Ixazomib Citrate, Lenalidomide, Dexamethasone, and Daratumumab in Treating Patients with Newly Diagnosed Multiple Myeloma
This phase II trial studies how well ixazomib citrate, lenalidomide, dexamethasone, and daratumumab work in treating patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma. Ixazomib citrate may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as lenalidomide and dexamethasone, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Immunotherapy with daratumumab, may induce changes in body’s immune system and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving ixazomib citrate, lenalidomide, dexamethasone, and daratumumab may work better in treating patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma.

- Other concurrent chemotherapy, or any ancillary therapy considered investigational; NOTE: Bisphosphonates are considered to be supportive care rather than therapy, and are thus allowed while on protocol treatment

- Radiotherapy =< 14 days prior to registration; NOTE: If the involved field is small, 7 days will be considered a sufficient interval between treatment and administration of the ixazomib
- Known human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) positive
- Known hepatitis B surface antigen-positive status, or known or suspected active hepatitis C infection
- Any serious medical or psychiatric illness that could, in the investigator’s opinion, potentially interfere with the completion of treatment according to this protocol

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To determine the complete response rate (CR) of the four-drug combination of ixazomib citrate (ixazomib), lenalidomide, dexamethasone and daratumumab in patients with previously untreated symptomatic multiple myeloma (MM).

I. To determine the overall response rate (ORR), and very good partial response (VGPR) rate with the four drug combination of ixazomib, lenalidomide, dexamethasone and daratumumab, when used as initial therapy in patients with previously untreated symptomatic MM.
