This is a video synopsis/summary of a Case-Based Peer Perspective featuring: Douglas Sborov, MD.
The phase 2 IFM-2018-04 trial, whose data were presented at the 2023 American Society of Hematology (ASH) annual meeting, included transplant-eligible patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma with high-risk cytogenetic abnormalities translocation (4;14), translocation (14;16), or deletion 17p. Patients received 6 cycles of daratumumab-carfilzomib-lenalidomide-dexamethasone (Dara-KRD) induction, stem cell mobilization/collection, autologous stem cell transplant, 4 cycles of Dara-KRD consolidation, a second transplant, then 2 years of Dara-lenalidomide maintenance.
Of 50 patients, 8% had extramedullary disease, 6% had primary plasma cell leukemia, and 60% had 2 or more high-risk features. Post second transplant, 81% achieved a complete response or better and 96% were minimal residual disease negative (10-6 threshold). At 32-month median follow-up, 30-month progression-free survival was 80% and overall survival 91%.
