BACKGROUND: Patients with relapsed and refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM) who progress on immunomodulatory agents, proteasome inhibitors (PIs), and anti-CD38 antibodies have poor outcomes, highlighting the need for novel targets for the disease. The BCMA-directed CAR T cell therapy ide-cel previously demonstrated deep, durable responses in heavily pretreated patients with RRMM (Raje N, et al. N Engl J Med. 2019;380:1726-1737; Munshi NC, et al. J Clin Oncol. 2020;38[suppl] [abstract 8503]). In the pivotal phase 2 KarMMa study, overall response rate (ORR), complete response rate, and median duration of response (DOR) were 73%, 33%, and 10.7 months, respectively, across the target dose levels of 150−450 × 106 CAR+ T cells, and 82%, 39%, and 11.3 months at the highest target dose of 450 × 106 CAR+ T cells. In order to examine the effect of ide-cel as an earlier line of treatment, the multicenter, randomized, open-label, phase 3 study, KarMMa-3, was opened to compare ide-cel vs standard regimens in patients whose disease is refractory to the last line of therapy.
STUDY DESIGN: Patients with RRMM who had received 2-4 prior regimens (including ≥ 2 consecutive cycles of daratumumab [DARA], an immunomodulatory agent, and a PI [individually or in combinations]) are randomized 2:1 to receive ide-cel or one of the following standard regimens based on the patient’s most recent regimen and investigator discretion: DARA + pomalidomide (POM) + dexamethasone (DEX; DPd), DARA + bortezomib + DEX (DVd), ixazomib + lenalidomide + DEX (IRd), carfilzomib + DEX (Kd), or elotuzumab + POM + DEX (EPd). Patients in the standard-regimen arm of this study are eligible to receive ide-cel after confirmed evidence of progressive disease. Randomization is stratified by age (< 65 vs ≥ 65 years), number of prior regimens (2 vs 3 or 4), and high-risk cytogenetics (t(4;14), t(14;16), or del(17p); yes vs no).
Patients must be ≥ 18 years of age, have Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status of 0-1, have disease that is refractory to the last treatment regimen, and have achieved minimal or better response to ≥ 1 prior regimen. Patients with nonsecretory myeloma, central nervous system involvement, prior allogeneic stem cell transplant, prior BCMA-targeted therapy, or prior gene or cellular therapy for cancer are excluded.
Ide-cel is manufactured following leukapheresis and then infused (at dose levels from 150 to 450 × 106, but targeting 450 × 106, CAR+ T cells) after 2 days of rest following lymphodepletion with 3 days of fludarabine 30 mg/m2 + cyclophosphamide 300 mg/m2. Up to 1 cycle of DPd, DVd, IRd, Kd, or EPd may be given as bridging therapy while ide-cel is being manufactured.
The primary endpoint is progression-free survival. The key secondary endpoints are ORR and overall survival. Other secondary endpoints include minimal residual disease, DOR, safety, pharmaco*kinetics, and quality of life. Immunogenicity and biomarkers are exploratory endpoints.
KarMMa-3 is registered at ClinicalTrials.gov: NCT03651128.
