A Study to Investigate the Safety and Efficacy of Belantamab for the Treatment of Multiple Myeloma When Used as Monotherapy and in Combination Treatments

Recruiting now · Phase 1/Phase 2

Conditions studied: Multiple Myeloma

In brief

The study consists of three parts: Part 1 The primary purpose of this part aims to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and clinical activity of escalating doses of single agent Unconjugated belantamab antibody in participants with refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM) who have received at least 3 prior therapies (4L+). Part 2 The primary purpose of this part is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and clinical activity of different doses of unconjugated belantamab antibody in combination with a fixed dose of Belantamab mafodotin (delivered as separate drugs) in participants with RRMM who have received at least 3 prior therapies (4L+). Part 3: The Primary purpose of this part will evaluate the clinical activity of a selected dose of the unconjugated belantamab antibody in combination with the pomalidomide-dexamethasone (Pd) standard of care (SoC) backbone. The study will focus on participants with multiple myeloma who have undergone at least one prior line of therapy, including treatment with lenalidomide.

Who can join

Age: 18 and older. Sex: any. Healthy volunteers: not accepted.

You may qualify if…

• Participants at the time of signing the Informed Consent Form (ICF) are at least 18 years old or are of the legal age of consent in the jurisdiction in which the study is taking place.
• Participants who have histologically or cytologically confirmed diagnosis of Multiple Myeloma (MM), as defined by the international myeloma working group (IMWG) and have progressed on or following the last line of treatment
• Part 1 and Part 2: Participants who have received at least 3 prior lines of anti-myeloma treatments, including lenalidomide, a proteasome inhibitor, and an anti-CD38 mAb (either in combination or separately.
• Part 3: Have received at least 1 prior line of treatment anti-myeloma treatments, including lenalidomide. Prior anti-CD38-containing regimen is not mandated, however no more than 70% of participants recruited may be anti-CD38 naïve.
• Participants with a history of Autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT) are eligible for study participation provided the following eligibility criteria are met:
• transplant was greater than (>)100 days prior to screening.
• No active bacterial, viral, or fungal infection(s) present
• Eastern cooperative oncology group-performance status (ECOG-PS) of 0 to 2.
• Measurable disease defined as at least ONE of the following:
• Serum M-protein concentration greater than or equal to (>=) 0.5 gram (g)/ deciliter (dL) (>=5 gram/liter [g/L])
• Urine M-protein excretion >=200 mg/24 hours (>=0.2 g/24 hours)
• Serum free light chain (FLC) assay: involved FLC level >=10 mg/dL (>=100 milligrams per liter [mg/L]) and an abnormal serum FLC ratio (less than [<]0.26 or >1.65)
• Have adequate organ system function as defined by the laboratory assessments
• All prior treatment-related toxicities (defined by National Cancer Institute-Common Toxicity Criteria for Adverse Events [NCI-CTCAE], v5.0, 2017) must be Grade less than or equal to (<=)1 at the time of screening except for alopecia (any grade), neuropathy (Grade <=2), or endocrinopathy managed with replacement therapy (any grade).
• Participants or legally authorized representative (LAR) (if applicable per local regulation) capable of giving signed informed consent, which includes compliance with the requirements and restrictions listed in the ICF and in this protocol.
• Contraceptive use by men or women should be consistent with local regulations regarding the methods of contraception for those participating in clinical studies.
• A female participant is eligible to participate if she is not pregnant or breastfeeding, and at least one of the following conditions applies:
• Is NOT a Participant of child-bearing potential (POCBP) or
• Is a POCBP and using a contraceptive method that is highly effective (with a failure rate of <1% per year), preferably with low user dependency during the intervention period and for 4 months after the last dose of study intervention and agrees not to donate eggs (ova, oocytes) for the purpose of reproduction during this period. The investigator should evaluate the effectiveness of the contraceptive method in relationship to the first dose of study intervention.
• Part 3: Due to pomalidomide being a thalidomide analogue with a risk for embryofetal toxicity and prescribed under a pregnancy prevention/controlled distribution program, POCBP will be eligible if they commit either to abstain continuously from heterosexual sexual intercourse or use two methods of reliable birth control (one method that is highly effective plus an additional barrier method), beginning at least 4 weeks prior to initiating treatment with pomalidomide, during therapy, during dose interruptions and continuing for at least 4 weeks following discontinuation of pomalidomide treatment. Thereafter, POCBP must use one contraceptive method that is highly effective (with a failure rate of less than (<)1 percentage (%) per year) for a further 3 months (total 4 months).
• The investigator should evaluate the effectiveness of the contraceptive method in relationship to the first dose of study intervention
• All POCBP must agree not to donate eggs (ova, oocytes) for the purpose of reproduction during this period.
