•Real-world patients with lenalidomide-refractory MM and 1 to 3 prior LOT progress rapidly through therapies.•Outcomes remain suboptimal, despite greater use of newer combination therapies, highlighting the need for early use of novel treatments.

B-cell maturation antigen (BCMA)–targeting therapies, including bispecific antibodies (BsAbs) and antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs), are promising treatments for multiple myeloma (MM), but disease may progress after their use. CARTITUDE-2 is a phase 2, multicohort study evaluating the safety and efficacy of cilta-cel, an anti-BCMA chimeric antigen receptor T therapy, in various myeloma patient populations. Patients in cohort C progressed despite treatment with a proteasome inhibitor, immunomodulatory drug, anti-CD38 antibody, and noncellular anti-BCMA immunotherapy. A single cilta-cel infusion was given after lymphodepletion. The primary end point was minimal residual disease (MRD) negativity at 10−5. Overall, 20 patients were treated (13 ADC exposed; 7 BsAb exposed; 1 in the ADC group also had prior BsAb exposure). Sixteen (80%) were refractory to prior anti-BCMA therapy. At a median follow-up of 11.3 months (range, 0.6-16.0), 7 of 20 (35%) patients were MRD negative (7 of 10 [70.0%] in the MRD-evaluable subset). Overall response rate (95% confidence interval [CI]) was 60.0% (36.1-80.9). Median duration of response and progression-free survival (95% CI) were 11.5 (7.9—not estimable) and 9.1 (1.5—not estimable) months, respectively. The most common adverse events were hematologic. Cytokine release syndrome occurred in 12 (60%) patients (all grade 1-2); 4 had immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity syndrome (2 had grade 3-4); none had parkinsonism. Seven (35%) patients died (3 of progressive disease, 4 of adverse events [1 treatment related, 3 unrelated]). Cilta-cel induced favorable responses in patients with relapsed/refractory MM and prior exposure to anti-BCMA treatment who had exhausted other therapies. This trial was registered at www.clinicaltrials.gov as NCT04133636.

CARTITUDE-1 is a phase 1b–2 study evaluating ciltacabtagene autoleucel (cilta-cel), a chimeric antigen receptor T cell therapy with two B-cell maturation antigen–targeting single-domain antibodies, in patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma. Primary efficacy outcomes have previously been reported. Here, we report health-related quality of life (HRQOL) secondary outcomes evaluated using patient-reported outcomes.

CARTITUDE-1 aimed to assess the safety and clinical activity of ciltacabtagene autoleucel (cilta-cel), a chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapy with two B-cell maturation antigen-targeting single-domain antibodies, in patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma with poor prognosis.

Background:Ciltacabtagene autoleucel (cilta-cel; JNJ-68284528; LCAR-B38M CAR-T cells) is a chimeric antigen receptor T (CAR-T) cell therapy with 2 B-cell maturation antigen-targeting single-domain antibodies designed to confer avidity. In the phase 1 LEGEND-2 study in China, LCAR-B38M yielded deep, durable responses with a manageable safety profile in patients (pts) with relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma (R/R MM). The phase 1b/2 CARTITUDE-1 study (NCT03548207) is further evaluating cilta-cel in this pt population in the US. We present updated data from the phase 1b portion along with initial phase 2 data.

CARTITUDE-4 (NCT04181827) is a phase 3 trial comparing ciltacabtagene autoleucel (cilta-cel), a B-cell maturation antigen chimeric antigen receptor-T cell (CAR-T) therapy, with standard of care (SOC; pomalidomide, bortezomib, and dexamethasone [PVd] or daratumumab, pomalidomide, and dexamethasone [DPd]) in patients (pts) with lenalidomide (len)-refractory multiple myeloma (MM). Pts in the cilta-cel arm had significantly improved progression-free survival (PFS), higher rates of ≥complete response (CR), and higher overall response rate (ORR) versus SOC in the intent-to-treat (ITT) set.

Bortezomib, thalidomide, and dexamethasone (VTd) plus autologous stem-cell transplantation is standard treatment in Europe for transplant-eligible patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma. We evaluated whether the addition of daratumumab to VTd before and after autologous stem-cell transplantation would improve stringent complete response rate in patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma.

Introduction:The phase 3 CARTITUDE-4 trial (NCT04181827) in patients with multiple myeloma (MM) after 1-3 lines of therapy compared ciltacabtagene autoleucel (cilta-cel) with standard of care (SOC; pomalidomide, bortezomib, and dexamethasone or daratumumab, pomalidomide, and dexamethasone). In the primary analysis, a single cilta-cel infusion significantly improved progression-free survival (hazard ratio [HR], 0.26; P<0.0001) and increased the rate and depth of response vs SOC. Here, we present adjusted comparisons of patient-reported outcomes (PROs) from patients randomized to cilta-cel vs SOC in CARTITUDE-4.

Introduction:CARTITUDE-4 (NCT04181827) is a randomized, phase 3 trial comparing ciltacabtagene autoleucel (cilta-cel), a BCMA-directed CAR-T cell therapy, with standard of care (SOC; pomalidomide, bortezomib, and dexamethasone [PVd] or daratumumab, pomalidomide, and dexamethasone [DPd]) in patients (pts) with lenalidomide (len)-refractory multiple myeloma (MM). The trial recently showed that pts in the cilta-cel arm experienced significantly improved progression-free survival (PFS) vs SOC (HR, 0.26; P<0.0001) and a significantly higher rate of complete response (CR) or better and overall response rate (ORR) in the intent-to-treat (ITT) set (San-Miguel et al, New Engl J Med2023). We report efficacy and safety in pts who received cilta-cel as study treatment (‘as-treated’ set) in the experimental (cilta-cel) arm of the study.

Background:Patients (pts) with multiple myeloma (MM) experience health-related quality of life (HRQoL) decrement due to symptoms such as fatigue, pain, and insomnia. Pt perspectives of their disease and treatment expectations can help inform clinical decision-making. The phase 1b/2 CARTITUDE-1 study (NCT03548207) is evaluating the efficacy and safety of ciltacabtagene autoleucel (cilta-cel; JNJ-68284528; LCAR-B38M CAR-T cells), a chimeric antigen receptor T (CAR-T) cell therapy with 2 B-cell maturation antigen-targeting single-domain antibodies, in pts with relapsed/refractory (R/R) MM. An exploratory objective is to describe pretreatment goals and expectations and post-treatment experience of cilta-cel using qualitative interviews.

The phase 3 Velcade as Initial Standard Therapy in Multiple Myeloma: Assessment with Melphalan and Prednisone study in newly diagnosed multiple myeloma patients ineligible for high-dose therapy demonstrated that bortezomib-melphalan-prednisone (VMP) was superior to melphalan-prednisone across all efficacy end points. We assessed the prognostic impact of response on time-to-event parameters in the intent-to-treat population. Patients received nine 6-week cycles of treatment. Time to progression, time to next therapy, and treatment-free interval were associated with quality of response. When European Group for Blood and Marrow Transplantation criteria were used, complete response (CR) was associated with significantly longer time to progression (hazard ratio [HR] = 0.45, P= .004), time to next therapy (HR = 0.46, P= .0004), and treatment-free interval (HR = 0.38, P< .0001) versus partial response, but there was no significant difference in overall survival (HR = 0.87, P= .54); similar differences were seen with CR versus very good partial response by uniform criteria. Quality of response improved with prolonged VMP treatment, with 28% of CRs achieved during cycles 5-9. CR duration appeared similar among patients with “early” (cycles 1-4) and “late” CRs (cycles 5-9) and among patients receiving 9 versus < 9 cycles of bortezomib within VMP. These results highlight that CR is an important treatment goal and support prolonged VMP therapy to achieve maximal response. This study is registered at http://www.clinicaltrials.govas NCT00111319.

B-cell maturation antigen (BCMA)–targeting therapies, including bispecific antibodies (BsAbs) and antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs), are promising treatments for multiple myeloma (MM), but disease may progress after their use. CARTITUDE-2 is a phase 2, multicohort study evaluating the safety and efficacy of cilta-cel, an anti-BCMA chimeric antigen receptor T therapy, in various myeloma patient populations. Patients in cohort C progressed despite treatment with a proteasome inhibitor, immunomodulatory drug, anti-CD38 antibody, and noncellular anti-BCMA immunotherapy. A single cilta-cel infusion was given after lymphodepletion. The primary end point was minimal residual disease (MRD) negativity at 10−5. Overall, 20 patients were treated (13 ADC exposed; 7 BsAb exposed; 1 in the ADC group also had prior BsAb exposure). Sixteen (80%) were refractory to prior anti-BCMA therapy. At a median follow-up of 11.3 months (range, 0.6-16.0), 7 of 20 (35%) patients were MRD negative (7 of 10 [70.0%] in the MRD-evaluable subset). Overall response rate (95% confidence interval [CI]) was 60.0% (36.1-80.9). Median duration of response and progression-free survival (95% CI) were 11.5 (7.9—not estimable) and 9.1 (1.5—not estimable) months, respectively. The most common adverse events were hematologic. Cytokine release syndrome occurred in 12 (60%) patients (all grade 1-2); 4 had immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity syndrome (2 had grade 3-4); none had parkinsonism. Seven (35%) patients died (3 of progressive disease, 4 of adverse events [1 treatment related, 3 unrelated]). Cilta-cel induced favorable responses in patients with relapsed/refractory MM and prior exposure to anti-BCMA treatment who had exhausted other therapies. This trial was registered at www.clinicaltrials.govas NCT04133636.

Background:The phase 1b/2 CARTITUDE-1 study (NCT03548207) is evaluating ciltacabtagene autoleucel (cilta-cel; JNJ-68284528; LCAR-B38M CAR-T cells), a chimeric antigen receptor T (CAR-T) cell therapy with 2 B-cell maturation antigen-targeting single-domain antibodies, in patients with relapsed/refractory (R/R) multiple myeloma (MM). Cytokine release syndrome (CRS), a known side effect of CAR-T therapy, can be mild to life-threatening and requires careful monitoring and management. Here, we analyzed CRS and cytokine profiles in CARTITUDE-1.

Background:Multiple myeloma (MM) negatively affects health-related quality of life (HRQoL), and with each relapse, patients with MM experience further declines in HRQoL. Patient-reported HRQoL is therefore an important treatment outcome, in addition to clinical response to therapy. CARTITUDE-1 (NCT03548207) is a phase 1b/2 study evaluating the safety and efficacy of ciltacabtagene autoleucel (cilta-cel; JNJ-68284528; LCAR-B38M CAR-T cells), a chimeric antigen receptor T (CAR-T) cell therapy with 2 B-cell maturation antigen-targeting single-domain antibodies, in patients with relapsed/refractory (R/R) MM. We evaluated symptoms, functioning, and overall HRQoL through patient-reported outcome measures, which is a secondary objective of CARTITUDE-1.

Introduction:Ciltacabtagene autoleucel (cilta-cel), a chimeric antigen receptor T-cell (CAR-T) therapy with 2 B-cell maturation antigen (BCMA)-targeting single-domain antibodies, is being evaluated in patients (pts) with relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM). In the phase 1b/2 CARTITUDE-1 (NCT03548207) study, a single dose of cilta-cel led to early, deep, and durable responses in heavily pretreated pts with MM, with a manageable safety profile (Berdeja, Lancet, 2021). At median 18 months of follow-up, the overall response rate (ORR) was 98%, with 80% of pts achieving stringent complete response. Median duration of response (DOR) was 21.8 months (95% CI, 21.8-not estimable); 18-month progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) rates were 66% and 81%, respectively. Here, we report the efficacy and safety of cilta-cel in various subgroups of pts in CARTITUDE-1.

Introduction:For transplant-eligible patients (pts) with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma (NDMM), autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT) is the standard of care treatment (tx). However, ASCT, which includes a standard melphalan conditioning regimen that is associated with systemic toxicity, is not always feasible due to various reasons including advanced age, co-morbidities, and pt frailty. ASCT-eligible pts may also opt to defer the procedure as initial therapy. For pts with NDMM who are ineligible or unwilling to pursue ASCT, the VRd regimen is an effective tx option; however, pts continue to have inferior outcomes, and there is a need for more effective tx strategies, including ones with a curative intent. Ciltacabtagene autoleucel (cilta-cel) is a chimeric antigen receptor T cell (CAR-T) therapy with 2 B-cell maturation antigen (BCMA)-targeting single-domain antibodies. In the phase 1b/2 CARTITUDE-1 study, a single infusion of cilta-cel resulted in deep and durable responses in heavily pretreated patients with relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma with a manageable safety profile (Berdeja, Lancet, 2021). At a median follow-up of 18 months (mo), the overall response rate was 98% (80% with stringent complete response), and the 18-mo overall survival (OS) rate was 81%.

Introduction: Daratumumab (DARA) is an anti-CD38 monoclonal antibody with on-tumor and immunomodulatory mechanisms of action which is approved as monotherapy for relapsed/refractory (RR) MM and in combination with standard of care regimens for RR and transplant-ineligible newly diagnosed MM. In clinical studies, the median duration of first intravenous (IV) infusion of DARA 16 mg/kg was 7.0 hours; subsequent infusions required approximately 3-5 hours. The feasibility of splitting the first 16 mg/kg infusion into 2 separate infusions of 8 mg/kg over approximately 4 hours each during the first 2 days of Cycle 1 was investigated through computer simulations for various recommended dosing regimens of DARA and in the multi-cohort, phase 1b MMY1001 study. Strong association has been demonstrated between DARA concentration and efficacy in RR MM (Xu XS, et al. Clin Pharmacol Ther2017;101:721-4), highlighting the importance of attaining similar serum concentrations of DARA for the split first dose regimen compared to the corresponding approved single first dose regimen of DARA.

Introduction: Daratumumab is a human CD38 IgGκ monoclonal antibody that demonstrated significant activity and a manageable safety profile in combination with bortezomib and dexamethasone. In a randomized phase 3 study, daratumumab in combination with bortezomib and dexamethasone (DVd) significantly prolonged progression-free survival (PFS) versus bortezomib and dexamethasone alone (Vd) in a pre-specified interim analysis of patients (pts) with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM; Palumbo A. N Engl J Med2016; in press). Herein, we examine subgroups from this study to compare the efficacy of DVd vs Vd in bortezomib-naive and bortezomib-experienced pt populations. In addition, the efficacy of DVd vs Vd in pts who were refractory to lenalidomide at last prior line of therapy was also evaluated.
