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 combination of three drugs (CM336, daratumumab, and lenalidomide) for people with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma who are not eligible for a stem cell transplant. The goal is to see if this combination is safe and effective in controlling the disease.
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 two treatments (lenalidomide plus elranatamab versus lenalidomide plus daratumumab) as maintenance therapy after a stem cell transplant for multiple myeloma. The goal is to see which combination is better at keeping the cancer in remission.
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 study tests an investigational drug for people with multiple myeloma, a type of blood cancer. It aims to see how safe and effective the treatment is for patients who are newly diagnosed or have relapsed after prior therapy.
