Trial Review

Did you know?

The ANZCTR now automatically displays published trial results and simplifies the addition of trial documents such as unpublished protocols and statistical analysis plans.

These enhancements will offer a more comprehensive view of trials, regardless of whether their results are positive, negative, or inconclusive.

The safety and scientific validity of this study is the responsibility of the study sponsor and investigators. Listing a study does not mean it has been endorsed by the ANZCTR. Before participating in a study, talk to your health care provider and refer to this information for consumers

The first pregnancy test will be performed within 10-14 days prior to the start of Rd or MPT and the second pregnancy test will be performed within 24 hours prior to the start of Rd or MPT. She must also agree to ongoing pregnancy testing during the course of the study and after the end of study therapy. This applies even if the patient practices complete and continued sexual abstinence.
2. Must commit to either continued abstinence from heterosexual intercourse (which must be reviewed on a monthly basis) or agree to use and be able to comply with effective contraception without interruption, 28 days prior to starting study drug, during the study therapy (including during periods of dose interruptions), and for 28 days after discontinuation of study therapy.

8. All patients must:

1. Have an understanding that the study drug could have a potential teratogenic risk.
2. Agree to abstain from donating blood while taking study drug therapy and following discontinuation of study drug therapy.

Key exclusion criteria
1. Previous treatment with anti-myeloma therapy (does not include radiotherapy, bisphosphonates, or a single short course of steroid [i.e., less than or equal to the equivalent of dexamethasone 40 mg/day for 4 days; such a short course of steroid treatment must not have been given within 14 days of randomization]).
2. Any serious medical condition that places the patient at an unacceptable risk if he or she participates in this study. Examples of such a medical condition are, but are not limited to, patient with unstable cardiac disease as defined by: Cardiac events such as MI within the past 6 months, NYHA heart failure class III-IV, uncontrolled atrial fibrillation or hypertension; patients with conditions requiring chronic steroid or immunosuppressive treatment, such as rheumatoid arthritis, multiple sclerosis and lupus, that likely need additional steroid or immunosuppressive treatments in addition to the study treatment.
3. Pregnant or lactating females.
4. Any of the following laboratory abnormalities:

* Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) < 1,000/µL (1.0 x 109/L)
* Untransfused platelet count < 50,000 cells/µL (50 x 10^9/L)
* Serum SGOT/AST or SGPT/ALT > 3.0 x upper limit of normal (ULN)
5. Renal failure requiring hemodialysis or peritoneal dialysis.
6. Prior history of malignancies, other than multiple myeloma, unless the patient has been free of the disease for = 3 years. Exceptions include the following:

* Basal cell carcinoma of the skin
* Squamous cell carcinoma of the skin
* Carcinoma in situ of the cervix
* Carcinoma in situ of the breast
* Incidental histological finding of prostate cancer (TNM stage of T1a or T1b)
7. Patients who are unable or unwilling to undergo antithrombotic therapy.
8. Peripheral neuropathy of > grade 2 severity.
9. Known HIV positivity or active infectious hepatitis, type A, B, or C. Primary AL (immunoglobulin light chain) amyloidosis and myeloma complicated by amyloidosis.

* 1 A variety of other types of end organ dysfunctions can occasionally occur and lead to a need for therapy. Such dysfunction is sufficient to support classification as myeloma if proven to be myeloma-related.
* 2 A FCBP is a sexually mature woman who: 1) has not undergone a hysterectomy or bilateral oophorectomy or 2) has not been naturally postmenopausal (i.e., amenorrhea following cancer therapy does not rule out childbearing potential) for at least 24 consecutive months (i.e., has had menses at any time in the preceding 24 consecutive months).
