Purpose

This is a randomized, Phase 2 study involving two arms evaluating the efficacy and safety of ixazomib alone and the combination of both ixazomib and lenalidomide as maintenance therapy for patients with multiple myeloma who have achieved at least partial response (PR) or better after receiving a bortezomib- and lenalidomide-containing combination front-line therapy.

Detailed Description

      Patients who have achieved PR or better on a bortezomib- and lenalidomide-containing
      combination therapy will be randomized to receive maintenance therapy with 28-day cycles of
      either ixazomib alone or the combination of ixazomib and lenalidomide. If steroids were part
      of the patient's qualifying regimen, steroids will be administered using the same drug(s),
      schedule(s) and dose(s) as those of the last treatment cycle of the bortezomib-,
      lenalidomide- and steroid-containing regimen. Ixazomib will be administered per orem (PO) at
      3 mg on days 1, 8 and 15 of 28-day cycles. Lenalidomide will be taken PO, once daily at the
      same dose as the last treatment on days 1 through 28 of the 28-day cycles. Patients will
      start the randomized maintenance therapy after receiving a minimum of 6 cycles of a
      bortezomib- and lenalidomide-containing combination treatment but may have received up to 8
      cycles if they continued to show improvement in their response after the first 6 cycles.
      During cycle 1, patients will have clinical laboratory tests weekly (days 1, 8, 15 and 22)
      and MM disease assessments on day 22 to monitor for efficacy and potential toxicity.
      Beginning with cycle 2, patients will have clinical laboratory tests performed twice a month
      and MM disease assessments once a month. Patients will be treated until documentation of PD
      or if subject meets any of the treatment discontinuation criteria.

The prescribed dose administration of lenalidomide in this study is the same as the dose of the patient's front-line treatment taken in the last treatment cycle unless otherwise clinically indicated per investigator's discretion, taken orally on days 1-28 of a 28-day cycle. If patient was receiving lenalidomide at a higher dose than 10 mg, then the dose of lenalidomide on this study will be adjusted to 10 mg daily on days 1-28 of a 28-day cycle

               -  Hemoglobin ≥ 8.0 g/dL. Use of erythropoietic stimulating factors and red blood
                  cell (RBC) transfusions per institutional guidelines is allowed; however, most
                  recent RBC transfusion must have been at least 7 days prior to obtaining
                  screening hemoglobin or at investigator's discretion.

               -  Total bilirubin less or equal 1.5 times the upper limit of the normal range
                  (ULN).

             completed at least 6 cycles of treatment.

          8. The disease must have reached a plateau phase at the end of front-line treatment as
             demonstrated bythe same response (using IMWG criteria) in three consecutive tests with
             at least three weeks between each test.

          9. Patients must have received frontline treatment within 8 weeks of enrollment.

         12. Patients must voluntarily give written consent before any study related procedure not
             part of standard medical care is performed, with the understanding that consent may be
             withdrawn by the patient at any time without prejudice to future medical care.

         13. Female patients must be postmenopausal for at least 1 year before screening visit OR
             surgically sterile. If patient is female of childbeating potential (FCBP), patient
             must agree to practice two effective methods of contraception, at the same time, from
             the time of signing the informed consent form through 90 days after the last dose of
             study drug. FCBP must also adhere to the guidelines of any treatment-specific
             pregnancy prevention program AND agree to practice true abstinence when this is in
             line with the preferred and usual lifestyle of the subject. Periodic abstinence (e.g.
             calendar, ovulation, symptothermal, post-ovulation methods) and withdrawal are not
             acceptable methods of contraception.

         14. Male patients, even if surgically sterilized (i.e., status post-vasectomy), must agree
             to one of the following:

               -  To practice effective barrier contraception during the entire study treatment
                  period and through 90 days after the last dose of study drug

               -  To practice true abstinence when this is in line with the preferred and usual
                  lifestyle of the subject. Periodic abstinence (e.g., calendar, ovulation,
                  symptothermal, post-ovulation methods) and withdrawal are not acceptable methods
                  of contraception.

        Exclusion Criteria:
