Brief Summary

This phase II trial studies the effect of isatuximab, carfilzomib, and pomalidomide in treating patients with multiple myeloma that has come back (relapsed) or does not respond to treatment (refractory). Isatuximab is a monoclonal antibody that may interfere with the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. Carfilzomib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Chemotherapy drugs, such as pomalidomide, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving isatuximab, carfilzomib, and pomalidomide may help treat patients with multiple myeloma.

Detailed Description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:

I. To assess the rate of response following treatment with isatuximab combined with carfilzomib and pomalidomide (isatuximab [Isa] carfilzomib [Car] pomalidomide [Pom]).

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To evaluate the safety profile of the IsaCarPom combination. II. To assess duration of disease response following treatment with the IsaCarPom regimen.

III. To assess depth of IsaCarPom treatment as it relates to timing of subsequent therapies.

IV. To assess progression-free survival associated with IsaCarPom. V. To assess overall survival associated with IsaCarPom.

EXPLORATORY OBJECTIVE:

I. To molecularly assess the depth of IsaCarPom treatment by measuring minimal residual disease (MRD).

OUTLINE:

Patients receive isatuximab intravenously (IV) over 30-60 minutes on days 1, 8, 15, and 22 of cycle 1, and days 1 and 15 of subsequent cycles, carfilzomib IV over 10 to 30 minutes on days 1, 8, 15, and pomalidomide orally (PO) once daily (QD) on days 1-21. Cycles repeat every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up every 12 weeks for up to 24 months.

• Relapsed myeloma: Previously treated myeloma that has progressed and is neither "refractory myeloma" nor "relapsed-and-refractory myeloma"
• Refractory myeloma: Nonresponsive myeloma while on primary or salvage therapy, or progresses within 60 days of last therapy. Nonresponsive disease is defined as failure to achieve minimal response (MR) or better, achieved with any therapy. Cases in which there is no significant change in M protein and no evidence of clinical progression, are included, as well those cases that progress in disease course

• Primary refractory myeloma: Disease that is nonresponsive in patients who have never achieved a minimal response or better with any therapy

• Toxicity related to prior therapies that, in the opinion of the investigator, would potentially be worsened with anti-CD38 therapy should be resolved to baseline or less than grade 1
• Anticipated life expectancy of at least 6 months (per investigator discretion)
• No contraindication to receiving thromboprophylaxis for pomalidomide
• Patients must have normal marrow and organ function as defined by:

• Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥ 1,000/uL. Patients may receive growth factor support to meet screening criteria. Screening ANC must be redrawn 72 hours after growth factor dosing. Screening platelets or hemoglobin must be redrawn 72 hours after transfusion
• Platelets >= 75,000/uL within 14 days prior to registration. Patients may have received transfusion if > 7 days prior to registration
