Description:
Multiple myeloma (MM), a plasma cell disorder, is the second most common hematologic
malignancy in the U.S. No standard curative therapy has yet been found. A variety of
therapeutic measures including high dose melphalan, induction therapy, and continuous therapy
have been used but the goal of complete response without relapse has not been achieved. More
active treatment regimens and better tools for response assessment are needed.

Purpose
Multiple myeloma (MM), a plasma cell disorder, is the second most common hematologic
malignancy in the U.S. No standard curative therapy has yet been found. A variety of
therapeutic measures including high dose melphalan, induction therapy, and continuous therapy
have been used but the goal of complete response without relapse has not been achieved. More
active treatment regimens and better tools for response assessment are needed.
Detailed Description
This trial will assess the safety and efficacy of an induction therapy using the combination
of dexamethasone, lenalidomide (revlimid), daratumumab (Darzalex) and carfilzomib (Kyprolis)
to treat patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma. The therapy with KRdD (Kyprolis,
Revlimid, dexamethasone, Darzalex) will be followed by autologous hematopoietic cell
transplantation (auto-HCT) and KRdD consolidation. Duration of therapy will be guided by
eradication of minimal residual disease (MRD). The hypothesis is that the KRdD therapy
particularly in combination with the auto-HCT will be safe and lead to deep remission.
Patients who become MRD- will discontinue therapy (no maintenance therapy) and be actively
monitored for resurgence of MRD or clinical relapse.

Following induction therapy, auto-HCT is done (consolidation 1), then up to two 4-cycle blocks of KRd-Dara consolidation (consolidations 2 and 3). Minimum residual disease (MRD) checked after each phase. Patients with confirmed MRD(-) at or after consolidation 1 will not undergo maintenance and will be actively monitored for resurgence of MRD or clinical relapse. After consolidation if MRD+ patients will undergo standard of care lenalidomide maintenance. | - KRdD followed by auto-HCT
