Purinostat Mesylate Combined With Pomalidomide Capsules and Low-dose Dexamethasone in Patients With Relapsed or Refractory Multiple Myeloma

Recruiting now · Phase 1/Phase 2

Conditions studied: Relapsed or Refractory Multiple Myeloma (RRMM)

In brief

Primary Purpose Phase Ib. To determine the Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) and establish the Recommended Phase IIa Dose (RP2D) of Purinostat Mesylate for Injection combined with fixed-dose Pomalidomide Capsules and Dexamethasone in patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma. Phase IIa. To further evaluate the safety and tolerability of Purinostat Mesylate for Injection at the RP2D combined with fixed-dose Pomalidomide Capsules and Dexamethasone in patients with relapsed and refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM). Secondary Objectives Phase Ib 1. To evaluate the safety and tolerability of Purinostat Mesylate for Injection combined with fixed-dose Pomalidomide Capsules and Dexamethasone in the treatment of relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma. 2. To assess the pharmacokinetic (PK) parameters of the combination therapy in patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma. 3. To observe the preliminary efficacy of the combination therapy in patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma. Phase IIa 1. To evaluate the preliminary efficacy of the combination therapy in patients with relapsed and refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM). 2. To characterize the population pharmacokinetic (PPK) profile of the combination therapy in patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM).

Diagnosed with multiple myeloma (MM) by reference to the diagnostic criteria of the Chinese Guidelines for the Diagnosis and Treatment of Multiple Myeloma (Revised 2022);
Those who have received at least one line of prior systemic antimyeloma therapy (which must include lenalidomide and proteasome inhibitors; see Appendix 4 for counts of myeloma treatment lines) and meet the definition of relapse or refractory; Definition of relapse: disease progression that occurs at least 60 days from the last treatment after the efficacy of a prior treatment regimen was evaluated at MR or better (except for those who relapsed more than 1 year after treatment); Definition of refractory: progression during prior therapy or progression within 60 days of the last treatment; or failure to achieve MR or better after at least 2 prior courses of therapy; or treatment intolerance.
Age 18-75 years, male or female, if of childbearing potential subjects should be on effective contraception and must agree to comply with all contraceptive requirements:
Females of childbearing potential must agree to and comply with the contraceptive measures specified in the protocol: beginning 4 weeks prior to treatment with this product, two reliable methods of contraception are required concurrently for the duration of the treatment, during the dose suspension, and for 4 weeks after termination of the treatment (one highly effective method of contraception-tubal ligation, intrauterine device, hormonal (contraceptive pills, injections, patches, vaginal rings, or implants), or partner's vasectomy, and another effective contraceptive method - male rubber or synthetic condom, diaphragm or cervical cap). Effective contraception is needed even with a history of infertility unless due to hysterectomy; 2) Men of childbearing potential must use a rubber or synthetic condom at all times during sexual contact with women of childbearing potential beginning 4 weeks prior to treatment with this product, during the treatment period, during the dose suspension period, and for 4 weeks after termination of treatment, even if they have had a successful vasectomy; 4. Subjects with multiple myeloma who have measurable M protein, i.e., at least one of the following 3 measurements:
Serum M protein ≥ 0.5 g/dL (5 g/L);
Urine M protein ≥ 200 mg/24h;
Serum free light chain assay: in the case of an abnormal serum free light chain ratio (less than 0.26 or greater than 1.65), an affected free light chain level ≥10mg/dL (100mg/L); 5. Hematologic fulfillment of the following conditions:
ANC ≥ 1.0 x 109/L (without granulocyte colony-stimulating factor within 7 days), with no specific requirement for neutrophil count when ≥ 50% of the bone marrow is plasma cells; 2) PLT ≥75 × 109/L (no platelet transfusion or use of thrombopoietin within 7 days), and platelets ≥50 × 109/L were eligible for enrollment when ≥50% of plasma cells were present in the bone marrow; 3) Hemoglobin ≥ 80 g/L (no red blood cell suspension infusion or use of erythropoietin within 7 days); 6. Liver and kidney function tests fulfill the following conditions:
TBIL ≤ 1.5 x ULN;
ALT and AST are ≤ 2.5 x ULN;
Glomerular filtration rate (GFR) ≥ 30mL/min/1.73m2 (Cockcroft-Gault formula) without the effects of dialysis therapy; 7. Ability to receive and have access to antithrombotic medications such as low molecular heparin sodium, heparin, warfarin or aspirin; 8. An ECOG (Appendix 2) score of 0-2 and an expected survival of ≥12 weeks; 9. Subjects voluntarily enrolled in the study and signed an informed consent form.
