New pill may help myeloma patients stay in remission longer after transplant
NCT ID NCT05177536
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests a drug called iberdomide as maintenance therapy for people with multiple myeloma who have had a stem cell transplant. The goal is to see if more patients can stay on treatment for at least a year without the disease getting worse. About 40 adults will take iberdomide pills for 21 days each month, and researchers will monitor how well they tolerate it and how long they remain cancer-free.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- iberdomide (a pill that helps the immune system attack cancer cells)
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could offer a better-tolerated maintenance option for multiple myeloma patients after stem cell transplant, potentially reducing relapse.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, early-phase study with only 40 participants. It may not show clear benefit, and iberdomide could still cause side effects or fail to prevent relapse.
