Belantamab Mafodotin and Lenalidomide After Stem Cell Transplant in Patients With Newly Diagnosed Multiple Myeloma.

Trial Status: active

This phase II trial studies how well belantamab mafodotin and lenalidomide work to decrease the small numbers of cancer cells that remain in the body during or after treatment (minimal residual disease) in patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma after undergoing autologous hematopoietic cell transplantation (auto-HCT) or stem cell transplant. Belantamab mafodotin is a monoclonal antibody, called belantamab, linked to a chemotherapy drug, called mafodotin. Belantamab is a form of targeted therapy because it attaches to specific receptors on the surface of cancer cells, known as BCMA receptors, and delivers mafodotin to kill them. Lenalidomide may help block the formation of growths that may become cancer. Giving belantamab mafodotin and lenalidomide may help prevent multiple myeloma from coming back.
