E.2 Objective of the trial |
E.2.1 | Main objective of the trial |
The primary objective is to compare the efficacy (rate of very good partial response [VGPR] or better as best response as defined by the International Myeloma Working Group [IMWG] criteria) of Dara-SC in combination with Kd with the efficacy of Kd in participants with relapsed refractory multiple myeloma who were previously exposed to daratumumab intravenous (Dara-IV) to evaluate daratumumab retreatment.
|
|
E.2.2 | Secondary objectives of the trial |
The secondary objectives are:
• To further characterize the efficacy (progression-free survival [PFS], overall survival [OS], overall response rate [ORR], rate of complete response[CR]/stringent complete response [sCR]) of Dara-SC in combination with Kd
• To evaluate the minimal residual disease (MRD) negativity rate and durability of MRD negativity status
• To characterize the safety of Dara-SC in combination with Kd
• To determine time to next treatment
• To evaluate the pharmacokinetics (PK)of Dara-SC
• To determine the immunogenicity of daratumumab recombinant human hyaluronidase PH20 (rHuPH20)

E.3 | Principal inclusion criteria |
Each potential participant must satisfy all of the following criteria to be enrolled in the study:
1. At least 18 years of age.
2. Documented multiple myeloma as defined by the criteria below:
Multiple myeloma diagnosis according to the International Myeloma Working Group (IMWG) diagnostic criteria.
Measurable disease at screening as defined by any of the following: Serum M-protein level ≥1.0 g/dL in participants with immunoglobulin G (IgG) type, or serum M-protein level ≥0.5 g/dL in participants with non- IgG type, or urine M-protein level ≥200 mg/24 hours; or Light chain multiple myeloma without measurable disease in the serum or the urine: Serum immunoglobulin free light chain (FLC) ≥10 mg/dL and abnormal serum immunoglobulin kappa lambda FLC ratio.
3. Evidence of a response (partial response or better based on investigator’s determination of response by IMWG criteria) to daratumumab-containing IV therapy with response duration of at least 4 months.
4. Relapsed or refractory disease as defined below:
Relapsed disease is defined as an initial response to previous treatment, followed by confirmed PD by IMWG criteria >60 days after cessation of treatment. Refractory disease is defined as <25% reduction in M-protein or confirmed PD by IMWG criteria during previous treatment or ≤60 days after cessation of treatment. 5. Received 1 or 2 prior line(s) of treatment of which one contained Dara-IV, and completed Dara-IV at least 3 months prior to randomization. A single line of therapy may consist of 1 or more agents, and may include induction, hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, and maintenance therapy. Radiotherapy, bisphosphonate, or a single short course of corticosteroids (no more than the equivalent of dexamethasone 40 mg/day for 4 days) would not be considered prior lines of therapy.
6. ECOG Performance Status score of 0, 1, or 2.
7. Pretreatment clinical laboratory values meeting the following criteria during the Screening Phase:
a) hemoglobin ≥8 g/dL (≥5mmol/L) (without prior RBC transfusion within 7 days before the laboratory test; recombinant human erythropoietin use is permitted);
b) absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥1.0 × 10^9/L (prior growth factor support is permitted but must be without support within the 7 days prior to the laboratory test);
c) platelet count ≥75 ×10^9/L for participants in whom <50% of bone marrow nucleated cells are plasma cells; otherwise platelet count of ≥50×10^9/L. Transfusions are not permitted within 7 days of testing to achieve this minimum platelet count.
d) aspartate aminotransferase (AST) ≤2.5 × upper limit of normal (ULN);
e) alanine aminotransferase (ALT) ≤2.5 × ULN;
f) total bilirubin ≤1.5 × ULN; except in participants with congenital bilirubinemia, such as Gilbert syndrome (in which case direct bilirubin ≤1.5× ULN is required); g) estimated creatinine clearance (CrCl) ≥20mL/min per 1.73m^2. CrCl to be calculated using estimated glomerular filtration rate Modification of Diet in Renal Disease (MDRD) formula.
h) albumin-corrected serum calcium ≤14 mg/dL (≤3.5 mmol/L) or free ionized calcium ≤6.5 mg/dL (≤1.6mmol/L)
8. Women of childbearing potential must commit to either abstain continuously from heterosexual sexual intercourse or to use 2 methods of reliable birth control simultaneously. This includes one highly effective form of contraception (tubal ligation, intrauterine device, hormonal [birth control pills, injections, hormonal patches, vaginal rings or implants] or partner's vasectomy) and one additional effective contraceptive method (male latex or synthetic condom, diaphragm, or cervical cap). Contraception must begin 4 weeks prior to dosing. Reliable contraception is indicated even where there has been a history of infertility, unless due to hysterectomy.
9. Women of childbearing potential must have a negative urine or serum pregnancy test at screening within 14 days prior to randomization.
10. Each participant must sign an informed consent form (ICF) (or their legally acceptable representative must sign) indicating that he or she understands the purpose of, and procedures required for, the study and is willing to participate in the study. Participants must be willing and able to adhere to the prohibitions and restrictions specified in this protocol, as referenced in the ICF

4. Discontinuation of Dara-IV due to a daratumumab-related AE.
5. Allergies, hypersensitivity, or intolerance to daratumumab, hyaluronidase, mAbs, human proteins, or their excipients (refer to the IB), or known sensitivity to mammalian derived products. Known history of allergy to Captisol (a cyclodextrin derivative used to solubilize carfilzomib).
6. Contraindications to the use of any components of the backbone treatment regimens, per local prescribing information.
7. Received an investigational intervention (including investigational vaccines) or used an invasive investigational medical device within 4 weeks before randomization (except for investigational anti-myeloma treatments, which cannot be taken within 2 weeks or 5PK half-lives of the treatment from the first dose of daratumumab, whichever is longer, before the date of randomization).

11. Received anti-myeloma treatment within 2 weeks or 5 PK half-lives of the treatment from the first dose of daratumumab, whichever is longer, before the date of randomization. The only exception is emergency use of a short course of corticosteroids (equivalent of dexamethasone 40 mg/day for a maximum of 4 days) up to 21 days before treatment. A list of anti-myeloma treatments with the corresponding PK half-lives is provided in the Site Investigational Product Procedures Manual.
