effects of those therapies.
Have received either immunotherapy within < 8 weeks; chemotherapy within < 4 weeks; or radiation therapy to > 30% of marrow-bearing bone within < 2 weeks prior to starting study treatment; or who have not yet recovered from side effects of such therapies
Have undergone major surgery ≤ 4 weeks prior to starting study drug or have not recovered from side effects of such therapy
