Study Summary

This is a multicenter, phase II, national, and open-label study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of two different combinations, iberdomide-dexamethasone (IBERDEX) and iberdomide-dexamethasone in combination with daratumumab (IBERDARADEX) in transplant ineligible newly diagnosed multiple myeloma (NDMM) patients. It will be ensured that at least 30% of the patients are frail in order to evaluate the feasibility of these combinations in this special population.

Patients will receive treatment with either iberdomide + dexamethasone (IBERDEX) or iberdomide + daratumumab + dexamethasone (IBERDARADEX), until unacceptable toxicity, disease progression, patient withdrawal, loss to follow-up, end of study or death, whichever comes first. This is not a randomized trial so eligible patients will be sequentially allocated to receive iberdomide-dexamethasone or iberdomide-dexamethasone plus daratumumab.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

Inclusion Criteria:

  1. Patient is, in the investigator's opinion, willing and able to comply with theprotocol requirements.
  2. Patient must be able to understand the study procedures.

  5. Patient must have a measurable secretory disease defined as either serum monoclonalprotein of ≥ 0,5 g/dl or urine monoclonal (light chain) protein ≥ 200 mg/24 h. Forpatients whose disease is only measurable by serum FLC, the involved FLC should be ≥ 10mg/L (100 mg/dl), with an abnormal serum FLC ratio.
  6. Patient is defined as non-frail or frail using the modified-IMWG scale (APPENDIX 5).Frailty score according to the modified-IMWG scale will be collected before startingthe treatment in order to ensure 30% of the patients are frail.
  7. Patient must have an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of ≤ 2
  8. Patient must be ≥ 18 years of age
  9. Patient must have adequate organ function,
  10. Female childbearing potential patient (FCBP) criteria: contraceptive use should beconsistent with local regulations regarding the methods of contraception for thoseparticipating in clinical studies. A female patient is eligible to participate if she is not pregnant or breastfeeding,and at least one of the following conditions applies:
  • Is not a female of childbearing potential (FNCBP) OR
  • Is a FCBP and
  • She understands the potential teratogenic risk to the unborn child
  • She understands the need for effective contraception, without interruption, 28 days before starting study treatment, throughout the entire duration ofstudy treatment, during dose interruptions and for at least 3 months afterthe last dose of study treatment.
  • She understands and agrees to inform the Investigator if a change or stop ofmethod of contraception is needed
  • She must be capable of complying with effective contraceptive measures
  • She is informed and understands the potential consequences of pregnancy andthe need to notify her study doctor immediately if there is a risk ofpregnancy
  • She understands the need to commence study treatment as soon as it isdispensed following a negative pregnancy test
  • She understands and accepts the need to undergo pregnancy testing based onthe frequency outlined in this plan

  • Acknowledges the aforementioned requirements. A FCBP must have a negative highlysensitive serum pregnancy test (as required by local regulations) within 24 hoursbefore the first dose of study drug(s). Non-childbearing potential is defined as follows (by other than medical reasons):
  • Has not achieved menarche at some point
  • Has undergone a hysterectomy or bilateral oophorectomy
  • Has been naturally postmenopausal (amenorrhea following cancer therapy does notrule out childbearing potential) for at least 24 consecutive months (ie, has hadmenses at any time in the preceding 24 consecutive months).

Male patient is eligible to participate if he agrees to the following during doseinterruptions and for at least 3 months following the last dose of iberdomide to allowfor clearance of any altered sperm:
  • Understand the potential teratogenic risk if engaged in sexual activity with apregnant female or a FCBP
  • Understand the need for the use of a condom even if he has had a vasectomy, ifengaged in sexual activity with a pregnant female or a FCBP
  • Understand the potential teratogenic risk if the subject donates semen or sperm.
  • Understand that the effects on fertility are currently unknown, therefore allfamily planning options and/or alternatives should be thoroughly discussed withthe study doctor prior to receiving study drugs.

Study Description

This is a multicenter, phase II, national, and open-label study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of two different combinations, iberdomide-dexamethasone (IBERDEX) and iberdomide-dexamethasone in combination with daratumumab (IBERDARADEX) in transplant ineligible newly diagnosed multiple myeloma (NDMM) patients. It will be ensured that at least 30% of the patients are frail in order to evaluate the feasibility of these combinations in this special population.

Patients will receive treatment with either iberdomide + dexamethasone (IBERDEX) or iberdomide + daratumumab + dexamethasone (IBERDARADEX), until unacceptable toxicity, disease progression, patient withdrawal, loss to follow-up, end of study or death, whichever comes first. This is not a randomized trial so eligible patients will be sequentially allocated to receive iberdomide-dexamethasone or iberdomide-dexamethasone plus daratumumab.

Participants will be evaluated for study eligibility per protocol as defined in the Inclusion/Exclusion criteria . The screening period takes place 28 days prior to the baseline visit.

Frontline treatment: cohorts 1 and 2

Cohort 1: IBERDEX

  • Iberdomide on days 1 to 21 at 1.6 mg, every 4 weeks, orally (PO).

  • Dexamethasone will be given on days 1, 8, 15, and 22 at 40 mg (patients aged ≥ 75 years: 20 mg), every 4 weeks, PO.

Cohort 2: IBERDARADEX

  • Iberdomide on days 1 to 21 at 1.6 mg, every 4 weeks, PO.

  • Dexamethasone will be given on days 1, 8, 15, and 22 at 40 mg (patients aged ≥ 75 years: 20 mg), every 4 weeks, PO.

  • Daratumumab will be given at 1800 mg, every 4 weeks, subcutaneously (SC). Cycles 1 and 2 (C1 and C2): Days 1, 8, 15, and 22 C3-6: Days 1 and 15 From C7 onwards: Day 1 of each cycle

The study treatment in both cohorts will be until unacceptable toxicity, disease progression, patient withdrawal, loss to follow-up, end of study or death, whichever comes first.

The trial has the following objectives:

Primary Objectives

PO1: To determine the efficacy of iberdomide in combination with dexamethasone (IBERDEX cohort 1) and also in combination with daratumumab and dexamethasone (IBERDARADEX cohort 2) in transplant ineligible NDMM patients, as measured by overall response rate (ORR) as well as the other response categories and especially the complete response rate (CRR) according to the International Myeloma Working Group (IMWG) response criteria 2016.

Secondary Objectives

SO1: To evaluate the efficacy in terms of minimal residual disease (MRD) with especial attention to the proportion of patients in MRD negative at 12 months of starting treatment as well as patients able to sustain it over time (according to the IMWG response criteria 2016).

SO2: To evaluate time to event data in the overall population and in the frail and non-frail population: Progression Free Survival (PFS) (from the time of inclusion in the trial until progression and/or death) and Overall Survival (OS).

SO3: To evaluate the changes in the immune profiling in order to better understand the outcomes in the overall population and in the non-frail and frail subgroups of patients.

SO4: To assess quality of life evolution through EQ-5D/5L, QLQ-C30 and MY20 questionnaires, at baseline and at months 4, 8, 12, 18, and 24.

SO5: To assess the safety of the combination of iberdomide + dexamethasone and iberdomide + dexamethasone + daratumumab.
