Brief Summary

This phase I/II trial studies the side effects and the best dose of pomalidomide when given together with dexamethasone and filgrastim-sndz and to see how well they work in treating patients with multiple myeloma that has returned or that does not respond to treatment. Pomalidomide may stimulate or suppress the immune system in different ways and may stop cancer cells from growing. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as dexamethasone, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Colony-stimulating factors, such as filgrastim-sndz, may increase the production of red and white blood cells and may help the immune system recover from the side effects of pomalidomide and/or dexamethasone. Giving pomalidomide together with dexamethasone and filgrastim-sndz may work better in treating patients with multiple myeloma.

Conditions

Multiple Myeloma-Light Chain Only; Recurrent Plasma Cell Myeloma; Refractory Plasma Cell Myeloma

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

• Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) (Phase I)

  Safety and tolerability will be assessed by clinical review of all relevant parameters, including dose limiting toxicities. Toxicity type and severity will be summarized by frequency tables. Maximum tolerated dose defined as the highest dose level in which patients have been treated with less than 2 instances of dose-limiting toxicity (Phase I)

  28 days

• Number of Participants Recommended Phase II Dose of Pomalidomide and Dexamethasone, When Both Agents Are Administered Together With Granulocyte-colony Stimulating Factor (Filgrastim) (Phase I)

  Up to 28 days

Secondary Outcomes (2)

• Number of Participants With Best Overall Response Defined Using the International Myeloma Working Group Uniform Response Criteria (IMWG-URC)

  After 112 days (4 courses) of therapy

• Number of Participants With Progression-free Survival

  Up to 6 years

Treatment (pomalidomide, dexamethasone, filgrastim-sndz)

EXPERIMENTAL

INDUCTION: Patients receive pomalidomide PO daily on days 1-21, dexamethasone PO on days 1, 8, 15, and 22, and filgrastim-sndz SC on days 22-28. Treatment repeats every 28 days for 6 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. MAINTENANCE: Patients receive lower-dose pomalidomide PO daily on days 1-21 and dexamethasone PO on days 1, 8, 15, and 22. Courses repeat every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

Drug: Dexamethasone; Biological: Filgrastim-sndz; Other: Laboratory Biomarker Analysis; Drug: Pomalidomide
