Summary

This study is designed to evaluate the safety and to determine the maximum tolerated dose of carfilzomib + lenalidomide in combination with dexamethasone in newly diagnosed Multiple Myeloma patients who have not received treatment.

Detailed description

During the Phase I portion of this clinical trial, the dose of Revlimid® and carfilzomib will be increased until the best and safest amount (or dose) is identified in combination with standard doses of Revlimid® and dexamethasone. "Investigational" means that the drug combination is still being studied and that research doctors are trying to find out more about it such as the safest dose to use, the side effects it may cause and how effective the Revlimid® and carfilzomib and dexamethasone investigational combination is for treating newly diagnosed multiple myeloma. In this clinical trial we are looking for the highest dose of the combination that can be given safely and see how well it works as a combination in newly diagnosed patients. The drug, carfilzomib, has not yet been approved by the FDA (U.S. Food and Drug Administration). Revlimid® and Dexamethasone have been approved by the FDA. The drugs have not been approved in this combination for use for your type of cancer or any other type of cancer. Carfilzomib is being researched to treat multiple myeloma. Dexamethasone is commonly used, either alone, or in combination with other drugs, to treat multiple myeloma. Revlimid® is currently approved by the US FDA in combination with dexamethasone for the treatment of patients with multiple myeloma who have received at least 1 prior therapy. After the Phase I clinical trial defines the safest doses of Revlimid® and carfilzomib and dexamethasone that can be taken together, the research study will move on to its second portion, a Phase II clinical trial. The Phase II portion of the clinical trial will test the clinical effectiveness of the best dose combination of the three drugs.

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
DRUG	carfilzomib, lenalidomide plus dexamethasone	Phase I: Carfilzomib will be administered at the dosage assigned for the subject's cohort as an IV infusion on Days 1, 2, 8, 9, 15, and 16 of a 28-day cycle for Cycles 1 - 8 (induction) and on Days 1, 2, 15, and 16 of a 28-day cycle for Cycles 9+ (maintenance). Lenalidomide will be administered PO daily at 25 mg on Days 1- 21 of the 28-day cycle for Cycles 1 - 8+. Dexamethasone 40 mg will be administered PO or IV between 30 minutes and 4 hours preceding the carfilzomib push.
DRUG	carfilzomib, lenalidomide plus dexamethasone	Phase II: Carfilzomib will be administered at the Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) established in Phase I as an IV infusion on Days 1, 2, 8, 9, 15, and 16 of a 28-day cycle for Cycles 1 - 8 (induction) and on Days 1, 2, 15, and 16 of a 28-day cycle for Cycles 9+ (maintenance). Lenalidomide will be administered PO daily at 25 mg on Days 1- 21 of the 28-day cycle for Cycles 1 - 8+. Dexamethasone will be administered PO or IV between 30 minutes and 4 hours preceding the carfilzomib push on Days 1, 8, 15, and 22 as follows: Cycles 1-4: 40 mg; Cycles 5-8: 20 mg; and Cycles 9 and higher: 10 mg.
