This is a multicenter, prospective, randomized controlled trial designed to compare the quadruplet regimen of isatuximab, bortezomib, lenalidomide, and dexamethasone (Isa-VRD) with the standard triplet regimen (VRD) in newly diagnosed, transplant-ineligible patients with high-risk multiple myeloma (HRMM). Primary Hypothesis: The addition of isatuximab to VRD will significantly improve the MRD negativity rate at 12 months compared to VRD alone in HR-NDMM patients. Secondary Hypotheses: Isa-VRD will lead to higher overall response rates (ORR), deeper responses, and improved progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS). The safety profile of Isa-VRD will be manageable and consistent with the known safety profiles of its individual components.
This is a prospective, multicenter, randomized, open-label, Phase IIIb clinical trial. The study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the quadruplet regimen Isatuximab in combination with Bortezomib, Lenalidomide, and Dexamethasone (Isa-VRD) compared to the standard triplet regimen of Bortezomib, Lenalidomide, and Dexamethasone (VRD) in newly diagnosed high-risk multiple myeloma (HRMM) patients who are not candidates for autologous stem cell transplantation. A total of 117 participants will be enrolled and randomly assigned in a 2:1 ratio to receive either Isa-VRD (78 participants) or VRD (39 participants). The study consists of an induction-consolidation phase (cycles 1-12) followed by a maintenance phase (from cycle 13 onwards until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity). The primary endpoint is the rate of minimal residual disease (MRD) negativity in the bone marrow assessed by flow cytometry at 12 months of treatment. Key secondary endpoints include MRD negativity rate at 18 months, objective response rate (ORR), progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), and safety profile.

Participants in this group will receive the quadruplet induction-consolidation regimen of Isatuximab in combination with Bortezomib, Lenalidomide, and Dexamethasone (Isa-VRD) for 12 cycles (each cycle is 28 days). This will be followed by a maintenance therapy with Isatuximab, Bortezomib and Lenalidomide until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

MRD negativity rate at 12 months
MRD negativity rate at 12 months post-treatment initiation, assessed by EuroFlow (NGF) with a sensitivity of at least 10-5
Time frame: at 12 months post-treatment initiation
MRD negativity rate at 18 months
MRD negativity rate at 18 months post-treatment initiation, assessed by EuroFlow (NGF) with a sensitivity of at least 10-5
Time frame: at 18 months post-treatment initiation
Progression-free survival
from enrollment to first disease progression
Time frame: From date of enrollment until the date of first documented progression
overall survival
from enrollment to death with follow-up
Time frame: : From date of enrollment until the date of death from any cause
Overall response rate
The proportion of participants who achieve a predefined response or better according to the International Myeloma Working Group (IMWG) uniform response criteria. The response categories included in the ORR calculation are: stringent Complete Response (sCR), Complete Response (CR), Very Good Partial Response (VGPR), and Partial Response (PR). ORR will be calculated as (number of participants with sCR+CR+VGPR+PR) / (total number of response-evaluable participants) \* 100%.
Time frame: From randomization until the end of the induction-consolidation phase
