This was a randomized, controlled, open-label, Phase 3 multicenter study which enrolled patients with Relapsed-Refractory Multiple Myeloma (RRMM) who were either double refractory to an Immunomodulatory Drug (IMiD) and a Proteasome Inhibitor (PI) (regardless of the number of prior lines of therapy), or had received at least 3 prior lines of therapy including an IMiD and a PI. Patients received treatment with melflufen+dexamethasone+daratumumab or daratumumab until documented progressive disease, unacceptable toxicity, or patient/treating physician decision. Patients in the daratumumab treatment arm had the option to receive treatment with melflufen+dexamethasone+daratumumab after confirmed progressive disease.

Progression Free Survival (PFS)
Time from the date of randomization to the date of first documentation of confirmed progressive disease (PD) or death due to any cause, whichever occurred first.
Time frame: From the date of randomization until the end of study (approximately 12 months).
Overall Response Rate (ORR)
Proportion of patients who achieve a best-confirmed response of stringent Complete Response (sCR), Complete Response (CR), Very Good Partial Response (VGPR), or Partial Response (PR).
Time frame: From the date of randomization until the end of study (approximately 12 months).
Duration of Response (DOR)
Time from the first evidence of confirmed assessment of sCR, CR, VGPR or PR to first confirmed disease progression, or death due to any cause. DOR is defined only for patients with a confirmed PR or better.
Time frame: From the date of randomization until the end of study (approximately 12 months).
Best Response
Proportion of patients with sCR, CR, VGPR, PR, Minimal Response (MR), Stable Disease (SD), PD, or non-evaluable (NE).
Time frame: From the date of randomization until the end of study (approximately 12 months).
Clinical Benefit Rate (CBR)
The proportion of patients who achieve a best confirmed response of sCR, CR, VGPR, PR, or MR.
Time frame: From the date of randomization until the end of study (approximately 12 months).
Duration of Clinical Benefit (DOCB)
Time from first evidence of confirmed assessment of sCR, CR, VGPR, PR, or MR to first confirmed disease progression, or to death due to any cause. DOCB is defined only for patients with a confirmed MR or better.
Time frame: From the date of randomization until the end of study (approximately 12 months).
Time to Response (TTR)
Time from randomization to the date of the first documented confirmed response in a patient who has responded with ≥PR.
Time frame: From the date of randomization until the end of study (approximately 12 months).
Time to Progression (TTP)
Time from randomization to the date of the first documented confirmed PD
Time frame: From the date of randomization until the end of study (approximately 12 months).
Time to Next Treatment (TTNT)
Time from randomization to the date of next anti-myeloma treatment or until death.
Time frame: From the date of randomization until the end of study (approximately 12 months).
Overall Survival (OS)
Time from randomization to death due to any cause.
Time frame: From the date of randomization until the end of study (approximately 12 months).
