NCT ID NCT05511428
First seen Jun 27, 2026 ยท Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested whether giving Darzalex Faspro (a drug for multiple myeloma) at home is practical and satisfactory for patients. Twenty adults with multiple myeloma who were already on a monthly daratumumab regimen received their injections at home. The main goal was to measure treatment satisfaction using a questionnaire. The study also tracked how well patients stuck to their home treatment schedule.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only โ not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- Daratumumab and hyaluronidase (Darzalex Faspro)
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could show that giving multiple myeloma treatment at home is safe and satisfactory, reducing the need for frequent hospital visits.
- What could go wrong
- This was a very small study (20 people) with no comparison group, so results may not apply to everyone. It focused on satisfaction, not on whether the drug works better or worse at home.
