Multicenter Phase I Study on the Safety, Anti-tumor Activity and Pharmacology of IPH2101, a Human Monoclonal Anti-KIR, Combined With Lenalidomide in Patients With Multiple Myeloma Experiencing a First or Second Relapse
Inclusion Criteria:
1. Signed informed consent obtained before any trial-related activities
2. Progressive disease or relapse of multiple myeloma (according to the IMWG definition)
after one or two prior therapeutic treatments or regimens for multiple myeloma that
achieved a response duration of at least 6 months
3. Prior therapeutic treatment regimens may have included Thalidomide and Lenalidomide.
Regarding patients previously treated by Lenalidomide, only patients who achieved at
least Partial Response duration of at least 6 months can be included. The patient
must not have discontinued treatment due to Lenalidomide intolerance.
4. Measurable disease, as indicated by one or more of the following:
- Serum M-protein ≥ 0.5 g/dL If Serum Protein Electrophoresis is felt to be
unreliable for routine M-protein measurement (particularly for patients with IgA
MM), then quantitative immunoglobulin levels can be accepted).
- Urine Bence-Jones protein ≥ 200 mg/24 h
- Involved serum Free Light Chains (sFLC) level ≥ 10 mg/dl ( ≥ 100 mg/l) provided
sFLC ratio is abnormal (<0.26 or >1.65)
5. ECOG performance status of 0, 1 or 2
6. Clinical laboratory values at screening
- Calculated creatinine clearance (according to MDRD) > 60 ml/min
- Platelet ≥ 75 x 109 /l for patients with < 50% BM plasma cells, and ≥
30 x 109 /l for patients with > 50% BM plasma cells
- ANC > 1 x 109 /l
- Bilirubin levels < 1.5 ULN ; ALT and AST < 3 ULN (grade 1 NCI)
7. Females of childbearing potential (FCBP)† must have a negative serum or urine
pregnancy test with a sensitivity of at least 50 mIU/mL within 10 - 14 days prior to
and again within 24 hours of prescribing Lenalidomide (prescriptions must be filled
within 7 days) and must either commit to continued abstinence from heterosexual
intercourse or begin TWO acceptable methods of birth control, one highly effective
method and one additional effective method AT THE SAME TIME, at least 28 days before
she starts taking Lenalidomide. FCBP must also agree to ongoing pregnancy testing.
Men must agree to use a latex condom during sexual contact with a FCBP even if they
have had a successful vasectomy
8. All study participants must be registered into the mandatory RevAssist® program, and
be willing and able to comply with the requirements of RevAssist®.
Exclusion Criteria:
1. Age < 18 years or > 80 years
2. Non secreting multiple myeloma or non measurable disease (< 0.5 g /dL M-Protein in
serum or < 200 mg urinary M-protein / 24 h or <10 mg/dl involved sFLC)
3. Life-threatening conditions related or not to MM relapse
4. Pregnant or breast feeding females. (Lactating females must agree not to breast feed
while taking Lenalidomide)
5. Known hypersensitivity to thalidomide or IMiD®.
6. Use of any investigational agent within the last month
7. Treatment by systemic corticosteroids (except inhaled corticosteroids) or
chemotherapy (including consolidation and maintenance) within the last month (use of
biphosphonates is permitted)
8. Radiotherapy within the last month
9. Primary or associated amyloidosis
10. Peripheral neuropathy of grade ≥ 3 according to the CTCAE of the NCI
11. Abnormal cardiac status with any of the following
- NYHA stage III or IV congestive heart failure
- myocardial infarction within the previous 6 months
- cardiac arrhythmia remaining symptomatic despite treatment
12. Current active infectious disease or positive serology for HIV, HCV or positive Hbs
Antigen
13. History of or current auto-immune disease
14. History of other active malignancy within the past 5 years (apart from basal cell
carcinoma of the skin, or in situ cervix carcinoma)
15. Serious concurrent uncontrolled medical disorder
16. History of allograft or solid organ transplantation
17. Any psychological, familial, sociological or geographical condition potentially
hampering compliance with the study protocol and follow-up schedule
18. Inability to comply with an antithrombotic regimen
