Iberdomide, Daratumumab, Carfilzomib, and Dexamethasone for the Treatment of Relapsed or Refractory Multiple Myeloma
This phase II trial tests how well iberdomide, daratumumab, carfilzomib and dexamethasone work in treating patients with multiple myeloma that has come back after a period of improvement (relapsed) or has not responded to previous treatment (refractory). Iberdomide is a medication that belongs to a group of drugs known as cereblon E3 ligase modulators. Iberdomide may be able to suppress multiple myeloma by directly killing cancer cells and also by stimulating the immune system. Daratumumab is in a class of medications called monoclonal antibodies. It binds to a protein called CD38, which is found on some types of immune cells and cancer cells, including myeloma cells. Daratumumab may block CD38 and help the immune system kill cancer cells. Carfilzomib is in a class of medications called proteasome inhibitors. It works by stopping or slowing the growth of cancer cells in your body. Dexamethasone is in a class of medications called corticosteroids. It is used to reduce inflammation and lower the body's immune response to help lessen the side effects of chemotherapy drugs. Giving iberdomide, daratumumab, carfilzomib and dexamethasone may kill more cancer cells in patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma.

FCBP must also agree to ongoing pregnancy testing. Men must agree to use a latex condom during sexual contact with a FCBP even if they have had a successful vasectomy. * A FCBP is a female who: 1) has achieved menarche at some point, 2) has not undergone a hysterectomy or bilateral oophorectomy, or 3) has not been naturally postmenopausal (amenorrhea following cancer therapy does not rule out childbearing potential) for at least 24 consecutive months (i.e., has had menses at any time in the preceding 24 consecutive months). Females who do not meet the above definition of FCBP should be classified as females not of childbearing potential (FNCBP)
Exclusion Criteria

Those who are PCR positive will be excluded. ** EXCEPTION: Patients with serologic findings suggestive of HBV vaccination (anti-HBs positivity as the only serologic marker) AND a known history of prior HBV vaccination do not need to be tested for HBV DNA by PCR. * Seropositive for hepatitis C (except in the setting of a sustained virologic response [SVR], defined as aviremia at least 12 weeks after completion of antiviral therapy)

PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:
I. To assess the rate of minimal residual disease (MRD) negativity for patients who receive iberdomide, daratumumab, carfilzomib and dexamethasone (Iber-KDd).
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To assess the safety and tolerability of the combination treatment.
II. To assess the rates of partial response (PR) or better, very good partial response (VGPR) or better, complete response (CR), and stringent complete response (sCR) as well as the overall response rate (ORR).
III. To assess the durability of anti-myeloma activity with Iber-KDd.
IV. To determine the time until disease progression, time until event, and length of patient survival.
V. To assess the rate of (sustained) MRD-negativity.
VI. To assess the rate of MRD-negativity as best response after the completion of iberdomide monotherapy.
VII. To assess the safety and tolerability of iberdomide monotherapy.
EXPLORATORY OBJECTIVES:
I. To assess the safety and tolerability of iberdomide monotherapy.
II. To correlate genomic lesions with response and resistance to Iber-KDd and other quadruplet immunotherapeutic combinations.
III. To correlate the tumor immune microenvironment signatures associated with response to Iber-KDd and other quadruplet immunotherapeutic combinations.
OUTLINE:
Patients receive iberdomide orally (PO) once daily (QD) on days 1-21, carfilzomib intravenously (IV) on days 1, 8, and 15, and dexamethasone IV or PO on days 1, 8, and 15 of each cycle. Patients also receive daratumumab subcutaneously (SC) or IV on days 1, 8, 15, and 22 of cycles 1 and 2, days 1 and 15 of cycles 3-6, and day 1 of subsequent cycles. Treatment repeats every 28 days for 8 cycles in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients then receive iberdomide as monotherapy PO QD on days 1-21 with cycles 9-20 in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients also undergo blood sample collection, bone marrow biopsy and aspirate, and whole body fludeoxyglucose F-18 (FDG) positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT) throughout study.
After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up for up to 3 years.
