New hope for myeloma patients too old for transplant?
NCT ID NCT05272826
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests a combination of four drugs—iberdomide, bortezomib, dexamethasone, and isatuximab—for people newly diagnosed with multiple myeloma who are not eligible for a stem cell transplant. The goal is to see if this treatment can shrink or eliminate the cancer. About 75 participants aged 65 and older will take part.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- iberdomide, bortezomib, dexamethasone, and isatuximab
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could offer a new, effective treatment option for older adults with multiple myeloma who cannot undergo a stem cell transplant.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, early-phase (Phase 2) trial with only 75 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. The drug combination may cause side effects or not work as hoped.
