This is an open label phase II study designed to assess the efficacy and safety of the combination isatuximab-dexamethasone pre and post transplant in relapsed MM patients. Before enrolment, patients have already received a reinduction therapy, as per local protocols, in order to achieve an optimal cytoreduction. Since carfilzomib-based regimens (eg. carfilzomib-lenalidomide-dexamethasone or carfilzomib-dexamethasone) are the current standard in Italy, for uniformity the use of one of these combinations is recommended. However, any cytoreductive treatment, excluding anti-CD38 antibodies containing regimens, as per local practice, is acceptable. During this period, if necessary, it will be possible to mobilize and collect peripheral blood stem cells. After the pre-enrollment cytoreduction period (reinduction therapy), patients have achieved at least a PR according to IMWG Response criteria. After study enrolment, patients will receive 3 courses of isatuximab in combination with dexamethasone; after cycle 3 patients will receive ASCT, that will be conditioned with melphalan and will be followed by reinfusion of cryopreserved autologous stem cells. At 2 months after ASCT, patients will start maintenance, consisting in the administration of isatuximab in combination with dexamethasone for 12 cycles. Starting from cycle 13 onwards, only isatuximab will be administered until progression or intolerance.

MRD negativity
The rate of MRD negativity is determined as the proportion of patients with NGF MRD negativity (10-5 sensitivity level) within 12 months after ASCT using the intention-to-treat principle. For patients who withdraw from the study or are lost to follow up before this timepoint, the best MRD assessment will be considered. Patients will be classified as MRD positive if they have only MRD positive test results or do not undergo MRD assessment.
Time frame: Within 12 months after ASCT
Response rate
Response rate (sCR, CR, VGPR, PR, ORR) will be evaluated according to IMWG Response criteria after induction, transplant and maintenance.
Time frame: 5/6 years
TTP (time to progression)
TTP will be measured from the date of ICF to the date of first observation of PD, or deaths for PD. Subjects who have not progressed or who withdraw from the study or die from causes other than PD will be censored at the time of the last complete disease assessment. Subjects lost to follow-up will also be censored at the time of last complete disease assessment.
Time frame: 5/6 years
PFS (progression free survival)
PFS will be measured from the date of ICF to the date of first observation of PD, or death from any cause as an event. Subjects who have not progressed or who withdraw from the study or who were lost to follow-up will be censored at the time of the last complete disease assessment.
Time frame: 5/6 years
TNT (time to next therapy)
TNT will be measured from the date of eligibility confirmation to the date of next anti-myeloma therapy. Death due to any cause before starting therapy will be considered an event. Subjects who have not progressed or who withdraw from the study will be censored at the time of the last complete disease assessment. Subjects lost to FU will also be censored at the time of last contact.
Time frame: 5/6 years
PFS2 (progression free survival 2)
PFS2 will be measured from the date of ICF to the date of observation of second disease progression (i.e. progression after the second line of therapy) or death to any cause as an event. In case of date of second progression is not available, date of start of third line treatment can be used. Subjects who have not progressed or who withdraw from the study will be censored at the time of the last complete disease assessment. All subjects who were lost to follow-up prior to the end of the study, have not progressed, and are still alive will also be censored at the time of last contact.
Time frame: 5/6 years
OS (overall survival)
OS is defined as the time between ICF date and death, regardless cause of death. Subjects who withdraw consent will be censored at the time of withdrawal. Subjects who are still alive at the cut-off Page 48 of 72 date of final analysis will be censored at the cut-off date. Subjects lost to FU will also be censored at the time of last contact.
Time frame: 5/6 years
DOR (duration of response)
DOR is defined as time between first documentation of response (achievement of at least a PR) and PD with deaths owning to causes other than progression not counted, but censored. Responders without disease progression at the cut-off date of final analysis will be censored either at the time of lost to follow-up, at the time of death due to other cause than PD, or at the time of last contact.
Time frame: 5/6 years
Time to PR (time to partial response)
Time to PR will be measured from the date of ICF to the date of first observation of PR (Partial Response). Subjects who achieved response better than PR will be consider that PR is achieved. Subjects who withdraw from the study will be censored at the time of the last complete disease assessment. Subjects have not achieved a PR, and are still alive at the cut-off date of final analysis will be censored at the cut-off date. All subjects who were lost to FU will also be censored at the time of last contact.
Time frame: 5/6 years
Time to VGPR (time to very good partial response)
Time to VGPR will be measured from the date of ICF to the date of first observation of VGPR (Very Good Partial Response). Subjects who achieved response better than VGPR will be consider that VGPR is achieved. Subjects who withdraw from the study will be censored at the time of the last complete disease assessment. Subjects have not achieved a VGPR, and are still alive at the cut-off date of final analysis will be censored at the cut-off date. All subjects who were lost to FU will also be censored at the time of last contact.
Time frame: 5/6 years
Time to CR (time to complete response)
Time to CR will be measured from the date of ICF to the date of first observation of CR (Complete Partial Response). Subjects who achieved response better than CR will be consider that CR is achieved. Subjects who withdraw from the study will be censored at the time of the last complete disease assessment. Subjects have not achieved a CR, and are still alive at the cut-off date of final analysis will be censored at the cut-off date. All subjects who were lost to FU will also be censored at the time of last contact. Difference will be calculated in 30-day months.
Time frame: 5/6 years
Time to sCR (time to stringent complete response)
Time to sCR will be measured from the date of ICF to the date of first observation of sCR (stringent Complete Partial Response). Subjects who withdraw from the study will be censored at the time of the last complete disease assessment. Subjects have not achieved a sCR, and are still alive at the cut-off date of final analysis will be censored at the cut-off date. All subjects who were lost to FU will also be censored at the time of last contact. Difference will be calculated in 30-day months.
Time frame: 5/6 years
Rate of 1 year sustained MRD (minimal residue disease) negativity
Rate of 1 year sustained MRD negativity by NGF will be also evaluated, and correlated with PFS and OS.
Time frame: 5/6 years
MRD (minimal residue disease) negativity
The rate of MRD negativity is determined as the proportion of patients with NGF MRD negativity (10-5 sensitivity level) within 12 months after ASCT using the intention-to-treat principle. For patients who withdraw from the study or are lost to follow up before this timepoint, the best MRD assessment will be considered. Patients will be classified as MRD positive if they have only MRD positive test results or do not undergo MRD assessment.
Time frame: 5/6 years
24 months MRD negativity rate
The 24 months MRD negativity rate is determined as the proportion of patients with MRD negativity (≥10-5 sensitivity level, NGF) after 12 months using ITT principle. Patients will be classified as MRD positive if they have only MRD positive test results or do not undergo MRD assessment/sample not adequate.
Time frame: 5/6 years
Analysis of safety
The analysis of safety as defined by type, frequency and severity will be done primarily by tabulation of the incidence of Adverse Events as defined by the National Cancer Institute (NCI) Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE), version 5.0. In the by-subject analysis, a subject having the same event more than once will be counted only once. Adverse Events will be summarized by worst CTCAE grade.
Time frame: 5/6 years
Dose reduction rate
Dose reduction will be done primarily by tabulation of the incidence of dose reduction and causes.
Time frame: 5/6 years
Time to discontinuation of study drug
Time to discontinuation will be measured from the date of first dose of study drugs to the date of discontinuation due to AE or Death for AE/SPM. Subjects who discontinued drugs due to PD, or death for cause other than AE/SPM will be considered a competitive event. Subjects has not discontinued, and are still alive and on treatment at the cut-off date of final analysis will be censored at the cut-off date. All subjects who were lost to FU will also be censored at the time of last contact.
Time frame: 5/6 years
