NCT ID NCT05199311

First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study tests a combination of three drugs—carfilzomib, iberdomide, and dexamethasone—in people newly diagnosed with multiple myeloma who are eligible for a stem cell transplant. The goal is to see if this mix is safe and effective at shrinking the cancer before transplant. About 66 participants will receive the drugs in cycles, and researchers will track side effects and remission rates.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance

carfilzomib, iberdomide, and dexamethasone

What this could lead to

If successful, this combination could become a new initial treatment option for multiple myeloma patients before a stem cell transplant, potentially improving remission rates.

What could go wrong

This is an early-phase trial with only 66 participants, so results may not apply broadly. The drugs can cause serious side effects like heart or lung problems, and the combination may not prove more effective than existing therapies.
