Summary

The purpose of this study is to explore the combination of Elotuzumab in combination with autologous stem cell transplantation and lenalidomide maintenance to see what side effects it may have and how well it works for the treatment of symptomatic multiple myeloma diagnosed and treated with induction therapy in the past year.

Induction therapy is the first phase of treatment for multiple myeloma. The goal of induction therapy for multiple myeloma is to reduce the number of plasma cells in the bone marrow and the proteins that the plasma cells produce. Induction therapy is usually given for 3-4 weeks.

An autologous peripheral blood stem cell transplant is a procedure in which immature "stem cells" are collected and stored for future use. A high dose of chemotherapy is given to the patient to destroy myeloma cells, and the patient's stem cells are replaced.

The investigational drug in this program is elotuzumab. Elotuzumab is known as BMS-901608. Elotuzumab is a manufactured protein directed against a target found on multiple myeloma cells. Lenalidomide is currently approved for patients with multiple myeloma. Melphalan and cyclophosphamide, the drugs used during stem cell collection and transplant, are also approved by the U.S. FDA. Melphalan is an FDA-approved chemotherapy for multiple myeloma and is used as high-dose treatment prior to stem cell transplantation. Cyclophosphamide is an FDA-approved chemotherapy that may be used, either alone, or in combination with other drugs to treat multiple myeloma.

Conditions

Interventions

DRUG

Elotuzumab

The following must also be administered before any elotuzumab: Dexamethasone 8 mg IV (on the day of elotuzumab infusion 45-90 mins prior to the start of infusion), the following 30 - 90 minutes prior to start of infusion: H1 blocker: diphenhydramine (25 - 50 mg po or IV) or equivalent, H2 blocker: ranitidine (50 mg IV) or equivalent (adjusted for renal failure as indicated), acetaminophen (650 - 1000 mg po).

DRUG

Lenalidomide

On the days of elotuzumab administration, the dose of lenalidomide is to be administered at least 2 hours after completion of elotuzumab dosing. Aspirin 81 mg PO daily will also be prescribed for DVT prophylaxis.

OTHER

autologous PBMC reconstitution

Autologous peripheral blood mononuclear cell collection and reconstitution. PBMC will be collected from patients by standard apheresis procedures. Up to 25 ml of autologous plasma will also be recovered for dilution of cryopreserved products (if necessary). For reconstitution, Patients will be pre-medicated as per each institution's standard protocols prior to reinfusion of PBMC products. Patient ID will be checked and verified by nursing staff and the products will be re-infused by continuous intravenous infusion pump. Patient vital signs will be monitored every 15 minutes for the duration of the procedure as per standard reinfusion protocol.

OTHER

ASCT

Autologous peripheral blood stem cell transplantation. (stem cells from the patient's own marrow are "harvested," stored and then returned to the body (engrafted). To be done as part of standard of care.
