A study of CAR-T therapy for newly diagnosed multiple myeloma
Treatments studied
Part of Blood & lymphatic, Cancer, Heart & circulation, Immune system & allergy clinical trials.
This trial tests a one-time cell therapy called ciltacabtagene autoleucel (a CAR-T treatment) in people who have newly diagnosed multiple myeloma and are not eligible for a stem cell transplant. It aims to see if this treatment is safe and effective as an early therapy.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must have been diagnosed with multiple myeloma that is measurable in the blood or urine.
- You should not be a candidate for high-dose chemo with stem cell transplant due to age, other health conditions, or your choice to avoid it.
- You must have already received 3 to 5 cycles of initial drug therapy (like DRd, VRd, or DVRd) and have had a partial response or better.
- You need to be in good physical condition (ECOG score of 0 or 1) and willing to follow study guidelines.
- You cannot have significant frailty (score of 2 or more on a special geriatric assessment).
- You must not have certain ongoing side effects from earlier therapy or need constant oxygen.

This Phase 1/2 study tests a personalized CAR-T cell treatment that targets a protein called BCMA on myeloma cells. It’s designed for people with multiple myeloma who have already tried several other treatments and still have measurable disease.
This trial tests a new kind of CAR-T cell therapy (called APRIL-BAFF-Bicephali CAR-T) for people with multiple myeloma that has come back or not responded to treatment. It aims to see if this therapy is safe and can help when other treatments have stopped working.
This trial tests a new type of CAR-T cell therapy that targets two proteins (BCMA and GPRC5D) on myeloma cells. It is for people whose multiple myeloma has come back or not responded after at least three prior treatments.
This trial tests a new type of immunotherapy called Multi-CAR T cells for people with multiple myeloma that has come back or not responded to other treatments. It aims to see if these specially engineered cells can better fight the cancer.
This trial tests a new CAR-T cell therapy that targets FcRL5 on myeloma cells. It's for people whose myeloma has come back or stopped responding to other treatments, including stem cell transplant.
This trial tests whether giving BCMA-targeting CAR-T cells after a stem cell transplant can help treat newly diagnosed multiple myeloma. It is for people who are healthy enough for both procedures.
