NCT ID NCT04094961
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests a combination of three oral drugs—ixazomib, pomalidomide, and dexamethasone—given twice weekly to people whose multiple myeloma has returned or stopped responding to prior treatments. The goal is to find a safe and effective dose that controls the cancer. The trial enrolls 52 participants and is currently active but no longer recruiting.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- Ixazomib (Ninlaro), Pomalidomide (Pomalyst), and Dexamethasone
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could offer a new, more convenient oral combination to control multiple myeloma that has returned or stopped responding to other treatments.
- What could go wrong
- This is an early-phase trial with only 52 participants, so results may not apply to all patients. Side effects from the drug combination could be significant, and the regimen may not prove more effective than existing options.
