Four-Drug combo aims to push High-Risk myeloma into deep remission

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

and male patients must use an effective barrier method of contraception throughout the study and for 3 months following the last dose of study drug if sexually active * Ability to complete questionnaire(s) by themselves or with assistance * Provide informed written consent =\< 28 days prior to registration * Willing to return to enrolling institution for follow-up (during the active monitoring phase of the study) Exclusion Criteria: * Prior treatment with daratumumab within 6 months from cycle 1 day1 * Patient with carfilzomib-refractory disease defined as disease progression on or within 60 days of last carfilzomib dose * Any of the following because this study involves an agent that has known genotoxic, mutagenic and teratogenic effects: * Pregnant women * Nursing women * Men or women of childbearing potential who are unwilling to employ adequate contraception * Co-morbid systemic illnesses or other severe concurrent disease which, in the judgment of the investigator, would make the patient inappropriate for entry into this study or interfere significantly with the proper assessment of safety and toxicity of the prescribed regimens * Uncontrolled hypertension, defined as a systolic blood pressure of \>= 160 mmHg or a diastolic blood pressure of \>= 90 mmHg * Significant cardiac disease, including any of the following: * \>= class 3 New York Heart Association (NYHA) congestive heart failure * Electrocardiogram (EKG) evidence of acute ischemia * Unstable angina * Myocardial infarction within 6 months prior to day 1 of treatment * Clinically significant arrhythmias or conduction block (premature atrial contractions \[PACs\], premature ventricular contractions \[PVCs\], rate controlled atrial fibrillation, sinus arrhythmia, asymptomatic sinus bradycardia or sinus tachycardia and 1st degree heart block are not considered clinically significant) * \>= grade 2 QT interval by Fridericia (QTcF) prolongation (i.e. \> 480 ms) * Note: Prior to study entry, any EKG abnormality at screening not felt to put the patient at risk must be documented by the investigator as not medically significant * A diagnosis of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) does not exclude the patient from participation. However, the viral load must be \< 50 copies/mm\^3 and CD4 count \>= 200 on anti-HIV therapy within 28 days prior to cycle 1, day 1 of treatment * Positive hepatitis C antibody test result or positive hepatitis C ribonucleic acid (RNA) test result at screening * NOTE: Subjects with positive hepatitis C antibody due to prior eradicated disease can be enrolled if a confirmatory negative hepatitis C RNA test is obtained * Is seropositive for hepatitis B (defined by a positive test for hepatitis B surface antigen \[HBsAg\]). Subjects with resolved infection (i.e. subjects who are HBsAg negative but positive for antibodies to hepatitis B core antigen \[anti-HBc\] and/or antibodies to hepatitis B surface antigen \[anti-HBs\]) must be screened using real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) measurement of hepatitis B virus (HBV) deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) levels. Subjects who are PCR positive will be excluded. Exception: patients with serologic findings suggestive of HBV vaccination * Uncontrolled intercurrent illness including, but not limited to, ongoing or active infection, or psychiatric illness/social situations that would limit compliance with study requirements * Discontinuation of prior carfilzomib or daratumumab due to treatment toxicity * Radiation within 14 days prior to day 1 of treatment. Note: palliative radiation therapy (XRT) to \< 5% of the total marrow volume as assessed by the treating investigator is allowed within 14 days * Major surgery within 4 weeks prior to day 1 of treatment * Any multiple myeloma therapy within 14 days prior to cycle 1, day 1 * Receiving any other investigational agent which would be considered as a treatment for the primary neoplasm * Active central nervous system (CNS) involvement * Concomitant amyloid light-chain (AL) amyloidosis or polyneuropathy, organomegaly, endocrinopathy, monoclonal gammopathy, and skin changes (POEMS) syndrome * Patients cannot have other prior or concomitant malignancies except for: * Non-melanoma skin cancer * In situ malignancy * Low-risk prostate cancer after curative therapy * Prostate cancer Gleason grade 6 AND with stable prostate specific antigen (PSA) levels off treatment * Other cancer for which the patient has been treated with curative intent or disease free for \>= 3 years * Prior exposure to daratumumab within 24 weeks from cycle 1, day 1
