Selinexor-Based Triplet Regimens in Patients With Multiple Myeloma Previously Treated With Anti-CD38 Monoclonal Antibodies

High-risk; Oral selective inhibitor of nuclear export; Relapsed/refractoryAlto riesgo; Inhibidor selectivo oral de la exportación nuclear; Recaída/refractarioAlt risc; Inhibidor selectiu oral de l'exportació nuclear; Recaiguda/refractariBackground The increasing use of anti-CD38 monoclonal antibodies (αCD38 mAbs) for newly diagnosed or early relapsed multiple myeloma (MM), especially in non-transplant eligible patients, may lead to more patients developing αCD38 mAb-refractory disease earlier in the treatment course with fewer treatment options. Patients and methods We analyzed the efficacy and safety of selinexor-based triplets (selinexor+dexamethasone [Sd] plus pomalidomide [SPd, n = 23], bortezomib [SVd, n = 16] or carfilzomib (SKd, n = 23]) in a subset of STOMP (NCT02343042) and BOSTON (NCT03110562) study patients treated previously with αCD38 mAbs. Results Sixty-two patients (median 4 prior therapies, range 1 to 11, 90.3% refractory to αCD38 mAb) were included. Overall response rates (ORR) in the SPd, SVd and SKd cohorts were 52.2%, 56.3%, and 65.2%, respectively. Overall response rate was 47.4% among patients who had MM refractory to the third drug reintroduced in the Sd-based triplet. Median progression-free survival in the SPd, SVd, and SKd cohorts was 8.7, 6.7, and 15.0 months, respectively, and median overall survival was 9.6, 16.9, and 33.0 months, respectively. Median time to discontinuation in the SPd, SVd, and SKd cohorts was 4.4, 5.9, and 10.6 months, respectively. The most common hematological adverse events were thrombocytopenia, anemia, and neutropenia. Nausea, fatigue, and diarrhea were primarily grade 1/2. Adverse events were generally manageable with standard supportive care and dose modifications. Conclusion Selinexor-based regimens may offer effective and well-tolerated therapy to patients with relapsed and/or refractory MM who had disease previously exposed or refractory to αCD38 mAb therapy and could help address the unmet clinical need in these high-risk patients

A pharmacokinetics and safety phase 1/1b study of oral ixazomib in patients with multiple myeloma and severe renal impairment or end-stage renal disease requiring haemodialysis.

Renal impairment (RI) is a major complication of multiple myeloma (MM). This study aimed to characterize the single-dose pharmacokinetics (PK) of the oral proteasome inhibitor, ixazomib, in cancer patients with normal renal function [creatinine clearance (CrCl) ≥90 ml/min; n = 20), severe RI (CrCl <30 ml/min; n = 14), or end-stage renal disease requiring haemodialysis (ESRD; n = 7). PK and adverse events (AEs) were assessed after a single 3 mg dose of ixazomib. Ixazomib was highly bound to plasma proteins (~99%) in all renal function groups. Unbound and total systemic exposures of ixazomib were 38% and 39% higher, respectively, in severe RI/ESRD patients versus patients with normal renal function. Total ixazomib concentrations were similar in pre- and post-dialyser samples collected from ESRD patients; therefore, ixazomib can be administered without regard to haemodialysis timing. Except for anaemia, the incidence of the most common AEs was generally similar across groups, but grade 3 and 4 AEs were more frequent in the severe RI/ESRD groups versus the normal group (79%/57% vs. 45%), as were serious AEs (43%/43% vs. 15%). The PK and safety results support a reduced ixazomib dose of 3 mg in patients with severe RI/ESRD

CLR 131 (Iopofosine I-131) Treatment in Triple Class Refractory and Beyond Multiple Myeloma Patients: Preliminary Efficacy and Safety Results from the Phase 2 Clover-1 Trial

Abstract Background: Phospholipid ethers (PLE) provide a novel mechanism to target tumor cells. Tumor cells contain increased amounts of lipid rafts in their cell membranes, which are thought to enhance signaling and resist apoptosis. Phospholipid drug conjugates (PDC) are specifically designed to have high affinity for lipid rafts which upon binding results in trans-membrane inversion with the ability to deliver an attached therapeutic directly to the cytosol. Iopofosine I-131 (formerly identified as CLR 131) is a novel PDC delivering I-131 as a targeted tumor cell radiotherapy. Iopofosine I-131 is being examined in relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM) patients through an open-label, Phase 2 trial, CLOVER-1 (NCT02952508). Methods: The primary objective of this study is to determine the safety and efficacy of Iopofosine I-131 in heavily pretreated MM patients. Eligibility criteria for MM patients include progression or relapsed disease that is refractory to at least 1 proteasome inhibitor and 1 immunomodulatory agent unless intolerable/ineligible to receive such agents with no upper limit to the number of prior lines of therapy. Iopofosine I-131 is administered in up to 4 IV infusions (15-20 min) over 3 months, with doses given 1-2 weeks apart each cycle for a maximum of 2 cycles, along with dexamethasone 40 mg weekly (20 mg in patients &gt; 75), for up to 12 weeks. Following iopofosine I-131 administration, no other antineoplastic or targeted therapy was given until clinically indicated by the investigator. Adverse events (AEs) are graded by NCI-CTCAE v4.03; responses are assessed by the 2016 International Myeloma Working Group criteria. Results: Eleven patients with at least triple class refractory (immunomodulatory agent, proteasome inhibitor and monoclonal antibody) MM have been enrolled in this Phase 2 study with data current as of 28 May 2021. Patients had a median age of 72 (range 34-77), mean prior regimens of 7.2 (range 3-17) and received a mean total body dose of 75.4 mCi (range 59.7-118.7) of iopofosine I-131. The overall response rate (ORR) was 45.5% (5/11), the clinical benefit rate (CBR) was 72.7% (8/11) and disease control rate (DCR) was 100%. Median progression free survival (PFS) was 3.4 months. In a subset of patients who are quad/penta drug refractory, efficacy increased with an ORR of 80.0% (4/5) and CBR of 100% (5/5). The primary treatment emergent AEs in patients with MM included cytopenias (87.5%), in line with prior experience with iopofosine I-131. The most commonly observed cytopenias included Grade 3 or 4 thrombocytopenia (62.5%), anemia (62.5%), neutropenia (62.5%) and decreased white blood cell count (50%). There were no infusion-related reactions or AEs. Conclusions: Initial results for iopofosine I-131 show efficacy with a promising ORR of 45.5% and a CBR or 72.7% in heavily pretreated triple class refractory multiple myeloma patients. Interestingly, iopofosine I-131 showed its highest efficacy in patients that were quad/penta drug refractory with ORR of 80%, highlighting its potential as a later line therapy. Iopofosine I-131 is a novel cancer radiotherapeutic that may provide benefit to patients that are refractory/unresponsive to traditional MM therapies. CLOVER-1 is actively enrolling MM patients that are at least triple class refractory across the United States.

Integrating Touchscreen-Based Geriatric Assessment and Frailty Screening for Adults With Multiple Myeloma to Drive Personalized Treatment Decisions

Patients were white (72%; n = 86), mean age was 72 years (range, 65-85 years), and averaged 7.71 minutes (range, 2-17 minutes) for survey completion. Providers averaged 3.2 minutes (range, 1-10 minutes) to review mGA results. Using International Myeloma Working Group frailty score, patients were fit (39%; n = 64), intermediate fit (33%; n = 55), or frail (28%; n = 46). Providers selected more aggressive treatments in 16.3% of patients and decreased treatment intensity in 34% of patients; treatment intensification was more common for fit patients and milder treatments for frail patients (χ2 = 20.02; P < .0001). Transplant eligibility significantly correlated with fit status and transplant ineligibility with frail status (P = .004). Outcomes on 144 patients 3 months post study visit showed 19.4% (n = 28) had grade ≥ 3 hematologic toxicities, 38.9% (n = 56) had dose modifications, and 18% (n = 26) had early therapy cessation.12 month embargo; first published online 25 November 2019This item from the UA Faculty Publications collection is made available by the University of Arizona with support from the University of Arizona Libraries.
