ABSTRACT
PURPOSE:
This phase I study evaluated elotuzumab, lenalidomide, and dexamethasone in patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma (MM). PATIENTS ANDMETHODS:
Three cohorts were enrolled and treated with elotuzumab (5.0, 10, or 20 mg/kg intravenously) on days 1, 8, 15, and 22 of a 28-day cycle in the first two cycles, and days 1 and 15 of each subsequent cycle; lenalidomide 25 mg orally [PO] on days 1 to 21; and dexamethasone 40 mg PO weekly. Dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) were assessed during cycle 1 of each cohort, and clinical responses were evaluated during each cycle. The first five patients received up to six cycles of therapy; subsequent patients were treated until disease progression.RESULTS:
Twenty-nine patients with advanced MM and a median of three prior MM therapies were enrolled; 28 patients were treated, three each in the 5.0-mg/kg and 10-mg/kg cohorts and 22 in the 20-mg/kg cohort. No DLTs were observed up to the maximum proposed dose of 20 mg/kg. The most frequent grade 3 to 4 toxicities were neutropenia (36%) and thrombocytopenia (21%). Two patients experienced a serious infusion reaction (one grade 4 anaphylactic reaction and one grade 3 stridor) during the first treatment cycle. Objective responses were obtained in 82% (23 of 28) of treated patients. After a median of 16.4 months follow-up, the median time to progression was not reached for patients in the 20-mg/kg cohort who were treated until disease progression.CONCLUSION:
The combination of elotuzumab, lenalidomide, and low-dose dexamethasone was generally well tolerated and showed encouraging response rates in patients with relapsed or refractory MM.
