Selinexor with Bispecific Antibody Therapy for the Treatment of Relapsed or Refractory Multiple Myeloma
This phase II trial tests how well adding selinexor along with standard of care bispecific antibody therapy (with teclistamab, elranatamab or talquetamab) works to treat patients with multiple myeloma that has come back after a period of improvement (relapsed) or that does not respond to treatment (refractory). The growth of normal human cells is controlled in many ways. Cancer cells escape these mechanisms and grow uncontrollably. One way cancer cells continue to grow is by getting rid of proteins called “tumor suppressor proteins” that would normally cause cancer cells to die. Selinexor works by trapping these “tumor suppressor proteins” within the cell nucleus, which is expected to cause the cancer cells to die or stop growing. Teclistamab, elranatamab and talquetamab are bispecific antibodies. A bispecific antibody is an antibody that can target both cancer cells and immune cells at the same time, helping the immune cells attack the cancer cells. Giving selinexor along with standard of care bispecific antibody therapy may be effective in treating patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma.

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To determine the safety of single agent selinexor given after initiation of commercial bispecific antibody therapy in patients with relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM).
II. To determine the minimal residual disease (MRD) negativity rate at 10^-5 at 12 months post bispecific antibody.
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To determine the overall response rate (ORR), complete remission rate (CR), very good partial response rate (VGPR), partial response rate (PR).
II. To determine the efficacy of single agent selinexor given with commercial bispecific antibody in patients with RRMM in prolonging the progression free survival (PFS).
III. To assess the effects of selinexor on the development of cytokine release syndrome (CRS) and immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity syndrome (ICANs) after selinexor administration.
EXPLORATORY OBJECTIVE:
I. To measure immune cells and the exhaustion and activation markers of T cells.
OUTLINE:
Patients receive teclistamab, elranatamab or talquetamab subcutaneously (SC) once weekly or every other week per standard of care. Once step-up dosing has been completed, patients receive selinexor orally (PO) on days 1, 8, 15, and 22 of each cycle. Cycles repeat every 28 days for 12 months in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Treatment with bispecific antibody therapy continues in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients undergo echocardiography or multigated acquisition (MUGA) scan, bone marrow aspirate and biopsy, positron emission tomography (PET) scan and/or computed tomography (CT) scan and/or skeletal survey and/or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and blood and urine sample collection throughout the study.
After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up at 30 days and every 3 months.
