Oral triplet shows promise for relapsed/refractory myeloma


 

REPORTING FROM IMW 2019

Efficacy

In the 20 patients evaluable for response, the ORR was 60% (n = 12). One patient achieved a stringent complete response, three had a very good partial response, and eight had a partial response. The median time to response was 1 month.

The ORR was 92% (11/12) in lenalidomide-naive patients and 13% (1/8) in lenalidomide-exposed patients. The single responder in the lenalidomide-exposed group achieved a partial response.

Among lenalidomide-naive patients who received the recommended phase 2 dose, the median time on treatment was 12 months. The patient who achieved a stringent complete response remained on treatment at last follow-up, as did one partial responder and one patient with a very good partial response.

These results suggest the combination of selinexor, lenalidomide, and dexamethasone “is active, relatively well tolerated, and could warrant further investigation,” Dr. White said.

The STOMP trial is sponsored by Karyopharm Therapeutics. Dr. White disclosed relationships with Karyopharm, Amgen, Celgene, Janssen, Sanofi, and Takeda.
