Trial Outcomes & Findings for Carfilzomib in Treating Patients With Multiple Myeloma in First Relapse or Refractory to First-Line Therapy (NCT NCT02020941)

NCT ID: NCT02020941

Last Updated: 2016-11-02

Results Overview

: Evaluate the overall response rate of patients receiving therapy. Patients are considered as having a response if their overall response is Partial Response or better. The percentage of patients achieving this and the exact 95% confidence interval will be calculated. Responses will be defined using the International Myeloma Working Group-Uniform Response Criteria (IMWG-URC).

Measure
Treatment (Carfilzomib, Dexamethasone)
TREATMENT PHASE (COURSES 1-8): Patients receive carfilzomib IV over 30 minutes on days 1, 2, 8, 9, 15, and 16. Treatment repeats every 28 days for 8 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients achieving less than PR also receive dexamethasone PO or IV weekly in courses 4-8. MAINTENANCE PHASE (COURSES 9-14): Patients receive carfilzomib IV over 30 minutes on days 1, 2, 15, and 16. Patients who received dexamethasone in the Treatment Phase continue to receive dexamethasone PO or IV weekly. Treatment repeats every 28 days for 6 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. carfilzomib: Given IV dexamethasone: Given IV or PO laboratory biomarker analysis: Correlative studies
