Trial Review

Please note the ANZCTR will be unattended from Friday 20 December 2024 for the holidays. The Registry will re-open on Tuesday 7 January 2025. Submissions and updates will not be processed during that time.

Outcomes
Primary outcome [1] 299258 0
To establish the clinical benefit rate (CBR = minimal response + partial response + very good partial response + complete response) of KappaMab alone and in combination with lenalidomide and dexamethasone (MRd) in RRMM

Outcome assessed through bone marrow and blood chemistry analysis and medical record review.
Timepoint [1] 299258 0
Response assessment made every 4 weeks on study until 12 months after recruitment of final study subject
Secondary outcome [1] 326662 0
To determine the safety of KappaMab in combination with lenalidomide and low dose dexamethasone (MRd) in relapsed refractory multiple myeloma, in particular, incidence of immunological AEs and development of anti-human chimera antibodies (HACA).

Antibodies and adverse reactions assessed through blood and other medical testing and observation. AEs may possibly include infusion related reactions, allergic reactions, blood related reactions and heart, musculoskeletal and skin problems.
Timepoint [1] 326662 0
Response assessment made every 4 weeks on study until 12 months after recruitment of final study subject.
Secondary outcome [2] 326663 0
To evaluate the kinetics of response and loss of response (time to response, time to disease progression [PFS], overall survival [OS]) between the group of patients receiving single agent KappaMab vs. the group receiving MRd. Responses assessed through bone marrow and blood chemistry analysis and medical record review.
Timepoint [2] 326663 0
Response assessment made every 4 weeks on study until 12 months after recruitment of final study subject.
Secondary outcome [3] 326664 0
To obtain mechanistic correlates of immunological synergies between KappaMab and lenalidomide as biomarkers of therapeutic responses. Exploratory biomarkers will include: induction of KMA expression, baseline and dynamic expression of key IMiD targets (e.g. cereblon, IKZF1, IKZF3, cMYC, IRF4) and modulation of MM immunogenicity (by FACS analysis for HLA class I/II expression, co-stimulatory markers and checkpoint regulators including PD1/PDL1), BM cytotoxic effector cell populations for quantitation and functional assays of T- and NK- function including autologous PC co-cultures and chromium release assays vs. human myeloma cell lines and K562 targets.
Timepoint [3] 326664 0
Every 12 weeks on study until 12 months after recruitment of final study subject
Secondary outcome [4] 326665 0
To correlate clinical responses with biomarkers of IMiD activity to establish 'on target' mechanisms of synergy in vivo, ie: IMiD-related MM effects and non-MM autonomous activities.

Exploratory biomarkers will include: induction of KMA expression, baseline and dynamic expression of key IMiD targets (e.g. cereblon, IKZF1, IKZF3, cMYC, IRF4) and modulation of MM immunogenicity (by FACS analysis for HLA class I/II expression, co-stimulatory markers and checkpoint regulators including PD1/PDL1), BM cytotoxic effector cell populations for quantitation and functional assays of T- and NK- function including autologous PC co-cultures and chromium release assays vs. human myeloma cell lines and K562 targets.

Clinical responses as per International Myeloma Working Group response criteria assessed through bone marrow and blood chemistry analysis and medical record review.
Timepoint [4] 326665 0
Every 12 weeks on study until 12 months after recruitment of final study subject
Secondary outcome [5] 326667 0
To establish novel pharmacodynamic (PD) biomarkers of MRd (KappaMab, Lenalidomide and Dexamethasone) activity, patterns of clonal evolution during therapy and candidate mechanisms of MRd resistance. This is an exploratory outcome examining dynamic changes in SFLC (‘Flare’) and selected cytokines (e.g. HGF, CXCL9, CXCL10, CCL27 and MIF) correlated with clinical response. Assessment through lab analysis of blood samples.
Timepoint [5] 326667 0
Every 12 weeks on study until 12 months after recruitment of final study subject or disease progression.
