This study tested elranatamab, a bispecific antibody that helps the immune system attack cancer cells, in combination with other drugs for people with multiple myeloma that had stopped responding to at least three prior treatments. The trial aimed to find the safest dose and see …

This very early study tested two drugs, alnuctamab and mezigdomide, together in people with multiple myeloma that had come back or stopped responding to treatment. The goal was to find a safe dose and see if the combination could shrink tumors. However, the trial was stopped earl…

This study tested whether giving two immunotherapy drugs (nivolumab and ipilimumab) after a stem cell transplant could safely help control high-risk multiple myeloma and lymphoma. It involved 46 adults aged 18-80 whose cancer was at high risk of coming back. The main goal was to …

This early-stage study tested a new type of immunotherapy called CAR-T cells that target a protein called BCMA on multiple myeloma cells. The treatment involved taking a patient's own immune cells, engineering them to attack the cancer, and infusing them back. The study included …

This study looked at two different high-dose chemotherapy treatments for people aged 65 and older with multiple myeloma, a type of blood cancer. Participants received either the standard chemotherapy (melphalan) or a combination of melphalan and another drug (bortezomib) before a…

This study tested a new drug called CC-92480, alone or with dexamethasone, in 200 people with multiple myeloma that had returned or stopped responding to at least three prior treatments. The goal was to check safety, find the best dose, and see if the drug could shrink tumors. Th…

This early-phase study tested a new drug called modakafusp alfa combined with daratumumab in 15 people with multiple myeloma that had returned or not responded to prior treatments. The main goals were to check safety and find the best dose. The trial was terminated early, so full…

This study tested a new drug called modakafusp alfa in 272 people with multiple myeloma that had returned or stopped responding to other treatments. The goal was to check safety and see if the drug could shrink tumors. The trial was terminated early, but researchers collected dat…

This early-stage trial tested a new drug called modakafusp alfa (TAK-573) combined with standard myeloma treatments in 15 adults with multiple myeloma. The main goal was to check safety and find the best dose. The study was terminated early, so we have limited information on how …

This phase 2 study tested a new CAR-T cell therapy called PHE885 in adults with relapsed and refractory multiple myeloma. The therapy targets a protein called BCMA on myeloma cells. The trial aimed to see how many patients responded, but it was terminated early. Results may still…

This study looked at whether a donor stem cell transplant (allogeneic) works better than standard drug therapy for people with multiple myeloma that came back after initial treatment. It included adults aged 18-70 with a compatible donor. The trial was stopped early, so results a…

This study tested a new treatment called LCAR-B38M CAR-T cells in 123 Chinese adults with multiple myeloma that had returned or not responded to at least three prior therapies. The treatment uses a patient's own immune cells, modified in a lab to recognize and attack cancer cells…

This early-stage study tested the drug belantamab mafodotin (Blenrep) as a maintenance therapy to prevent multiple myeloma from returning after a stem cell transplant. Only 6 people took part before the study was stopped early. The main goals were to check safety and pain levels,…

This study tested a daily pill called INCB000928 for people with anemia caused by myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) or multiple myeloma. The goal was to see if it was safe and could raise red blood cell levels, reducing the need for transfusions. The trial was terminated early afte…

This early-phase study tested a new drug called tasquinimod, alone or with standard chemotherapy, in 30 adults with multiple myeloma that had relapsed or become resistant. The main goal was to find a safe dose and check for side effects. The trial was terminated early, so results…

This early-phase trial tested a CAR T cell therapy called bb2121 (ide-cel) combined with other drugs in 21 adults with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma. The goal was to find a safe dose and see if the combinations could shrink tumors. The study was terminated early, so res…

This pilot study tested the blood pressure drug telmisartan (Micardis) to prevent acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) in people receiving a stem cell transplant for blood cancers. The trial aimed to enroll 60 participants but was terminated early with 32. Researchers tracked s…

This study looked at whether a supervised exercise program could help improve quality of life and reduce fatigue in people under 65 with multiple myeloma who had a stem cell transplant. Participants were randomly assigned to either an exercise group or a control group. The study …

This study tested a sensory rehabilitation program for people who lost their sense of smell or taste after chemotherapy for blood cancers like multiple myeloma or lymphoma. The program involved exercises to retrain the nose and tongue. Only 5 people enrolled before the study ende…

This study aimed to find out how common antibiotic resistance is in multiple myeloma patients receiving a stem cell transplant. Researchers planned to collect data from 124 adults to help design future studies on preventing infections. The study was stopped early, so results are …

This study was a large registry that followed over 3,000 people newly diagnosed with multiple myeloma to understand how the disease is managed in everyday practice. Participants received standard treatments prescribed by their own doctors, and researchers collected information on…

This study aimed to find out why some multiple myeloma patients develop shortness of breath when taking the drug carfilzomib. Researchers used an FDA-approved finger device called EndoPAT to check blood vessel health and tracked symptoms through surveys. The study enrolled 50 adu…

This study aimed to track four bone-related markers in the blood and urine of multiple myeloma patients receiving standard bisphosphonate therapy. Only 3 people enrolled before the study was terminated. It was designed to observe changes over 12 months, not to test a new treatmen…
