Spots Global Cancer Trial Database for Daratumumab, Azacitidine, and Dexamethasone for Treatment of Patients With Recurrent or Refractory Multiple Myeloma Previously Treated With Daratumumab

Study Description

Brief Summary: This phase II trial studies how well daratumumab, azacitidine, and dexamethasone work in treating patients with multiple myeloma that has come back (recurrent) or has not responded to treatment (refractory) and was previously treated with daratumumab. Daratumumab is an antibody made up of immune cells that attaches to a protein on myeloma cells, called cluster of differentiation 38 (CD38). CD38 is found in higher levels on tumor cells than on normal cells. Daratumumab prevents the growth of tumors who have high levels of CD38 by causing those cells to die. Chemotherapy drugs, such as azacitidine, 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. Dexamethasone is a steroid that helps decrease inflammation and lowers the body's normal immune response to help reduce the effect of any infusion-related reactions. Giving azacitidine may help increase the levels of CD38 on the tumor cells to increase the function of daratumumab to attach to those tumor cells to help destroy them.

Detailed Description: PRIMARY OBJECTIVE: I. To evaluate the efficacy of adding azacitidine to daratumumab and dexamethasone, as measured by the overall response rate in patients with relapsed refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM) previously treated with daratumumab. SECONDARY OBJECTIVES: I. To evaluate the duration of response per International Myeloma Working Group (IMWG) criteria. II. To evaluate the safety and tolerability of azacitidine in combination with daratumumab and dexamethasone. III. To evaluate progression free and overall survival in patients treated with azacitidine in combination with daratumumab and dexamethasone. IV. To assess the changes in CD38 expression on plasma cells after treatment with azacitidine and correlate this change with the depth and duration of response of azacitidine in combination with daratumumab and dexamethasone. OUTLINE: PRE-INDUCTION (CYCLE 0): Patients receive azacitidine intravenously (IV) on days -7 to -3 in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. INDUCTION PHASE (CYCLES 1-2): Patients receive azacitidine IV on days 22-26 and dexamethasone IV or orally (PO) and daratumumab subcutaneously (SC) over 3-5 minutes on days 1, 8, 15, and 22. Treatment repeats every 28 days for up to 2 cycles in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. CONSOLIDATION PHASE (CYCLES 3-6): Patients receive azacitidine IV on days 22-26 of cycle 3 and on days 1-5 of cycles 5-6 and dexamethasone IV or PO and daratumumab SC over 3-5 minutes on days 1 and 15. Treatment repeats every 28 days for up to 4 cycles in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. MAINTENANCE PHASE (CYCLES 7+): Patients receive azacitidine IV on days 1-5 and dexamethasone IV or PO and daratumumab SC over 3-5 minutes on day 1. Cycles repeat every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up every 4 weeks for up to 1 year.
