Brief Summary
This is a randomized, multicenter, Phase 3, open-label study evaluating subcutaneous (SC) vs intravenous (IV) administration of isatuximab in combination with pomalidomide and dexamethasone (Pd) in RRMM patients (study participants) who have received at least 1 prior line of therapy including lenalidomide and a proteasome inhibitor (PI). Eligible participants will be randomized 1:1 into 1 of 2 study arms: Arm SC: Isatuximab SC + Pd Arm IV: Isatuximab IV + Pd Participants will be allowed to continue therapy until disease progression, unacceptable adverse events (AEs), participant request to discontinue therapy or any other reason, whichever comes first.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (2)
Overall Response Rate (ORR)
ORR by independent review committee (IRC) using 2016 international myeloma working group (IMWG) criteria:Percentage of participants with complete response (CR),stringent CR (sCR),very good partial response (VGPR) \& partial response (PR).CR:negative immunofixation on serum and urine,disappearance of any soft tissue plasmacytomas (STP),\<5% plasma cells in bone marrow (BM) aspirates \& a normal free light chain(FLC)ratio (0.26-1.65).sCR:CR plus no clonal cells in BM biopsy. VGPR:serum \& urine M-protein detectable by immunofixation, not electrophoresis;\>=90% reduction in serum M-protein plus urine M-protein level\<100mg/24hour(h);\>=90% decrease in sum of maximal perpendicular diameter (SPD) compared to baseline in STP;FLC only:\>=90% decrease in difference between involved and uninvolved FLC levels.PR:\>=50% reduction of serum M-protein and reduction in 24h urine M-protein by \>=90% or to \<200mg/24h.In addition to above, if present at baseline,\>=50% reduction in size SPD of STPs also required.
From first dose of study medication administration (Day 1) up to PCD (06-Nov-2024), approximately 28 months
Observed Concentration Before Dosing (Ctrough) of Isatuximab at Steady State
Ctrough at steady state was the observed plasma concentration collected on pre-dose at Cycle 6 Day 1 (equivalent to prior to Cycle 6 Day 1) of isatuximab administration dose.
Pre-dose at Cycle 6 Day 1
Secondary Outcomes (55)
Very Good Partial Response or Better Rate
From first dose of study medication administration (Day 1) up to PCD (06-Nov-2024), approximately 28 months
Ctrough of Isatuximab at 4 Weeks (CT4W)
Pre-dose at Cycle 2 Day 1 (at 4 weeks)
Percentage of Participants With Infusion Reactions
From first dose of study medication (Day 1) up to 30 days after the last dose of study medication, approximately 28 months
Percentage of Participants Who Responded Very Satisfied and Satisfied to the 'Patient Experience and Satisfaction Questionnaire (PESQ-FU)': Satisfaction With Injection Method' (Item-8) at Cycle 5 Day 15
Cycle 5 Day 15
Duration of Response (DOR)
From first dose of study medication administration (Day 1) up to PCD (06-Nov-2024), approximately 28 months
- +50 more secondary outcomes
Study Arms (2)
Isatuximab Subcutaneous (SC)
EXPERIMENTALIsatuximab dose will be administered SC weekly for 4 weeks during Cycle 1 (Days 1, 8, 15, and 22) and Day 1 and 15 of subsequent cycles. Each cycle will be 28 days in duration. Pomalidomide dose will be taken orally on Day 1 to Day 21 of each cycle at the time that is the most convenient for the participants prior to or after isatuximab administration, preferably at the same time every day. Dexamethasone will be taken orally on Day 1, 8, 15 and 22 (to be repeated every 28 days). Participants may receive other treatments as background treatment and/or rescue medication.
Isatuximab Intravenous (IV)
ACTIVE COMPARATORIsatuximab dose will be administered via IV infusion weekly for 4 weeks during Cycle 1 (Days 1, 8, 15, and 22) and Day 1 and 15 of subsequent cycles. Each cycle will be 28 days. Pomalidomide dose will be taken orally on Day 1 to Day 21 of each cycle at the time that is the most convenient for the participants prior to or after isatuximab administration, preferably at the same time every day. Dexamethasone will be taken orally on Day 1, 8, 15 and 22 (to be repeated every 28 days). Participants may receive other treatments as background treatment and/or rescue medication.
