Promising combo tackles relapsed myeloma in early trial
NCT ID NCT01615029
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tested a new drug called daratumumab, given together with two standard treatments (lenalidomide and dexamethasone), in 45 people whose multiple myeloma had returned or stopped responding to prior therapy. The main goal was to check safety and see how many patients responded to the combination. The trial was completed and helped determine the best dose for future studies.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- daratumumab (a targeted antibody) combined with lenalidomide and dexamethasone
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this combination could offer a new treatment option for people with multiple myeloma that has returned or stopped responding to prior therapies.
- What could go wrong
- This is an early-phase trial with only 45 participants, so results may not apply to all patients. Side effects from the drug combination could be significant, and the treatment is not a cure.
