In patients with transplant-eligible newly diagnosed multiple myeloma, induction therapy with a quadruplet regimen prior to autologous transplant is the standard of care. The phase III IFM2020-02-MIDAS study (NCT04934475) assessed a minimal residual disease (MRD)-driven consolidation and maintenance strategy following induction with isatuximab, carfilzomib, lenalidomide, and dexamethasone (IsaKRD). Here, we report safety and efficacy outcomes of six 28-day cycles of IsaKRD.

Multiple myeloma treatment has evolved significantly with the introduction of triplet and quadruplet regimens, notably incorporating anti-CD38 antibodies. While autologous stem cell transplantation remains a cornerstone of therapy, its role in the context of increasingly effective upfront treatments is debated. Current guidelines still recommend transplant for all eligible patients, especially those with high-risk features at diagnosis, despite concerns regarding the lack of overall survival benefits and the potential long-term toxicities associated with high-dose melphalan.

Previously, addition of isatuximab (Isa) to standard-of-care lenalidomide-bortezomib-dexamethasone (RVd) in transplant-eligible patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma in the GMMG-HD7 trial (ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT03617731) resulted in a significant increase of minimal residual disease negativity (MRD-) rates after induction therapy. A total of 662 patients were randomly assigned to receive induction therapy with Isa-RVd (n = 331) or RVd (n = 329), followed by single or tandem autologous stem-cell transplant and second random assignment to maintenance with lenalidomide alone or Isa-lenalidomide.

Background: In the CONPET study, multiple myeloma patients with abnormal 18FDG positron emission/computed tomography scan after upfront autologous stem cell transplantation were treated with four cycles of carfilzomib-lenalidomide-dexamethasone (KRd). Side effect registrations show that carfilzomib might cause dyspnea, cough, respiratory tract infections, and heart failure. The aims were to investigate patient-reported shortness of breath and dyspnea during KRd consolidation.

In newly diagnosed multiple myeloma (NDMM), measurable residual disease (MRD) status is prognostically important, but its role in treatment-decisions remains unclear. In a phase II trial (NCT04113018), we assessed daratumumab, carfilzomib, lenalidomide and dexamethasone (Dara-KRd) induction followed by a next generation sequencing (NGS) based MRD-adapted strategy. The primary endpoint was rate of complete response and stringent complete response (≥CR) after induction.
