Study Details

This phase II trial compares shorter-duration versus longer-duration maintenance therapy with daratumumab for improving survival in patients who have received initial treatment with daratumumab for light chain (AL) amyloidosis. Maintenance therapy is treatment that is given to help keep cancer from coming back after it has disappeared following initial therapy. Daratumumab is in a class of medications called monoclonal antibodies. It binds to a protein called CD38, which is found on some types of immune cells and cancer cells, including myeloma cells. Daratumumab may block CD38 and help the immune system kill cancer cells. Daratumumab is commonly prescribed as initial treatment for patients with AL amyloidosis. However, it is not known what role daratumumab may play in the maintenance therapy period of patients with AL amyloidosis. This phase II trial compares shorter duration maintenance to longer duration maintenance for improving survival in patients with AL amyloidosis.

Arms

  • Experimental: Arm I (6 cycles of daratumumab)
    Patients receive daratumumab subcutaneously (SC) on day 1 of each cycle. Cycles repeat every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity for up to 6 cycles on study. Patients also undergo x-ray imaging at screening and undergo bone marrow aspiration, blood sample collection, and optional bone marrow biopsy throughout the study. Patients with cardiac involvement also undergo echocardiography throughout the trial.
  • Active Comparator: Arm II (18 cycles of daratumumab)
    Patients receive daratumumab SC on day 1 of each cycle. Cycles repeat every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity for up to 18 cycles on study. Patients also undergo x-ray imaging at screening and undergo bone marrow aspiration, blood sample collection, and optional bone marrow biopsy throughout the study. Patients with cardiac involvement also undergo echocardiography throughout the trial.
