New combo aims to mop up hidden cancer cells after myeloma transplant
NCT ID NCT05690984
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jul 17, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This phase 2 trial tests whether a combination of isatuximab, lenalidomide, and dexamethasone can eliminate minimal residual disease (MRD) in multiple myeloma patients who still have detectable cancer cells after a stem cell transplant. About 30 adults will receive the drug combo for up to 12 cycles. The main goal is to see how many become MRD-negative, meaning no cancer cells are found by a sensitive genetic test.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- isatuximab, lenalidomide, and dexamethasone
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this combination could help eliminate remaining cancer cells after transplant, potentially leading to longer remission for multiple myeloma patients.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, early-phase trial with only 30 participants, so results may not apply to all patients. The drugs can cause side effects like infections, fatigue, and blood clots.
