Elranatamab for the Treatment of Patients with Relapsed or Refractory AL Amyloidosis
This phase I/II trial tests the safety, side effects, best dose and how well elranatamab works in treating patients with AL amyloidosis that has come back after a period of improvement (relapsed) or that has not responded to previous treatment (refractory). Elranatamab is a monoclonal antibody that may interfere with the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. A monoclonal antibody is a type of protein that can bind to certain targets in the body, such as molecules that cause the body to make an immune response (antigens).

- The effects of elranatamab on the developing human fetus are unknown. Based on the mechanism of action, elranatamab may cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman and therefore should not be used during pregnancy. For this reason, women of child-bearing potential and men must agree to use adequate contraception (hormonal or barrier method of birth control; abstinence) prior to study entry and for the duration of study participation and until 90 days since the last dose of elranatamab. Should a woman become pregnant or suspect she is pregnant while she or her partner is participating in this study, she should inform her treating physician immediately. Men treated or enrolled on this protocol must also agree to use adequate contraception prior to the study, for the duration of study participation, and 90 days after completion of elranatamab administration
- Ability to understand and the willingness to sign a written informed consent document
- Willingness to undergo study procedures, including bone marrow biopsies as detailed in the schedule of events
- Patients must have received at least one cycle of daratumumab monotherapy (or in combination with other anti-plasma cell directed therapy), cyclophosphamide/bortezomib/dexamethasone (CyBorD), or Daratumumab + CyBorD
- Anti-plasma cell directed therapy discontinued for at least 5 half-lives or a minimum of 2 weeks (whichever is shorter) prior to the initiation of elranatamab
- Patients who have received a stem cell transplant must wait at least 1 year prior to the initiation of elranatamab
- Patients who have received a monoclonal antibody such as daratumumab, would need drug discontinued for at least 2 weeks prior to the initiation of elranatamab
Exclusion Criteria

- Participants refractory to belantamab mafodotin OR participants that have received belantamab as the immediate past line of therapy
- Participants who have not recovered from adverse events due to prior anti-cancer therapy (i.e., have residual toxicities > grade 1) with the exception of alopecia
- Participants who are receiving any other investigational agents for this condition

- Women who are pregnant, breastfeeding, or planning to become pregnant while enrolled in this study or 4 months following discontinuation of elranatamab, whichever is longer. Pregnant women are excluded from this study because elranatamab is an agent with the potential for teratogenic or abortifacient effects. Because there is an unknown but potential risk for adverse events in nursing infants secondary to treatment of the mother with elranatamab, breastfeeding should be discontinued if the mother is treated with elranatamab

OUTLINE: This is a dose-escalation study.
Patients receive elranatamab subcutaneously (SC) on day 1, 4, 8, 15 and 22 of cycle 1 and on days 1, 8, 15, and 22 of cycle 2. Patients who achieve less than a very good partial response (VGPR) then receive elranatamab SC on days 1, 8, 15 and 22 of subsequent cycles, and patients who achieve greater than or equal to VGPR receive elranatamab SC on days 1 and 15 of subsequent cycles. Cycles repeat every 28 days, for a total of 6 cycles, in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients undergo echocardiography and positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT) scan, CT, skeletal survey x-ray, or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) at baseline. In addition, patients undergo bone marrow aspiration and biopsy and blood and urine sample collection throughout the study.
After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up every 3 months for 2.5 years.
