Comparing two drug combos for elderly myeloma
Part of Blood & lymphatic, Cancer, Heart & circulation, Immune system & allergy clinical trials.
This trial compares two different drug combinations (DRd and VRd-lite) for older adults (65+) who are newly diagnosed with multiple myeloma. The goal is to see which combination works better and is easier to tolerate.

This early-phase study compares two drug combinations—chidamide plus VRD versus VRD alone—to see which works better for primary high-risk multiple myeloma. The goal is to improve response while closely monitoring side effects and heart/lung safety.
This trial tests two different drug combinations for people newly diagnosed with multiple myeloma who are not getting a stem cell transplant right away. It compares one drug (elranatamab) to another (daratumumab), both given with a standard three-drug regimen called RVd Lite, to see which works better.
This trial compares two different combinations of medications for people with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma who are not planning to have a stem cell transplant. It looks at whether adding a targeted antibody drug is as effective as the standard approach.
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 tests a new combination of drugs (isatuximab, bortezomib, lenalidomide, and dexamethasone) for people who are older or frail and have just been diagnosed with multiple myeloma. It aims to see if this treatment can help control the disease better, especially if certain cancer cells are found in the blood.
This trial tests two combinations of drugs (Dara-RVd and Teclistamab-RVd) for people newly diagnosed with multiple myeloma who are eligible for a stem cell transplant. The goal is to see if adding a newer drug called Teclistamab improves outcomes.
