The purpose of this study is to investigate the efficacy and safety of long-term administration of the oral proteasome inhibitor ixazomib as part of ixazomib in combination with lenalidomide and dexamethasone (IRd) therapy in patients with relapsed and/or refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM) treated initially with an injectable proteasome inhibitor-based therapy.
The drug being tested in this study is called Ixazomib. Ixazomib is being tested to treat people who have RRMM. This study will look at the effectiveness and safety of IRd in participants with RRMM previously receiving an injectable proteasome inhibitor-based therapy. This study consists of two treatment periods, Treatment Period I and Treatment Period II. The study will enroll 47 patients. All participants will receive following treatment: \- Combination therapy with Bortezomib + Lenalidomide + Dexamethasone (VRd) or combination therapy with Carfilzomib + Lenalidomide + Dexamethasone (KRd), standard recommended dose according to the package insert of each drug, as Treatment Period I, followed by Combination therapy with Ixazomib 4.0 mg + Lenalidomide 25 mg + Dexamethasone 40 mg (IRd) as Treatment Period II At start of this study, combination therapy of VRd or KRd will be decided by investigator as Treatment Period I after the baseline evaluations. After the start of Treatment Period I, a participant's eligibility for Treatment Period II is then determined 3 cycles. Participants who meet these eligibility criteria II subsequently continue into Treatment Period II and receive IRd. This multi-center trial will be conducted in Japan. It is anticipated that the treatment phase of this study will last up to 39 months, including 18 months for enrollment. Participants will make multiple visits to the clinic in treatment period, and follow-up period including a follow-up assessment after last dose of study drug.

Progression-Free Survival (PFS) Rate at 12 Months From the Start of Study Treatment
PFS rate was defined as the percentage of participants who were alive and have not had disease progression at 12 months after the date of first dose of treatment in Treatment Period I. PFS was assessed by International Myeloma Working Group (IMWG) Criteria (2014 version). Per IMWG criteria, progressive disease (PD): serum M-component increase ≥0.5 g/dl or urine M-component increase ≥200 mg/24-hour/ difference between involved and uninvolved free light chain (FLC) levels increase \>10 mg/dl or bone marrow plasma cell ≥10%/ development of new/ increase in size of existing bone lesions or soft tissue plasmacytoma or development of hypercalcemia.
Time frame: Up to 12 months
Overall Survival (OS) From the Start of Study Treatment
OS was defined as the period from the first dose of treatment in Treatment Period I to the time when death (regardless of the cause of death) was confirmed. Participants who were still alive were censored at the last confirmed date of survival or the date of data cut-off, whichever was earlier.
Time frame: Up to 39 months as a maximum
PFS From the Start of Study Treatment
PFS was defined as the period from the first dose of treatment in Treatment Period I to the time of confirmed PD or confirmed death (regardless of the cause of death), whichever is earlier. PFS was assessed by IMWG Criteria.

Percentage of Participants Who Achieved VGPR or Better (CR + VGPR)
VGPR or better (CR + VGPR) were assessed by IMWG Criteria. Per IMWG criteria, PR (partial response): ≥50% reduction of serum M protein+reduction in 24-hour urinary M protein by ≥90%/ to \<200 mg/24-hour or ≥50% decrease in difference between involved and uninvolved free light chain (FLC) levels/ ≥50% reduction in bone marrow plasma cells, if ≥30% at baseline/ ≥50% reduction in size of soft tissue plasmacytomas. VGPR (very good PR): serum+urine M-protein detectable by immunofixation but not on electrophoresis/ ≥90% reduction in serum M-protein+urine Mprotein level \<100 mg/24-hour.

Number of Participants With Minimal Residual Disease (MRD) Positive or Negative in Bone Marrow in Participants Who Achieved CR
MRD was measured by the flow cytometry method using bone marrow aspiration. Reported data were numbers of participants with MRD positive and negative in bone marrow in participants who achieved CR. MRD positive was categorized into three sensitivity levels with the numbers of cells counted (10\^-4 to - Max; 10\^-5 to 10\^-4; 10\^-6 to 10\^-5). MRD negativity is defined as absence of MRD and MRD positivity is defined as presence of MRD. If a participant is MRD-positive at their first evaluation and MRD-negative after re-examination, the participant will be considered to be MRD-negative. CR will be assessed by IMWG Criteria.
Time frame: Up to 39 months as a maximum
Percentage of Participants Who Achieve or Maintain Any Best Response
Best response is defined as the cumulative numbers of participants who achieve each level of best response including PR, VGPR and CR assessed with IMWG Criteria, after each cycle of treatment.

Patient-Reported Outcome Health-Related Quality of Life (HRQoL) Based on Global Health Status Scale of European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC) Quality of Life Questionnaire-C30 (EORTC QLQ-C30)
EORTC QLQ-C30 contains 30 items across 5 functional scales (physical, role, cognitive, emotional, and social), 9 symptom scales (fatigue, nausea and vomiting, pain, dyspnea, sleep disturbance, appetite loss, constipation, diarrhea, and financial difficulties) and a global health status/QOL scale (Global Health Status). EORTC QLQ-C30 contains 28 questions (4-point scale where 1=Not at all \[best\] to 4=Very Much \[worst\]) and 2 questions (7-point scale where 1=Very poor \[worst\] to 7= Excellent \[best\]). Raw scores are converted into scale scores ranging from 0 to 100. For the functional scales and the global health status/QOL scale, higher scores represent better QOL; for the symptom scales, lower scores represent better QOL.
Time frame: Baseline and End of Treatment (Up to 23 cycles for VRd Group, Up to 32 cycles for KRd and Overall Group, each cycle was of 28 days)
Patient-Reported Outcome HRQoL Based on EORTC Multiple Myeloma Module (EORTC QLQ-MY20) Score
EORTC QLQ-MY20 has 20 items across 4 independent subscales, 2 functional subscales (body image, future perspective), and 2 symptoms scales (disease symptoms, and side effects of treatment). Scores are averaged, and transformed to 0-100 scale. For the functional scales, high scores represent improvement. For the symptom scales, higher scores represent worsening.
Time frame: Baseline and End of Treatment (Up to 23 cycles for VRd Group, Up to 32 cycles for KRd and Overall Group, each cycle was of 28 days)
Evaluation of Modified Quality-Adjusted Life-Years (QALYs)
Modified QALYs was calculated from the score of EORTC QLQ-C30. The health-related quality of life scale score of EORTC QLQ-C30 was converted into a utility value ranging from 0 (dead) to 1 (perfect health), and used to adjust the value of survival years; this value was assessed as the modified QALY.
Time frame: Up to 39 months as a maximum
