BACKGROUND: Daratumumab, an anti-CD38 monoclonal antibody, has been approved for the treatment of multiple myeloma. Data are needed regarding the use of daratumumab for high-risk smoldering multiple myeloma, a precursor disease of active multiple myeloma for which no treatments have been approved. METHODS: In this phase 3 trial, we randomly assigned patients with high-risk smoldering multiple myeloma to receive either subcutaneous daratumumab monotherapy or active monitoring. Treatment was continued for 39 cycles, for 36 months, or until confirmation of disease progression, whichever occurred first. The primary end point was progression-free survival; progression to active multiple myeloma was assessed by an independent review committee in accordance with International Myeloma Working Group diagnostic criteria. RESULTS: Among the 390 enrolled patients, 194 were assigned to the daratumumab group and 196 to the active-monitoring group. With a median follow-up of 65.2 months, the risk of disease progression or death was 51% lower with daratumumab than with active monitoring (hazard ratio, 0.49; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.36 to 0.67; P<0.001). Progression-free survival at 5 years was 63.1% with daratumumab and 40.8% with active monitoring. A total of 15 patients (7.7%) in the daratumumab group and 26 patients (13.3%) in the active-monitoring group died (hazard ratio, 0.52; 95% CI, 0.27 to 0.98). Overall survival at 5 years was 93.0% with daratumumab and 86.9% with active monitoring. The most common grade 3 or 4 adverse event was hypertension, which occurred in 5.7% and 4.6% of the patients in the daratumumab group and the active-monitoring group, respectively. Adverse events led to treatment discontinuation in 5.7% of the patients in the daratumumab group, and no new safety concerns were identified. CONCLUSIONS: Among patients with high-risk smoldering multiple myeloma, subcutaneous daratumumab monotherapy was associated with a significantly lower risk of progression to active multiple myeloma or death and with higher overall survival than active monitoring. No unexpected safety concerns were identified. (Funded by Janssen Research and Development; AQUILA ClinicalTrials.gov number, NCT03301220.).

INTRODUCTION: Patients with pretreated relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM) have a poor prognosis and limited treatment options, underscoring the need for safe treatments with durable efficacy. METHODS: This Phase 2 study evaluated magrolimab (Magro) plus daratumumab (Dara) or pomalidomide/dexamethasone (Pd) or carfilzomib/dexamethasone (Kd) in RRMM. The primary efficacy endpoint was objective response rate (ORR). RESULTS: ORR was 14.3% (Magro+Dara; n = 14), 20.0% (Magro+Pd; n = 10) and 36.4% (Magro+Kd; n = 11). There were two dose-limiting toxicities: febrile neutropenia (Magro+Dara) and infusion-related reaction (Magro+Pd). Grade ≥ 3 Magro-related adverse event (AE) rates were 64.3% (Magro+Dara), 60.0% (Magro+Pd) and 63.6% (Magro+Kd). Two deaths were AE-related; neither was Magro related. CONCLUSION: As the study closed early, insights into the clinical profile of Magro combinations in RRMM are limited. TRIAL REGISTRATION: This trial was registered at www.clinicaltrials.gov as #NCT04892446.

BACKGROUND: In the phase 3 ALCYONE study, the addition of daratumumab to bortezomib, melphalan, and prednisone (D-VMP) significantly improved outcomes in transplant-ineligible patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma. Here, we present results from the final analysis of ALCYONE. METHODS: ALCYONE was an international, multicentre, randomised, open-label, active-controlled, phase 3 trial in adults aged 18 years or older with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma who were ineligible for high-dose chemotherapy with autologous stem-cell transplantation, because of their age (≥65 years) or presence of substantial comorbidities, and had an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status of 0-2. Patients were enrolled between Feb 9, 2015, and July 14, 2016, and were randomly assigned (1:1) by randomly permuted blocks using an interactive web-based randomisation system to receive bortezomib, melphalan, and prednisone (VMP) alone or D-VMP, with randomisation stratified by International Staging System disease stage, geographical region, and age. Patients received up to nine 6-week cycles of subcutaneous bortezomib (1·3 mg/m2 of body surface area, twice per week on weeks 1, 2, 4, and 5 of cycle 1 and once weekly on weeks 1, 2, 4, and 5 of cycles 2-9), oral melphalan (9 mg/m2, once daily on days 1-4 of each cycle), and oral prednisone (60 mg/m2, once daily on days 1-4 of each cycle). Patients in the D-VMP group also received intravenous daratumumab at a dose of 16 mg/kg once weekly during cycle 1, once every 3 weeks in cycles 2-9, and once every 4 weeks thereafter until disease progression, unacceptably toxicity, or the end of study. The primary endpoint, progression-free survival, has been previously reported. The ALCYONE study has completed; presented here are final analyses for selected secondary endpoints related to overall survival, depth of response, subsequent therapy, and safety. The intention-to-treat population was the primary analysis population (including for overall survival), defined as all patients who were randomly assigned to study treatment. The safety population, consisting of patients who received any dose of study treatment, was used in safety analyses. This trial is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT02195479. FINDINGS: In total, 706 patients were enrolled and randomly assigned to receive D-VMP (n=350) or VMP (n=356). Baseline characteristics were balanced between the two treatment groups; most participants were female (379 [54%] of 706 patients) and White (601 [85%] of 706 patients). At a median follow-up of 86·7 months (IQR 28·5-85·2), median overall survival was 83·0 months (95% CI 72·5-not estimable) with D-VMP versus 53·6 months (46·3-60·9) with VMP (hazard ratio [HR] 0·65 [95% CI 0·53-0·80]; p<0·0001). The most common grade 3 or 4 treatment-emergent adverse events were neutropenia (140 [40%] of 346 patients in the D-VMP group vs 138 [39%] of 354 patients in the VMP group), thrombocytopenia (120 [35%] vs 134 [38%]), and anaemia (63 [18%] vs 70 [20%]). Serious treatment-related adverse events occurred in 74 (21%) of 346 patients in the D-VMP group and 56 (16%) of 354 patients in the VMP group. Deaths due to treatment-related adverse events occurred in five (1%) of 346 patients in the D-VMP group (pneumonia, acute myocardial infarction, neuroendocrine tumour, tumour lysis syndrome, and acute respiratory failure) and three (1%) of 354 patients in the VMP group (acute myeloid leukaemia, pulmonary embolism, and bacterial pneumonia). INTERPRETATION: With more than 7 years of follow-up, D-VMP continued to elicit clinical benefits in transplant-ineligible patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma, supporting the efficacy and safety of frontline daratumumab-based therapy in this patient population.

Despite significant advancements in therapy of multiple myeloma (MM) over the past 20 years, most patients experience relapse, necessitating new treatment approaches. This study aims to compare the real-world effectiveness of lenalidomide (LEN)-based triplet therapies, specifically daratumumab (DRD), carfilzomib (KRD), and ixazomib (IRD), in relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM).A retrospective registry-based study analyzed 538 RRMM patients undergoing therapy for their first to third relapse. The primary endpoints were overall response rate (ORR), progression-free survival (PFS), and overall survival (OS), with a matching-adjusted indirect comparisons (MAIC) employed to address cohort differences.ORR was highest for DRD at 91.4%, followed by KRD (89.6%) and IRD cohorts (Early-IRD: 79.6%, Late-IRD: 70.8%). Median PFS for DRD was greater at 23.64 months compared to KRD (16.52 months) and IRD groups (Early-IRD: 19.97 months, Late-IRD: 11.57 months). The MAIC confirmed better outcomes for the DRD regimen. High-risk features were not overcome by any of the LEN-based regimens.The findings underscore the superior efficacy of DRD in achieving sustained responses in RRMM patients. The composition of the cohort is a crucial factor, extending beyond selection criteria. This study highlights the importance of real-world evidence in assessing treatment modalities in clinical settings.

Daratumumab, lenalidomid (Revlimid) a dexamethason (DRd) je léčebná kombinace indikovaná pro pacienty s nově diagnostikovaným, ale i relabujícím mnohočetným myelomem. Účinnost DRd v léčbě myelomu nelze zpochybnit. U pacientky, kterou popisuje náš příspěvek, byl diagnostikován kromě myelomu i nekrobiotický xantogranulom (NXG) se závažnými komplikacemi. Vzhledem k raritnímu výskytu této histocytární nemoci není stanoven žádný optimální léčebný postup. S cílem léčby mnohočetného myelomu a s ním spojeného NXG jsme použili režim DRd v kombinaci s intravenózní aplikací imunoglobulinů. Kombinovaná léčba vedla k významné regresi NXG a k vymizení potíží, které byly s NXG spojeny.

Daratumumab, lenalidomid and dexamethason (DRd) is a combination treatment indicated for newly diagnosed as well as relapsed multiple myeloma. The efficacy of DRd in the treatment of myeloma is unquestionable. In the case of the patient described in our report, in addition to myeloma, necrobiotic xanthogranuloma (NXG) with significant complications was also diagnosed. Given the rare occurrence of this histiocytic disease, no optimal treatment protocol has been established. With the aim of myeloma treating and associated NXG, we used the DRd regimen in combination with intravenous administration of immunoglobulins. The combined treatment led to significant regression of NXG and the disappearance of symptoms associated with NXG.

Postižení ledvin v rámci Light Chain Depositon Disease (LCDD) je velmi vzácně diagnostikovanou jednotkou. Popisuje- me případ, kdy tato diagnóza byla morfologicky stanovena až v biopsii transplantované ledviny a retrospektivně byla dohledána i v předchozí biopsii ledvin, kde však změny nebyly správně klasifikovány. Biopsie transplantované ledviny byla provedena pro postupně se horšící funkce štěpu. Následné vyšetření, cílené na monoklonální gamapatii, prokázalo zvýšenou sérovou koncentraci volných lehkých řetězců kappa (free light chain – FLC) s maximální hodnotou FLC kappa 226 mg/l a FLC lambda jen 6 mg/l. Poměr FLC kappa / FLC lambda byl jasně patologický, 37 (normalní rozmezí 0,26–1,65). Imunofixační elektroforéza séra a moče byla opakovaně negativní. Cytologické vyšetření kostní dřeně popsalo 8 % patolo- gických plazmatických buněk. Flow-cytometrické vyšetření kostní dřeně prokázalo 0,7 % plazmocytů ze všech jaderných buněk kostní dřeně. Tyto plazmocyty byly ve 100 % klonální, abnormálního fenotypu kappa+. Diagnóza byla uzavřena jako nemaligní gamapatie typu „monoklonální gamapatie renálního významu“ s poškozením ledvin v morfologické formě odpovídající LCDD. Pro léčbu byla zvolena kombinace daratumumabu, bortezomibu, cyklofosfamidu a dexametazonu. Současně pacientka dostávala imunosupresivní léčbu nutnou k zachování funkce transplantované ledviny. Sérová hladina volných lehkých řetězců kappa v průběhu prvních dvou měsíců léčby poklesla pod dolní hranici normy. LCDD je jednou z mnoha forem poškození ledvin, k němuž může dojít při nemaligních gamapatiích. Proto by vyšetření FLC mělo být provedeno vždy v rámci diferenciální diagnostiky každého renálního selhání. Pro poškození ledvin mono- klonálním imunoglobulinem byla akceptována klasifikace vytvořená mezinárodní skupinou The International Kidney and Monoclonal Gammopathy Research Group. Morfology, hodnoticí biopsie ledvin, je vhodné informovat o případné přítomnosti patologické koncentrace FLC anebo M-Ig, aby

Light Chain Deposition Disease (LCDD) is a very rarely diagnosed condition affecting the kidneys. We describe a case where this diagnosis was morphologically confirmed in a biopsy of a transplanted kidney, and retrospectively identified in a previous kidney biopsy where the changes were not correctly classified. The biopsy of the transplanted kidney was performed due to worsening graft function. Subsequent testing focused on monoclonal gammopathy, revealing elevated serum concentrations of free kappa light chains (FLC) with a maximum FLC kappa value of 226 mg/l and FLC lambda at only 6 mg/l. The FLC kappa / FLC lambda ratio was clearly pathological at 37 (normal range 0.26-1.65). Serum and urine immunofixation electrophoresis were repeatedly negative. Bone marrow cytology described 8% pathological plasma cells, and flow cytometry demonstrated 0.7% plasma cells among all nuclear bone marrow cells. These plasma cells were 100% clonal, of the abnormal kappa + phenotype. The diagnosis was thus concluded as a non-malignant gammopathy of the type "monoclonal gammopathy of clinical significance" with renal damage in a morphological form corresponding to LCDD. A combination of daratumumab, bortezomib, cyclophosphamide and dexamethasone was chosen for treatment LCDD. Free light kappa chains decreased below the lower limit of the norm during the first two months of anti-CD38 therapy. LCDD is one of the many forms of kidney damage that can occur in non-malignant gammopathies. Therefore, FLC testing should always be performed as part of the differential diagnosis of renal failure. For kidney damage by monoclonal immunoglobulin, a classification created by The International Kidney and Monoclonal Gammopathy Research Group was accepted. It is advisable to inform the evaluating morphologists of the possible presence of pathological concentrations of FLC and/or M-Ig so that they can focus the diagnosis in this direction, otherwise these rare forms of kidney injury may remain unrecognized.

Frontline daratumumab-based triplet and quadruplet standard-of-care regimens have demonstrated improved survival outcomes in newly diagnosed multiple myeloma (NDMM). For patients with transplant-ineligible NDMM, triplet therapy with either daratumumab plus lenalidomide and dexamethasone (D-Rd) or bortezomib, lenalidomide and dexamethasone (VRd) is the current standard of care. This phase 3 trial evaluated subcutaneous daratumumab plus VRd (D-VRd) in patients with transplant-ineligible NDMM or for whom transplant was not planned as the initial therapy (transplant deferred). Some 395 patients with transplant-ineligible or transplant-deferred NDMM were randomly assigned to eight cycles of D-VRd or VRd followed by D-Rd or Rd until progression. The primary endpoint was overall minimal residual disease (MRD)-negativity rate at 10-5 by next-generation sequencing. Major secondary endpoints included complete response (CR) or better (≥CR) rate, progression-free survival and sustained MRD-negativity rate at 10-5. At a median follow-up of 58.7 months, the MRD-negativity rate was 60.9% with D-VRd versus 39.4% with VRd (odds ratio, 2.37; 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.58-3.55; P < 0.0001). Rates of ≥CR (81.2% versus 61.6%; P < 0.0001) and sustained MRD negativity (≥12 months; 48.7% versus 26.3%; P < 0.0001) were significantly higher with D-VRd versus VRd. Risk of progression or death was 43% lower for D-VRd versus VRd (hazard ratio, 0.57; 95% CI, 0.41-0.79; P = 0.0005). Adverse events were consistent with the known safety profiles for daratumumab and VRd. Combining daratumumab with VRd produced deeper and more durable MRD responses versus VRd alone. The present study supports D-VRd quadruplet therapy as a new standard of care for transplant-ineligible or transplant-deferred NDMM. ClinicalTrials.gov registration: NCT03652064 .

BACKGROUND: Daratumumab, a monoclonal antibody targeting CD38, has been approved for use with standard myeloma regimens. An evaluation of subcutaneous daratumumab combined with bortezomib, lenalidomide, and dexamethasone (VRd) for the treatment of transplantation-eligible patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma is needed. METHODS: In this phase 3 trial, we randomly assigned 709 transplantation-eligible patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma to receive either subcutaneous daratumumab combined with VRd induction and consolidation therapy and with lenalidomide maintenance therapy (D-VRd group) or VRd induction and consolidation therapy and lenalidomide maintenance therapy alone (VRd group). The primary end point was progression-free survival. Key secondary end points were a complete response or better and minimal residual disease (MRD)-negative status. RESULTS: At a median follow-up of 47.5 months, the risk of disease progression or death in the D-VRd group was lower than the risk in the VRd group. The estimated percentage of patients with progression-free survival at 48 months was 84.3% in the D-VRd group and 67.7% in the VRd group (hazard ratio for disease progression or death, 0.42; 95% confidence interval, 0.30 to 0.59; P<0.001); the P value crossed the prespecified stopping boundary (P = 0.0126). The percentage of patients with a complete response or better was higher in the D-VRd group than in the VRd group (87.9% vs. 70.1%, P<0.001), as was the percentage of patients with MRD-negative status (75.2% vs. 47.5%, P<0.001). Death occurred in 34 patients in the D-VRd group and 44 patients in the VRd group. Grade 3 or 4 adverse events occurred in most patients in both groups; the most common were neutropenia (62.1% with D-VRd and 51.0% with VRd) and thrombocytopenia (29.1% and 17.3%, respectively). Serious adverse events occurred in 57.0% of the patients in the D-VRd group and 49.3% of those in the VRd group. CONCLUSIONS: The addition of subcutaneous daratumumab to VRd induction and consolidation therapy and to lenalidomide maintenance therapy conferred a significant benefit with respect to progression-free survival among transplantation-eligible patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma.

Induction therapy followed by CD34+ cell mobilisation and autologous transplantation represents standard of care for multiple myeloma (MM). However, the anti-CD38 monoclonal antibodies daratumumab and isatuximab have been associated with mobilisation impairment, yet the mechanism remains unclear. In this study, we investigated the effect of three different regimens (dara-VCd, isa-KRd and VTd) on CD34+ cells using flow cytometry and transcriptomics. Decreased CD34+ cell peak concentration and yields, longer collection and delayed engraftment were reproduced after dara-VCd/isa-KRd versus VTd induction in 34 patients in total. Using flow cytometry, we detected major changes in the proportion of apheresis product and bone marrow CD34+ subsets in patients treated with regimens containing anti-CD38 therapy; however, without any decrease in CD38high B-lymphoid progenitors in both materials. RNA-seq of mobilised CD34+ cells from 21 patients showed that adhesion genes are overexpressed in CD34+ cells after dara-VCd/isa-KRd and JCAD, NRP2, MDK, ITGA3 and CLEC3B were identified as potential target genes. Finally, direct in vitro effect of isatuximab in upregulating JCAD and CLEC3B was confirmed by quantitative PCR. These findings suggest that upregulated adhesion-related interactions, rather than killing of CD34+ cells by effector mechanisms, could be leading causes of decreased mobilisation efficacy in MM patients treated with anti-CD38 therapy.
