Study of AZD0120 in Newly Diagnosed Multiple Myeloma Ineligible for ASCT

This is a randomised, multicentre, controlled, open-label, Phase III global study comparing the efficacy and safety of standard induction regimens (IsaVRd and DRd) followed by AZD0120 versus standard induction regimens followed by continuous therapy (IsaRd and DRd) in participants with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma (NDMM) who are ineligible for autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT) as initial therapy.

About this study

The primary objective is to demonstrate the superiority of IsaVRd or DRd induction followed by a single administration of AZD0120 compared to IsaVRd or DRd induction followed by continuous IsaRd or DRd in terms of progression-free survival (PFS) according to IMWG 2016 criteria, and as assessed by Blinded Independent Central Review (BICR) and miminal residual disease (MRD) negative complete response (CR) rate at 9 months post-randomisation in participants with NDMM who are ineligible to receive ASCT as initial therapy.

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: No

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

  • Participant has significant neurological or psychiatric condition posing risk or impairing evaluation.
  • Participant has any other significant medical condition that increases unacceptable risk, interferes with therapy delivery, or confounds evaluation.
  • Participant has a history of a prior non-haematologic malignancy unless the participant has been disease-free with no evidence of recurrence for ≥ 2 years.
  • Participant has a history of haematologic malignancies, other than MM, regardless of remission status.
  • Participant is positive for any of the following:
  • HIV: Known to be seropositive for HIV (including any history of HIV).
  • Chronic or active hepatitis B.
  • Active hepatitis C: Hepatitis C infection.
  • Additional local requirements for the testing for infectious diseases and exclusions of applicable participants should be followed per local regulations.
  • Participant has clinically significant cardiovascular disease.
  • Participant has COPD with an FEV1 < 50% of predicted normal.
  • Additional exclusion for participants who are planned to receive IsaVRd as induction: Participant has peripheral neuropathy Grade 4, Grade 3, Grade 2, or Grade 1 with pain.

Primary outcomes

  1. PFS in NDMM who are ineligible to receive ASCT is measured to demonstrate the superiority of IsaVRd or DRd induction followed by AZD0120 compared to IsaVRd or DRd induction followed by continuous DRd or IsaRd.

    Time frame: Up to 9 years.

    PFS: defined as time from randomisation until progression according to IMWG 2016 criteria as assessed by BICR, or death due to any cause, whichever occurs first.

  2. MRD negative CR rate at 9M in NDMM who are ineligible to receive ASCT is measured to demonstrate the superiority of IsaVRd or DRd induction followed by AZD0120 compared to IsaVRd or DRd induction followed by continuous DRd or IsaRd

    Time frame: Up to 9 years.

    MRD negative CR rate at 9 months: defined as the proportion of participants with MRD negative status (at threshold of 10-5) and have a response of CR or sCR (according to the IMWG 2016 criteria) as assessed by BICR at 9 months (± 3 months) from randomisation before initiation of subsequent anti-myeloma therapy.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Complete Response Rate

    Time frame: Up to 9 years.

    The proportion of participants who achieved CR or better according to IMWG 2016 criteria, as assessed by BICR

  2. Overall Survival

    Time frame: Up to 9 years.

    Time from randomisation until date of death due to any cause

  3. Number and percentage of participants with adverse events as graded by CTCAE v6 and ASTCT Consensus Grading criteria

    Time frame: Up to 9 years.

    Adverse Event Incidence

  4. Concentration of Circulating CAR-T+ Cells in Peripheral Blood

    Time frame: Up to 9 years.

    Quantification of circulating CAR-T+ cell levels by measuring CAR transgene in peripheral blood and CK parameters of AZD0120 will be measured to characterise the cellular kinetics of AZD0120 in blood.

  5. Number and percentage of participants with incidence of ADAs against AZD0120

    Time frame: Up to 9 years.

    Assessment humoral immunogenicity of AZ0120 based on incidence of ADAs.

  6. Patient Reported Outcomes

    Time frame: Up to 9 years.

    Change from baseline in bone pain severity measured by the European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer Item Library 469 single bone pain item (EORTC IL469 - score range 0 - 100, with higher scores indicating worse bone pain) in participants with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma ineligible for autologous stem cell transplantation as initial therapy.

  7. Patient Reported Outcomes

    Time frame: Up to 9 years.

    Change from baseline in fatigue severity, physical functioning, and global health status/quality of life measured by the European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire-Core 30 fatigue, physical functioning, and global health status/quality of life scales (EORTC QLQ-C30 - score range 0 to 100; higher scores indicate worse fatigue, better physical functioning, and better general health status/quality of life) in participants with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma ineligible for autologous stem cell transplantation as initial therapy.

  8. Overall Response Rate

    Time frame: Up to 9 years

    Proportion of participants who achieved PR or better according to IMWG 2016 criteria

  9. Duration of Response

    Time frame: Up to 9 years

    Time from first documented confirmed response (PR or better) until date of documented PD per IMWG 2016 criteria or death due to any cause, whichever occurs first.

  10. Time to Response

    Time frame: Up to 9 years

    Time from randomisation until the date of first documented objective response (PR or better), as assessed per IMWG 2016 criteria.

  11. MRD negative CR rate

    Time frame: Up to 9 years

    Proportion of participants who have MRD negative status and have a response of CR or sCR (according to the IMWG 2016 criteria) at any time after the date of randomisation and before initiation of subsequent therapy.

  12. Rate of sustained MRD negative CR

    Time frame: Up to 9 years

    Proportion of participants who have achieved MRD negative status and have a response of CR or sCR

  13. Progression Free Survival 2 (PFS2)

    Time frame: Up to 9 years

    Time from randomisation to progression on next line of therapy, as assessed by Investigator, or death due to any cause, whichever occurs first
