CB-839 HCl in Combination With Carfilzomib and Dexamethasone in Treating Patients With Recurrent or Refractory Multiple Myeloma

Brief Summary
This phase I trial studies the best dose of CB-839 HCl when given together with carfilzomib and dexamethasone in treating patients with multiple myeloma that has come back or does not respond to previous treatment. CB-839 HCl and carfilzomib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. 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. Giving CB-839 HCl, carfilzomib, and dexamethasone may work better in treating patients with multiple myeloma.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and recommended phase II dose (RP2D)
MTD will be determined by dose limiting toxicity (DLT). MTD is defined as the dose level below the lowest dose that induces DLT in at least 2 patients (out of 6). The highest dose is defined as the RP2D. A standard cohort 3+3 design will be used.
Up to 28 days
Secondary Outcomes (2)
Incidence of adverse events
Up to 30 days after study treatment
Overall response rate (ORR)
Up to 1 year
Other Outcomes (1)
Pharmacokinetic (PK) profiles and pharmacodynamic effect
Days 1 and 15 of cycle 1
Study Arms (1)
Treatment (CB-839 HCI, dexamethasone, carfilzomib)
EXPERIMENTALPatients receive glutaminase inhibitor CB-839 Patients receive glutaminase inhibitor CB-839 hydrochloride PO every 12 hours on days 1-28, dexamethasone PO on days 1, 2, 8, 9, 15, 16, and 23, and carfilzomib IV over 10 minutes on days 1, 2, 8, 9, 15, and 16. Cycles repeat every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity

Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Patients must have relapsed and/or refractory myeloma and be experiencing disease relapse
- Patients must have measurable disease by International Myeloma Working Group (IMWG) criteria (any of the following):
- Serum M-protein \>= 0.5 g/dL or for IgA myeloma, an elevated IgA level by quantitative IgA nephelometry
- Urine M-protein \>= 200 mg in a 24-hour collection
- Serum free light chain level \>= 10 mg/dL with an abnormal free light chain ratio
- Measurable plasmacytoma by cross sectional imaging (computed tomography \[CT\], magnetic resonance imaging \[MRI\] or \[18F\]-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography with CT \[FDG PET/CT\])
- % or more light chain restricted, clonal plasma cells in the bone marrow
- At least two prior lines of therapy and all patients should have at least been exposed to a proteasome inhibitor (PI), an immunomodulatory drug (IMiD), and an anti-CD38 antibody
- Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status =\< 2 (Karnofsky \>= 60%)
- Leukocytes \>= 3,000/mcL
- Absolute neutrophil count \>= 1,000 cells/mm3 without growth factors (within 14 days of enrollment)
- Hemoglobin \>= 8 g/dL (within 14 days of enrollment)
- Platelets \>= 50,000 cells/mm3 (\>= 30,000 cells/mm3 if bone marrow plasma cells \>= 50% at enrollment)
- Total bilirubin =\< 1.5 x upper limit of normal (ULN)
- Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) (serum glutamic-oxaloacetic transaminase \[SGOT\])/alanine aminotransferase (ALT) (serum glutamate pyruvate transaminase \[SGPT\]) =\< 3 x institutional ULN
- +5 more criteria
You may not qualify if:
- Patients who are refractory or intolerant to carfilzomib (prior carfilzomib exposure accepted)
- Patients who have received recent prior chemotherapy with:
- Alkylators (e.g., melphalan, cyclophosphamide) and anthracyclines =\< 14 days prior to registration,
- High dose corticosteroids and immunomodulatory drugs (thalidomide or lenalidomide) =\< 7 days prior to registration, or
- Monoclonal antibodies =\< 14 days prior to registration
- Patients who have not recovered from adverse events (AEs) due to prior anti-cancer therapy (i.e., have residual toxicities \> grade 1 except peripheral neuropathy)
- Patients who are receiving any other investigational agents
- History of allergic reactions attributed to compounds of similar chemical or biologic composition to CB-839 HCl, carfilzomib, or dexamethasone
- Patients with uncontrolled intercurrent illness
- Any of the following:
- Pregnant women or women of reproductive ability who are unwilling to use two effective methods of contraception from the time of signing the informed consent form through 4 months after the last dose of study drug
- Nursing women
- And men who are unwilling to use birth control while taking the drug and for 4 months after stopping treatment
- Pregnant women are excluded from this study because carfilzomib is a PI with the potential for abortifacient effects. Because there is an unknown but potential risk for AEs in nursing infants secondary to treatment of the mother with CB-839 HCl, carfilzomib, and dexamethasone, breastfeeding should be discontinued if the mother is treated with this drug combination
- Adverse cardiac history (unstable angina, myocardial infarction less than 4 months, New York Heart Association \[NYHA\] class III or IV congestive heart failure \[CHF\], ejection fraction \[EF\] \< 40%, uncontrolled arrhythmias)
- +11 more criteria
