Study Groups

Carfilzomib + Lenalidomide + Dexamethasone

Treatment during Cycles 1 through 12 consisted of carfilzomib (15, 20, or 20/27 mg/m²) on Days 1, 2, 8, 9, 15, and 16; lenalidomide (10, 15, 20, or 25 mg) on Days 1 to 21; and low-dose dexamethasone (40 mg) given 30 minutes to 4 hours before the carfilzomib dose on Days 1, 8, and 15, as well as on Day 22. For Cycles 13 and higher, carfilzomib could be omitted on Days 8 and 9 at the investigator's discretion.

Group Type: EXPERIMENTAL

• Urine Bence-Jones protein ≥ 200 mg/24 h
• If Serum Protein Electrophoresis is felt to be unreliable for routine M-protein measurement (particularly for patients with Immunoglobulin (Ig)A multiple myeloma), then quantitative immunoglobulin levels can be accepted.

6. Prior to enrollment, sites must provide evidence of myeloma progression/relapse, with start and stop dates of the most recent treatment regimen, as well as best tumor response to all prior treatment regimens.

11. Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥ 1,000/mm³, hemoglobin ≥ 8 gm/dL, platelet count ≥ 50,000/ mm³ (≥ 30 × 10^9/L if myeloma involvement in the bone marrow is > 50%)

• Screening ANC should be independent of granulocyte- and granulocyte/macrophage colony stimulating factor (G-CSF and GM-CSF) support for at least 1 week and of pegylated G-CSF for at least 2 weeks.
• Subjects may receive red blood cell (RBC) or platelet transfusions, if clinically indicated, in accordance with institutional guidelines
• Screening platelet count should be independent of platelet transfusions for at least 2 weeks

12. Calculated or measured creatinine clearance of ≥ 50 mL/minute, calculated using the formula of Cockcroft and Gault [(140 - Age) x Mass (kg) / (72 x creatinine mg/dL)]; multiply result by 0.85 (if female). Other generally accepted calculation methods can be substituted.

Ethical/Other

13. Written informed consent in accordance with federal, local, and institutional guidelines
