Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

Overall response rate
3 years

The proportion of patients having achieved at least partial response.

Number of Participants With Stringent Complete Response (sCR)
Landmark evaluations were performed after cycles 4, 8, 12, 18 and 24 (that is, 4, 8, 12, 18 and 24 months)

Response will be determined according to the International Myeloma Working Group (IMWG) response criteria for multiple myeloma. sCR is defined as CR plus : * normal FLC ratio and * absence of clonal cells in bone marrow by immunohistochemistry or 2 - 4 color flow cytometry CR is defined as below : * Negative immunofixation on the serum and urine and * disappearance of any soft tissue plasmacytomas and * \< 5% plasma cells in bone marrow. * In subjects with only FLC disease, a normal FLC ratio of 0.26-1.65 is required.

Number of Participants With MRD-negativity (10^-5) After C8 Elo-KRd
Landmark evaluations were performed after cycle 8

Subjects will be tested for Minimal Residual Disease (MRD) by Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) and flow cytometry after cycle 8. The flow cytometry analysis procedure used to determine MRD is performed on a NAVIOS FLOW CYTOMETER SYSTEM manufactured by BECKMAN COULTER, INC., using a laboratory developed assay. The Premarket Notification 510(k) (Number K130373) for the device can be found using the following link. https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfpmn/pmn.cfm?ID=K130373.

ArmTypeDescription
Carfilzomib, elotuzumab, dexamethasoneEXPERIMENTALCarfilzomib 70 milligram(mg)/m2 iv (56 mg/m2 for first five patients for cycles 1-2) once weekly, on days 1, 8 and 15 (cycles 1-8), from cycle 9 on days 1 and 15 until progression or toxicity; elotuzumab 10 mg/kg iv on days 1,8,15 for cycles 1-2, on days 1and 15 from cycle 3 until progression or toxicity; dexamethasone 40 mg weekly (shared to po and iv)
Elo-KRd regimenEXPERIMENTALSubjects will be tested for Minimal Residual Disease (MRD) by Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) and flow cytometry after cycles 8 and 12. A treatment decision was made after cycle 12 based on these results. There are three outcomes based on the IFM trial (Avet-Loiseau et al., 2015): 1) if the subject is MRD-negative by NGS after cycle 8 and 12, the subject went on E-Rd maintenance until disease progression. 2) If the subject is MRD-positive after cycle 8 but MRD-negative after cycle 12, 6 more cycles of E-KRd was given and at the end of 18 cycles, the subject went on E-Rd maintenance until disease progression. 3) Finally, if the subject is MRD-positive at both instances, 12 additional cycles of E-KRd was given and at the end of 24 cycles total, the subject went on E-Rd maintenance until disease progression.
