Brief Summary

This phase I/II trial studies the side effects and best dose of ixazomib and to see how well it works when given together with pomalidomide and dexamethasone in treating patients with relapsed or relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma. Ixazomib may stop the growth of cancer by interfering with proteasomes (the protein breakdown mechanism in the cells). Pomalidomide and dexamethasone can modify and regulate the immune system and may stop cancer cells from growing. Giving ixazomib with pomalidomide and dexamethasone may be an effective treatment for relapsed or relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma.

Conditions

Refractory Plasma Cell Myeloma; Recurrent Plasma Cell Myeloma

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

• Number of Patients With Dose-Limiting Toxicities (Phase I)

  Dose Limiting Toxicity (DLT) is defined as any of the toxicities in Section 7.3 that are at least possibly related to either Pomalidomide or MLN9708 that occur during cycle 1. Toxicity graded according to the National Cancer Institute (NCI) Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events version 4.03. The highest dose level that produces 1/6 dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) in course 1 will be the maximum tolerated dose (MTD). The RP2D of ixazomib and pomalidomide will generally be the MTD, but it may be less than the MTD based on a review of available data/cumulative toxicities from phase I.

  From the initial treatment to Day 28 (Cycle #1)

• Overall Response Rate at the Recommended Phase II Dose (RP2D)

  Over response rate is calculated as the percent of evaluable patients that have confirmed stringent complete remission (sCR), complete remission (CR), very good partial remission (VGPR) or partial remission \[PR\]) per modified IMWG criteria. sCR as defined below plus normal FLC ratio and absence of clonal cells in bone marrow. CR defined as negative immunofixation on the serum and urine and disappearance of any soft tissue plasmacytomas and \< 5% plasma cells in bone marrow. VGPR defined as serum and urine M-protein detectable or \> 90% reduction in serum M-protein plus urine M-protein level \< 100 mg/24 h. PR defined as \> 50% reduction of serum M-protein and reduction in 24 hours urinary M-protein by \>90% or to \< 200 mg/24 h. The exact 95% confidence intervals are calculated for the estimate.

  From the initial treatment to 24 months

• Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) of MLN9708 (Phase I)

  The highest dose level that produces 1/6 dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) in Cycle #1 will be the maximum tolerated dose (MTD). The RP2D of ixazomib and pomalidomide will generally be the MTD, but it may be less than the MTD based on a review of available data/cumulative toxicities from phase I.

  From the initial treatment to Day 28 (Cycle #1)

Secondary Outcomes (4)

• Duration of Response at the Recommended Phase II Dose (RP2D)

  Time interval from the date of first documented response (sCR/CR/VGPR or PR) to documented disease relapse, progression or death whichever occurs first, up to 24 months

• Clinical Benefit Response Rate at the Recommended Phase II Dose (RP2D)

  From the initial treatment up to 24 months

• One-Year Overall Survival at the Recommended Phase II Dose (RP2D)

  Date of first dose of study drug to date of death from any cause, up to 24 months. And the median follow-up for the surviving patients is at least one year.

• One-Year Progression-Free Survival at the Recommend Phase II Dose (RP2D)

  Date of first dose of study drug to first documented disease relapse, progression or death from any cause, whichever occurs first, up to 24 months. And the median follow-up for the surviving patients is at least one year.
