Fixed vs ongoing treatment for older adults with new myeloma
Treatments studied
Part of Blood & lymphatic, Cancer, Heart & circulation, Immune system & allergy clinical trials.
This trial compares stopping treatment after a set number of cycles versus continuing it for people over 65 or those who cannot have a stem cell transplant. It tests whether a fixed treatment period works as well as long-term treatment for newly diagnosed multiple myeloma.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 65 or older or cannot have a stem cell transplant and have been recently diagnosed with multiple myeloma.
- You have finished 18 to 20 cycles of a standard drug combination (daratumumab or isatuximab with lenalidomide and dexamethasone).
- Your myeloma has responded to that treatment (at least a partial response).
- You are able to complete quality-of-life questionnaires in English, French, or another provided language.
- You are willing to use effective birth control if you could become pregnant.

This Phase 2 trial tests a combination of medicines (iberdomide, bortezomib, dexamethasone, and adding isatuximab) for people with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma who cannot have a transplant. The goal is to improve disease control while checking safety in older adults who can take pills and attend frequent visits.
This trial tests a personalized approach to maintenance therapy for people with multiple myeloma who have already had a stem cell transplant. Your treatment plan may be adjusted based on how well your cancer responds and on certain risk factors, with the goal of keeping you in remission longer.
This trial tests a new drug for people with multiple myeloma, a type of blood cancer. It's for those who are newly diagnosed or whose cancer has come back or stopped responding to treatment. The goal is to see if the drug can control the disease.
This trial tests a new combination of two drugs (etentamig and daratumumab) against the current standard of daratumumab plus lenalidomide and dexamethasone in people recently diagnosed with multiple myeloma who cannot have a stem cell transplant. The goal is to see which combination better controls the disease while keeping side effects manageable.
This trial is for people with multiple myeloma who have already completed 12 cycles of a standard treatment (daratumumab, lenalidomide, and dexamethasone) and are doing well. It tests whether taking a break from treatment is safe and effective, instead of continuing without a break.
This trial tests a type of immune therapy called bispecific T-cell redirectors combined with standard medicines for people newly diagnosed with multiple myeloma who are eligible for a stem cell transplant. The goal is to see if this treatment helps control the cancer better.
