1. Immune monitoring by flow cytometry Evaluation of immune-status during therapy with Iberdomide maintenance by means of assessment of cellular subsets (T cells, NK cells, B cells, NK T cells, and immune suppressor cells including Tregs, Bregs, and MDSCs) in longitudinally obtained blood and bone marrow samples (both collected at entry, C2D15 – blood only, after 6 and 12 months of Iberdomide treatment and at the time of progression); Determine T-cell differentiation subsets, the activation status of immune cells, and evaluate expression of immune check points such as PD-1, CTLA-4, LAG-3, and TIM-3 on these immune cells, and analyze expression of several immune-regulatory proteins on MM cells (PD-L1, CD47, HVEM and Gal9). Immune cell subset frequencies and expression levels of proteins will be related to outcome with iberdomide maintenance (response, PFS and OS). Analysis of the immune profile in blood and bone marrow at the time of relapse. Changes in the immune-status will also be correlated with response and survival In addition compare immune profile at the time of relapse with the immune profile at baseline to gain a better understanding of mechanisms of resistance. Differential changes in immune profile between cohorts may be helpful in selecting the optimal dose of iberdomide for further evaluation in a phase 3 study with iberdomide maintenance. Also a comparative analysis with immune monitoring data obtained in the dose-escalation study with iberdomide will be done (CC-220-MM- 001).
2. Monitoring immune competence at the single cell level: Single cell RNA sequencing will be used to longitudinally follow up the bone marrow stromal cells and immune cells from patients on Iberdomide-based therapy to chart the response of the micro- environment to Iberdomide at single cell resolution. Patients will be monitored in a sequential manner (entry, 6 months, 12 months, progression) to compare the inflammatory bone marrow environment in patients that remain MRD negative under Iberdomide treatment vs patients that fail to sustain MRD negativity and progress under treatment. Viably frozen cells will be collected and retrospectively 10 patients in each group will be selected to analyze the inflammatory environment sequentially at 4 time points. For the experiments proposed patients that have reached MRD negativity at the first timepoint during Iberdomide treatment will be selected. The goal of these experiments will be to determine alterations in the inflammatory stromal cell profiles related to sustained MRD-negativity during Iberdomide treatment, and relate this to bone marrow immune competence as determined by MDSC presence, CD8 T cell exhaustion and immune cell transcriptome.

E.5.2 | Secondary end point(s) |
TTP will be measured by protocol from the date of start of therapy and according to ITT from the date of eligibility confirmation to the date of first observation of PD, or deaths for PD. Subjects who have not progressed or who withdraw from the study or die from causes other than PD will be censored at the time of the last disease assessment. Subjects lost to FU will also be censored at the time of last complete disease assessment.
PFS will be measured by protocol from the date of start of therapy and according to ITT from the date of eligibility confirmation to the date of first observation of PD, or death from any cause as an event. Subjects who have not progressed or who withdraw from the study or who were lost to FU will be censored at the time of the last disease assessment.
TNT will be measured by protocol from the date of start of therapy and according to ITT from the date of eligibility confirmation to the date of next anti-myeloma therapy. Death due to any cause before starting therapy will be considered an event. Subjects who have not progressed or who withdraw from the study will be censored at the time of the last disease assessment. Subjects lost to FU will also be censored at the time of last contact.
PFS2 will be measured by protocol from the date of start of therapy and according to ITT from the date of eligibility confirmationto the date of observation of second disease progression (i.e. progression after the second line of therapy) or death to any cause as an event. In case of date of second progression is not available, date of start of third line treatment can be used. Subjects who have not progressed or who withdraw from the study will be censored at the time of the last complete disease assessment. All subjects who were lost to follow-up prior to the end of the study, have not progressed, and are still alive will also be censored at the time of last contact.
OS is defined by protocol from the date of start of therapy and according to ITT from the date of eligibility confirmation to the date of death, regardless cause of death. Subjects who withdraw consent will be censored at the time of withdrawal. Subjects who are still alive at the cut-off date of final analysis will be censored at the date of last contact. Subjects lost to FU will also be censored at the time of last contact.
Response rate (sCR, CR, VGPR) will be evaluated according to IMWG Response criteria
Rate of NGF Minimal residual disease (MRD) conversion from positive to negative
The MRD conversion rate at 6 months is determined as the proportion of subjects with MRD negativity (≥10-5 sensitivity level, by NGF) after 6 months converted from status as Positive at screening.
The MRD conversion rate at 12 months is determined as the proportion of subjects with MRD negativity (≥10-5 sensitivity level, by NGF) after 12 months converted from status as Positive at screening. Subjects who withdraw from the study or are lost to follow up before post 12 months MRD evaluation, the best MRD assessment will be considered.
The best MRD conversion rate within 12 months is determined as the proportion of subjects with MRD negativity (≥10-5 sensitivity level, by NGF) within 12 months converted from status as Positive at screening. The best MRD assessment will be considered. Subjects who withdraw from the study or are lost to follow up before MRD evaluation, the best MRD assessment will be considered.
The analysis of safety as defined by type, frequency and severity will be done primarily by tabulation of the incidence of AEs as defined by the National Cancer Institute (NCI) Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE), version 5.0. In the by-subject analysis, a subject having the same event more than once will be counted only once. AEs will be summarized by worst CTCAE grade
Dose reduction will be done primarily by tabulation of the incidence of subject with at least one dose reduction and causes.
Relative dose will be evaluated consider the ratio between the administered and the planned dose.
Time to discontinuation for toxicity will be measured from the date of first dose of study drugs to the date of discontinuation due to AE or Death for AE/SPM. Subjects who discontinued drugs due to PD, or death for cause other than AE/SPM will be considered a competing event. Subjects has not discontinued and are still alive and on treatment at the cut-off date of final analysis will be censored at the cut-off date. All subjects who were lost to FU will also be censored at the time of last contact.
Quality of life defined by EORTC QLQ-C30.
Determine whether tumor response and outcome (PFS, PFS2, TTP, TNT and OS) may change in subgroups with different prognosis according to current prognostic factors. |
