Abstract Isatuximab is an immunoglobulin G1κ monoclonal antibody that binds with high affinity to CD38 expressed on plasma cells. Anti-CD38 antibodies have shown efficacy as monotherapy and in combination in a variety of settings for patients with multiple myeloma and light chain (AL) amyloidosis. This multicenter, cooperative group phase 2 trial was designed to evaluate hematologic response, organ response, and safety of isatuximab monotherapy for the treatment of relapsed AL amyloidosis. Isatuximab at 20 mg/kg was administered IV weekly during the first 28-day cycle, and then every other week during cycles 2 to 24. Forty-three patients were registered, with 35 patients being evaluable for response. The overall hematologic response rate was 77.1%, with 57% of patients achieving a very good partial response (VGPR) or better. The median time to partial response (PR) or better was 1.1 months. Renal response occurred in 50% (7/14) of patients with renal involvement, and cardiac response occurred in 57% (8/14) of patients who were evaluable utilizing N-terminal pro b-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) with cardiac involvement. The most common treatment-related grade ≥3 adverse events included lymphopenia (n = 3, 8.5%) and infection (n = 2, 6%). Isatuximab demonstrated substantial efficacy in previously treated patients with AL amyloidosis, and was associated with a good safety profile. This trial was registered at www.clinicaltrials.gov as #NCT03499808.

Importance Monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (MGUS) is associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease. Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists (RAs) have demonstrated cardiorenal benefits in patients with type 2 diabetes, but their effectiveness in patients with MGUS remains unexplored. Objective To assess the effectiveness of GLP-1 RAs for primary prevention of major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events (MACCE) in patients with MGUS and diabetes. Design, Setting, and Participants This retrospective cohort study used a propensity score–matched analysis of data from the TriNetX Global Database, encompassing patients diagnosed with diabetes and MGUS between January 1, 2018, and January 13, 2023. Patients with prior heart failure (HF), ischemic heart disease, coronary revascularization, or stroke or transient ischemic attack before MGUS diagnosis were excluded. The cohort was divided into 2 groups: GLP-1 RA users and nonusers at baseline. After 1:1 propensity score matching, GLP-1 RA users and nonusers were compared up to 5 years from the MGUS diagnosis date. Data analyses were completed January 19, 2025. Exposure GLP-1 RA use within 1 year before MGUS diagnosis. Main Outcomes and Measures The primary end point was MACCE, defined as a composite of all-cause mortality, new-onset HF, acute coronary syndrome, and stroke or transient ischemic attack. Secondary end points included individual MACCE components, decompensated HF, and acute kidney injury or end-stage kidney disease. Results A total of 4871 patients with MGUS (mean [SD] age, 68.9 [10.1] years; 2366 [48.5%] male) were included (473 GLP-1 RA users and 4398 non-users). A total of 460 users were matched to 460 nonusers, with balanced characteristics (mean [SD] age, 65.0 [10.6] vs 65.1 [11.0] years; 229 [49.7%] male vs 234 [50.8%] male), including 14 patients (3.0%) vs 13 patients (2.8%) identifying as Asian, 8 (21.3%) vs 92 (20.0%) as Black or African American, 25 patients (5.4%) vs 20 patients (4.3%) as Hispanic or Latino, and 243 patients (52.8%) vs 250 patients (54.3%) as White. GLP-1 RA use was associated with a significantly lower risk of MACCE (hazard ratio [HR], 0.75; 95% CI, 0.60-0.93). Significant reductions were also observed in all-cause mortality (HR, 0.57; 95% CI, 0.37-0.87), new-onset HF (HR, 0.69; 95% CI, 0.54-0.90), decompensated HF (HR, 0.60; 95% CI, 0.43-0.84), and acute kidney injury or end-stage kidney disease (HR, 0.73; 95% CI, 0.57-0.92). Conclusions and Relevance The findings of this cohort study of GLP-1 RA use vs no use in patients with MGUS and diabetes suggest the potential of GLP-1 RA for primary prevention of MACCE. These findings warrant further investigation in prospective randomized trials.

7540 Background: The combination of a proteasome inhibitor (PI) with lenalidomide (R) and dex (d) has been a common initial therapy for newly diagnosed myeloma (NDMM). We designed a randomized phase 3 trial to examine if carfilzomib (K), a next generation PI, improved progression free survival (PFS) compared with bortezomib (V) when either is combined with Rd for initial treatment of NDMM. Initial analysis at a median follow up of 15.3 months (mos) showed comparable PFS for both triplets. We present the long-term results of the trial with ~70 months median follow up. Methods: Patients (Pts) with NDMM, were randomized 1:1 to receive VRd or KRd for 36 weeks followed by a 2 nd randomization (1:1) to indefinite versus 2 yrs of R maintenance. Pts without del17p, t(14;16), t(14;20), plasma cell leukemia or high-risk GEP70 profile, were enrolled. VRd arm included V 1.3 mg/m 2 on days(d) 1, 4, 8, and 11 (d1, 8 for cycles 9-12), R 25 mg d1-14, and d 20 mg d1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 9, 11, 12 of a 3-week (wk) cycle for 12 cycles, while pts in the KRd arm received K 36 mg/m 2 d1, 2, 8, 9, 15, 16 with R 25 mg daily on d1-21 and d 40 mg wkly, in 4 wk cycles for 9 cycles. Maintenance used 15 mg R d1-21 q4 wks. Results: The study accrued 1087 pts (VRd=542, KRd=545). Median age was 65y; baseline characteristics including intent to transplant were similar across the arms. Median induction duration (mos; IQR) was 7.2 (3.4-8.9) and 8.4 (5.1-9.1) for VRd and KRd, respectively; 59.8% in VRd and 45.3% in KRd did not proceed to Step 2. Median PFS (mos) was VRd=41.9 and KRd=44.6; HR = 0.89 (0.76-1.04). Toxicity data, PFS sensitivity analyses and OS probabilities are as in the table. Conclusions: In this randomized trial, with median follow up of nearly 6 years, KRd and VRd had comparable PFS and OS in an intent to treat analysis. While similar numbers proceeded to SCT in the 2 arms, more did so during induction in the VRd arm while more patients in the KRd arm went to SCT later. VRd remains a standard triplet induction regimen in standard and intermediate risk NDMM, and a suitable backbone for 4 drug combinations. Clinical trial information: NCT01863550 .

Background: Isatuximab is an IgG1κ monoclonal antibody that binds with high affinity to CD38 expressed on plasma cells in light chain (AL) amyloidosis. Anti-CD38 antibodies have shown efficacy alone and in combination in a variety of settings for patients with multiple myeloma and light chain (AL) amyloidosis. Here we report the final analysis of a multi-center, cooperative group prospective phase II study of isatuximab in previously treated patients with AL amyloidosis (NCT03499808). Methods: Eligibility included: age ≥18 years, relapsed or refractory systemic AL amyloidosis, ≥1 prior line of therapy, measurable disease, ≥1 organ involved, not refractory to daratumumab, Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status ≤2, creatinine clearance ≥25 mL/min, and NT-proBNP ≤8500 pg/mL. Patients received isatuximab intravenously 20 mg/kg weekly during the first 28-day cycle and every other week during cycles 2 through 24 for a maximum of 24 cycles. The primary objective was hematologic response with secondary objectives of organ response, safety, progression free survival, and overall survival. Results: Forty-three patients were registered, with 35 patients being eligible for response. The median age of the evaluable patients was 70 years (range, 40.1-79.5) with the majority (66%, n=23) having a lambda clonal plasma cell dyscrasia. The most common cytogenetic abnormality using fluorescence in situ hybridization was translocation t(11;14) observed in ten patients (29%). The most common prior treatment was a proteasome inhibitor (94%, n=33) while 46% (n=16) had undergone autologous stem cell transplant. Eighteen patients (51%) had single organ involvement while 17 (49%) had multiple organs involved. The distribution of organ involvement was typical for AL amyloidosis with cardiac involvement in 25 patients (71%) and renal involvement in 14 (40%). As of December 30, 2022, no new safety concerns were identified. The most common treatment related grade ≥3 adverse events included lymphopenia (n=3, 8.5%) and infection (n=2, 6%). The overall hematologic response rate was 77.1% with a rapid median time to partial response or better of 1.1 months. Two patients (6%) achieved a hematological complete response (CR), 18 (51%) had a very good partial response (VGPR), and 7 (20%) had a partial response (PR). At 24 months from hematologic response, the rate of patients still in response was estimated at 81% (95% confidence interval (CI): 67, 96). The 24-month estimated overall survival was 85% (95% CI: 73%, 97%). Renal response occurred in 50% (7/14) of patients with renal involvement with a median time to response of 18.5 months. Cardiac response occurred in 56% (14/25) of patients with cardiac involvement with a median time to response of 16.6 months. Conclusions: Isatuximab monotherapy resulted in high rates of hematologic response in relapsed AL amyloidosis which translated into organ responses. Treatment appears safe and was well tolerated.

Background and significance: Light chain (AL) amyloidosis is a plasma cell malignancy characterized by the production of amyloidgenic clonal light chains that deposit in various tissues. The addition of daratumumab to bortezomib, cyclophosphamide and dexamethasone (Dara-VCD) has improved the depth of hematologic and organ responses and is an approved induction therapy in newly diagnosed AL amyloid patients (DOI: 10.1056/NEJMoa2028631). However, this approach has not yet demonstrated an overall survival (OS) benefit and follow up remains short. With strict adherence to eligibility criteria, in particular severity of cardiac involvement, autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) as consolidative therapy is safe with transplant related mortality on par with multiple myeloma. This approach generates deep and sustained responses, but it is unclear if it offers an additional survival benefit following Dara-VCD induction. The only randomized trial evaluating the role of ASCT in AL amyloid is outdated (DOI: 10.1056/NEJMoa070484) and no randomized data exist to inform the optimal use of ASCT in the era of Dara-VCD induction. Furthermore, multi-organ involvement in AL amyloid drives morbidity and mortality thus the impact of any consolidative therapy on cardiac and renal involvement in addition to overall survival but must be defined. Finally, the approval of Dara-VCD therapy was based on complete hematologic response rates but there is increasing data demonstrating that achieving minimal residual disease (MRD) negativity by either bone marrow next generation flow cytometry (DOI: 10.1002/ajh.26562) or peripheral blood mass spectrometry (DOI: 10.1038/s41408-020-0291-8) generates improved organ response, hematologic progression free survival, and possibly OS. Methods: This randomized phase 3 SWOG led intergroup trial (S2213; NCT06022939) is being conducted within the United States and will accrue a total of 143 participants per arm. The primary endpoint will compare MOD-PFS (major organ deterioration progression free survival: defined as time from randomization to death, cardiac/renal progression, or hematologic progression) between participants receiving an ASCT with those receiving 3 cycles of Dara-VCD consolidation following 3 cycles of uniform Dara-VCD induction. Following the assigned consolidation, all patients will receive 18 months of daratumumab maintenance therapy. A median MOD-PFS of 31 months is anticipated in the non-ASCT arm. This study has 90% power and a two-sided significance level of 0.05 to detect a hazard ratio of 0.62 corresponding to a MOD-PFS of 50 months in the ASCT arm. Important additional endpoints include OS, hematologic PFS, cardiac and renal responses, MRD negativity both by peripheral blood mass spectrometry and bone marrow next generation flow cytometry, delayed utilization of ASCT, and quality of life. Key inclusion criteria include non-severe cardiac AL amyloid (NT-proBNP <5000; TnT < 0.06; NYHA I or II, EF ≥ 40%), CrCl ≥30 mL/min, serum dFLC > 2 mg/dL, and supine systolic BP ≥ 90 mmHg. Importantly, patients are permitted to have up to one full cycle or 28 days of any plasma cell directed therapy prior to enrollment. This trial was activated on 12/1/2023 with the first patient enrolled 07/01/2024.

TPS7575 Background: Light chain (AL) amyloidosis is a plasma cell malignancy characterized by the production of amyloidgenic clonal light chains that deposit in various tissues. The addition of daratumumab to bortezomib, cyclophosphamide and dexamethasone (Dara-VCD) has improved depth of hematologic and organ responses. However, this approach has not yet demonstrated an overall survival (OS) benefit with short follow-up. Autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT) consolidation remains safe and is associated with deep and durable hematologic responses with an 83% 2-year progression free survival (PFS) and up to 72% of patients achieving a VGPR or better, comparable to Dara-VCD (79%). In multiple myeloma, ASCT improved PFS even in patients who are MRD negative at the end of standard induction therapy. It is thus reasonable to consider that ASCT might provide similar benefits in AL patients. No randomized data exist to inform the optimal use of ASCT in the era of Dara-VCD. Methods: This randomized phase 3 SWOG led intergroup trial will accrue a total of 143 participants per arm and compare MOD-PFS (major organ deterioration progression free survival: defined as time from randomization to death, cardiac/renal progression, or hematologic progression) between participants receiving an ASCT with those receiving Dara-VCD consolidation following uniform Dara-VCD induction. A median MOD-PFS of 31 months is anticipated in the non-ASCT arm. This study has 90% power and a two-sided significance level of 0.05 to detect a hazard ratio of 0.62 corresponding to a MOD-PFS of 50 months in the ASCT arm.

Background: Isatuximab (SAR650984) is an IgG1k monoclonal antibody that binds with high affinity to CD38 expressed on plasma cells in AL amyloidosis. It has been shown to be efficacious and well tolerated in relapsed and refractory multiple myeloma as a single agent and in combination. Here we report on the preliminary results of a prospective multi-center, phase II study of isatuximab in previously treated patients with AL amyloidosis (NCT03499808). Methods: Eligibility included age ≥ 18 years, relapsed or refractory systemic AL amyloidosis, ≥ 1 prior line of therapy, measurable disease (defined as a positive monoclonal serum immunofixation electrophoresis (IFE) or urine IFE, a serum free light chain ratio outside of the normal range (0.25-1.65), and a difference in the involved versus the uninvolved serum free light chain of ≥ 4.5 mg/dL), at least one organ involved, not refractory to daratumumab, ECOG performance status 0-2, creatinine clearance ≥25 mL/min as measured by 24-hour urine collection or as estimated by Cockcroft and Gault formula, and NT-proBNP ≤8500 pg/mL. Patients received isatuximab intravenously 20 mg/kg weekly during the first 28 day cycle and every other week during cycles 2 through 24 for a maximum of 24 cycles. The primary objective was hematologic response with secondary objectives of organ response, safety, progression free survival, and overall survival. Results: At data cut-off (July 24, 2020), 43 patients were registered from March 2018 to September 2019 at 14 institutions. Thirty six patients were eligible with 35 patients receiving at least one dose of isatuximab. Of the eligible patients, the median age was 70 (range 40-81). Prior therapies included proteasome inhibitors in 32 patients (89%), high dose therapy followed by autologous stem cell transplant in 17 patients (47%), immunomodulatory therapy in 9 patients (25%), and anti-CD38 monoclonal antibody therapy in 2 patients (6%). Single organ system involvement was seen in 19 patients (53%), ≥ 2 organ systems in 17 patients (47%), 16 patients (44%) had renal involvement, and 24 (67%) had cardiac involvement. For those with cardiac involvement, 7 patients (29%) had cardiac biomarker stage II and 9 patients (38%) had stage III disease using the Revised Mayo Staging (Kumar S et al., J Clin Oncol, 2012). A total of 17 patients remain on therapy. The median duration on treatment for eligible patients is currently 11.8 months (current range, 0.3-22.1). Of the 19 patients who discontinued treatment, the most common reasons included adverse events in 5 patients (26%), disease progression in 4 patients (21%), sub-optimal response in 2 patients (11%), and concerns related to COVID-19 in 2 patients (11%). The current median follow up is 16.3 months. The most common drug-related AEs were infusion related reactions in 18 patients (50%) with the majority (16/18) being grade I or II, anemia in 9 patients (25%) with the majority (8/9) being grade I, and lymphopenia in 8 patients (22%). Patient characteristics and preliminary safety data were previously presented at the International Symposium on Amyloidosis. The overall hematologic response rate was 77%. Hematological complete response (CR) was observed in 1 of 35 evaluable (completing at least 1 dose) patients (3%), very-good-partial response (VGPR) in 19 patients (54%), and partial response (PR) in 7 patients (20%). Conclusions: Isatuximab demonstrates encouraging efficacy in previously treated patients with AL amyloidosis. The administration of isatuximab in these patients is associated with a good safety profile similar to other monoclonal antibodies against CD38. The data will be updated at the meeting.

LBA3 Background: Bortezomib (btz) combined with lenalidomide (len) and dexamethasone (dex) (VRd) is a standard initial therapy for NDMM. Carfilzomib (cfz), a next-generation proteasome inhibitor, in combination with len-dex (KRd) has shown higher efficacy in phase II trials. This randomized phase III trial was designed to examine if KRd improves progression free survival (PFS) compared to VRd in NDMM (current results), and whether indefinite maintenance with len improves OS compared with two-year maintenance (to be analyzed once data matures). Methods: Patients (Pts) with NDMM, were randomized to receive VRd or KRd in a 1:1 fashion for 36 weeks followed by a second randomization (1:1) to indefinite versus two years of len maintenance. Pts without del17p, t (14;16), t(14;20), plasma cell leukemia or high-risk GEP70 profile, were enrolled. VRd arm included btz 1.3 mg/m2 on days(d) 1, 4, 8, and 11 (d 1, 8 for cycles 9-12), len 25 mg d 1-14, and dex 40 mg d 1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 9, 11, 12 of a 3-week (wk) cycle for 12 cycles, while pts in the KRd arm received cfz 36 mg/m2 d 1, 2, 8, 9, 15, 16 with len 25 mg daily on d 1-21 and dex 40 mg wkly, in 4 wk cycles for 9 cycles. Maintenance included len 15mg d 1-21 every 4 wks. The study was designed to detect a hazard ratio (HR)=0.75 with 80% power at 1-sided 2.5% alpha and 399 PFS events (progression or death regardless of intervening therapy). Results: The study accrued 1087 pts (VRd=542, KRd=545). The median age was 65y. Treatment, efficacy, and toxicity data are in the table. At the second of 3 planned interim analyses, with PFS HR=1.04 (95% CI, 0.8 to 1.3, p=0.74), futility was met. Median PFS was VRd=34.4m and KRd=34.6m; no differences were seen based on age (<65 or ≥65), presence or absence of t(4;14) or ISS stage. The three-year OS (95% CI) was similar: VRd 84% (80 to 88) and KRd 86% (82 to 89). Conclusions: In this randomized phase 3 trial, KRd did not improve PFS compared with VRd in NDMM. A significantly higher rate of cardio-pulmonary and renal toxicity was observed with KRd, while neuropathy rates were higher with VRd. VRd remains the standard triplet induction regimen in standard and intermediate risk NDMM, and a suitable backbone for 4 drug combinations. Clinical trial information: NCT01863550 . [Table: see text]

Introduction: Selinexor is a first-in-class Selective Inhibitor of Nuclear Export (SINE) compound that selectively binds and inactivates XPO1, therefore forcing the nuclear retention and re-activation of cell cycle regulators such as p53, FOXO, IkB, and Rb. Selinexor in combination with low dose dexamethasone (Sel-dex) was recently approved based on data from the STORM study, which induced an overall response rate (ORR) of 26.2% in patients with penta-exposed, triple-class refractory multiple myeloma (TCR-MM). Patients with TCR-MM often present with plasmacytomas along with serological markers of MM. Methods: Here we analyzed the effects of Sel-dex in patients from the STORM study who had baseline plasmacytomas. Results: 122 patients were in enrolled in the STORM study including 27 with a baseline plasmacytoma. The majority of plasmacytomas were soft tissue (22 patients) and 5 patients had soft tissue disease extension from a bone (rib (2), iliac (2), sacral vertebral). The median age of patients with plasmacytomas was 64 years, the median prior therapies were 7 (range 4 - 15), and 8/27 patients with a plasmacytoma had high risk cytogenetics. Of the 27 patients, 11 patients did not have a follow up plasmacytoma assessment: 6 were not evaluable for response as they came off therapy due to clinical progression and/or adverse events, 4 had stable disease (SD) with no evidence of plasmacytoma change, and 1 had progressive disease (PD) on serum M-protein with no evidence of plasmacytoma change. Sixteen of the 27 patients did have follow-up plasmacytoma assessments (methods of measurements included PET, CT, MRI or Clinical). The median days from baseline plasmacytoma evaluation to follow up was 41 days (range 22 - 119). Five patients had objective responses, based upon para-protein and plasmacytoma reductions according to IMWG criteria (1 very good partial response [VGPR], 4 partial responses [PR]) for an ORR of 18.5%. In addition, 2 patients had a minimal response (MR), 4 had SD and 5 had objective PD. Among the 5 patients with ≥PR, 3 plasmacytomas completely resolved, 1 showed near complete resolution, and another showed size reduction with no metabolic activity on PET. Of the 2 patients with a MR, 1 plasmacytoma completely resolved and 1 showed reduced PET uptake. Among the 4 patients with SD, 1 plasmacytomas completely resolved, 1 increased in size and 2 had unknown outcomes as they were assessed clinically. Among the 5 patients with PD, 1 plasmacytomas decreased in size, 1 increased in size, and 3 had unknown outcomes as they were assessed clinically. Conclusions: Of the 16 patients with TCR-MM and a follow up plasmacytoma assessment enrolled on STORM, 9/16 of the plasmacytomas either completely resolved or decreased in size and/or metabolic activity. Effects on plasmacytomas occurred in patients with objective responses (≥PR), as well as in patients with MR, SD and PD. These observations support the finding that Sel-dex is active in patients with plasmacytomas and heavily pretreated TCR-MM.
