Treatment for relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma continues to evolve with the approval of highly effective anti-BCMA CAR T therapies in recent years. However, despite the high prevalence of renal insufficiency in this population, pivotal clinical trials have excluded patients with impaired renal function, leading to an urgent, unmet clinical need to develop safe and effective lymphodepleting regimens prior to CAR T administration for this population. In addition, renal insufficiency is linked to poor disease-related outcomes and is highly associated with several underserved populations. This study is testing the hypotheses that: 1. low-dose total body irradiation (TBI) in combination with cyclophosphamide (Cy) as lymphodepletion prior to administration of cilta-cel will be safe and tolerable in patients with multiple myeloma who have impaired renal function 2. low-dose TBI-Cy as lymphodepletion prior to cilta-cel will result in comparable CAR T expansion/persistence and disease response rates as those seen with standard lymphodepleting chemotherapy (fludarabine / cyclophosphamide).

RECRUITINGIncidence of dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs)
Toxicities considered possibly, probably, or definitely related to TBI-based lymphodepletion as graded per CTCAE v 5.0.
Time frame: Through 28 days post cilta-cel
Incidence of treatment related adverse events (TEAEs)
* Graded per CTCAE v 5.0. * All AEs will be collected from start of treatment through Day 28. After Day 28, only late toxicities of interest will be tracked and recorded.
Time frame: Through completion of follow-up (estimated to 1 year and 1 week)
Incidence of cytokine release syndrome (CRS)
Time frame: Through day 100
Incidence of immune effector cell associated neurotoxicity syndrome (ICANS)
Graded per ASTCT criteria
Time frame: Through day 100

Median duration of response (DoR)
Duration of response (DoR) is defined as the time from onset of response to progression or death due to any reason, whichever occurs earlier.
Time frame: Through completion of follow-up (estimated to 1 year and 1 week)
Duration of response
Duration of response (DoR) is defined as the time from onset of response to progression or death due to any reason, whichever occurs earlier.
Time frame: Through completion of follow-up (estimated to 1 year and 1 week)
Progression-free survival (PFS)
Progression-free survival (PFS) is defined as the time from start of treatment (Day 0) until date of disease progression.
Time frame: Through completion of follow-up (estimated to 1 year and 1 week)
Overall survival (OS)
Overall survival (OS) is defined as the time from start of treatment (Day 0) until date of death.
Time frame: Through completion of follow-up (estimated to 1 year and 1 week)
