IFM2024-06 : A multi-center, open-label, phase 2 randomized study of elranatamab plus lenalidomide versus daratumumab plus lenalidomide as post transplantation maintenance therapy in patients with newly-diagnosed myeloma

Prior treatment

• Subjects have received any prior anti BCMA therapy
• Systemic treatment with strong inhibitors of CYP1A2 (fluvoxamine, enoxacin), strong inhibitors of CYP3A (clarithromycin, telithromycin, itraconazole, voriconazole, ketoconazole, nefazodone, posaconazole) or strong CYP3A inducers (rifampin, rifapentine, rifabutin, carbamazepine, phenytoin, phenobarbital), or use of Ginkgo biloba or St. John’s wort within 14 days before the first dose of study treatment.
• Known intolerance to steroid therapy.
• Subject has had major surgery within 2 weeks before randomization or will not have fully recovered from surgery, or has surgery planned during the time the subject is expected to participate in the study. Kyphoplasty or Vertebroplasty are not considered major surgery.
• Subject have received post transplantation maintenance therapy
• Myocardial infarction within 6 months prior to enrollment according to NYHA Class III or IV heart failure, uncontrolled angina, severe uncontrolled ventricular arrhythmias, or electrocardiographic evidence of acute ischemia or active conduction system abnormalities.

Other illness

• History of allergy to any of the study medications, their analogues, or excipients in the various formulations.
• Clinically relevant active infection or serious co-morbid medical conditions.
• Prior malignancy except adequately treated basal cell or squamous cell skin cancer, in situ cervical, breast or prostate cancer free of disease since 5 years.
• Serious medical or psychiatric illness likely to interfere with participation in study.
• Uncontrolled diabetes mellitus.
• Incidence of gastrointestinal disease that may significantly alter the absorption of oral drugs.
• Uncontrolled hypertension
• Subjects with known chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) with a Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 second (FEV1) < 50% of predicted normal. Note that FEV1 testing is required for patients suspected of having COPD and subjects must be excluded if FEV1 < 50% of predicted normal.
• Subjects with a history of moderate or severe persistent asthma within the past 2 years, or with uncontrolled asthma of any classification at the time of screening (Note that subjects who currently have controlled intermittent asthma or controlled mild persistent asthma are allowed in the study).

Lab values

• Active HBV, HCV, SARS-CoV-2, HIV, or any active, uncontrolled bacterial, fungal, or viral infection. Active infections must be resolved at least 21 days prior to enrollment. Treatment with systemic anti-infective agents must have completed at least 28 days prior to enrollment. Prophylactic use of systemic agents is permitted. • COVID-19/SARS-CoV-2: SARS-CoV-2 PCR testing is mandated within 5 days prior to enrollment. Participants with positive PCR test result for SARS-CoV-2 within 5 days prior to enrollment, or suspected of having SARS-CoV-2, are excluded. • HIV: In equivocal cases, participants whose viral load is negative may be eligible. HIV seropositive participants who are otherwise healthy and at low risk for AIDS-related outcomes could be considered eligible. Potential eligibility for a specific HIV positive protocol candidate should be evaluated and discussed with the sponsor prior to screening, considering current and past CD4+ and T-cell counts, history (if any) of AIDS defining conditions (eg, opportunistic infections), status of HIV treatment and the potential for drug-drug interactions. • HBV: - Participants with a positive HBsAg test (ie, either acute or chronic active hepatitis) are excluded. - Participants with HBV antibody positivity indicating immunity, either due to vaccination or prior natural infection, are eligible. - Participants with positive anti-HBcAb but negative HBsAg and negative anti-HBsAb profile are eligible if HBV DNA is not detected. • HCV: Positive HCV antibody is indicative of infection but may not necessarily render a potential candidate ineligible, depending on clinical circumstances. If exposure to HCV is recent, HCV antibody may not have yet turned positive. In these circumstances it is recommended to test for HCV RNA. If HCV RNA is detected, the patient is not eligible.
• Subject has plasma cell leukemia (according to WHO criterion: ≥ 20% of cells in the peripheral blood with an absolute plasma cell count of more than 2 × 109/L) or POEMS syndrome (polyneuropathy, organomegaly, endocrinopathy, monoclonal protein, and skin changes).

Other

• Female subject who is pregnant or breast-feeding.
• Subjects unable or unwilling to undergo antithrombotic prophylactic treatment.
• Person under guardianship, trusteeship or deprived of freedom by a judicial or administrative decision.
• Subject intolerant to lenalidomide or having discontinued treatment due to any AE related to lenalidomide
• Subject is exhibiting clinical signs of meningeal involvement of multiple myeloma.

• Male or female subjects, 18 years of age or older
• Men must agree to not father a child and agree to use a latex condom during therapy and for 6 months after the last dose of study drug, even if they have had a successful vasectomy, if their partner is of childbearing potential
• Voluntary written informed consent must be given before performance of any study-related procedure not part of normal medical care, with the understanding that the subject may withdraw consent at any time without prejudice to future medical care
• Subject must have documented multiple myeloma according to International Myeloma Working Group (IMWG) criteria and have received 4 to 6 cycles of quadruplet-based therapy including proteasome inhibitor, IMID and anti CD38 monoclonal antibody
• Subject must have received only one line of therapy and achieved at least a partial response as per IMWG 2016 criteria.
• Subject must have received high-dose melphalan and ASCT within 12 months of the start of induction therapy and be within 6 months of the last ASCT at the time of first treatment dose.
• Subject must have NGS analysis performed at time of MM diagnosis and/or adequate stored bone marrow material allowing NGS analysis (IUCT-Oncopole, Toulouse, France) in order to calibrate MRD analysis
• Karnofsky performance status score ≥ 50% (eastern cooperative oncology group performance status ECOG score ≤ 2)
• Subject must have clinical laboratory values meeting the following criteria during the Screening Phase : Hematology • Hemoglobin >8.0 g/dL without prior RBC transfusion within 7 days before the laboratory test; recombinant human erythropoietin use is permitted) • Platelets ≥75×109/L (without transfusion support or thrombopoietin receptor agonist within 7 days before the laboratory test) • Absolute neutrophil count ≥1.0×109/L (prior growth factor support is permitted but must be without support for 7 days for G-CSF or 14 days for pegylated-G-CSF) Chemistry • AST and ALT ≤2.5× upper limit of normal (ULN) • CrCl ≥30 mL/min based on Cockroft-Gault formula calculation or a 24-hour urine collection • Total bilirubin ≤1.5×ULN; except in participants with congenital bilirubinemia, such as Gilbert syndrome (in which case direct bilirubin ≤2×ULN is required) • Serum calcium corrected for albumin ≤14 mg/dL (≤3.5 mmol/L)
• Women of childbearing potential must have a negative serum or urine pregnancy test within 10 to 14 days prior to therapy and repeated within 24 hours before starting study drug.

Highly effective contraceptive methods are defined as any of the following methods: combined hormonal contraception (containing estrogen and progestin) combined with ovulation inhibition (oral, intravaginal, transdermal), progestin-only hormonal contraception combined with ovulation inhibition (oral, injectable, implantable), intrauterine device (IUD), hormone-releasing intrauterine system (IUS), bilateral tubal occlusion, vasectomised partner, sexual abstinence. Women must also agree to notify pregnancy during the study.
