New drug cocktail aims to boost myeloma treatment before and after transplant

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

Female participants: contraceptive use should be consistent with local regulations regarding the methods of contraception for those participating in clinical studies. A female participant is eligible to participate if she is not pregnant or breastfeeding, and at least one of the following conditions applies: * Is not a woman of childbearing potential (WOCBP) OR * Is a WOCBP and using a contraceptive method that is highly effective (with a failure rate of \<1% per year), preferably with low user dependency, during the intervention period and for at least 4 months after the last dose of study intervention and agrees not to donate eggs (ova, oocytes) for the purpose of reproduction during this period. The investigator should evaluate the effectiveness of the contraceptive method in relationship to the first dose of study intervention. A WOCBP must have a negative highly sensitive serum pregnancy test (as required by local regulations) within 72 hours before the first dose of study intervention and agree to use a highly effective method of contraception during the study and for 4 months after the last dose of belantamab mafodotin. Additional requirements for pregnancy testing during and after study intervention The investigator is responsible for review of medical history, menstrual history, and recent sexual activity to decrease the risk for inclusion of a woman with a nearly undetected pregnancy. Nonchildbearing potential is defined as follows (by other than medical reasons): * ≥45 years of age and has not had menses for \>1 year * Patients who have been amenorrhoeic for \<2 years without history of a hysterectomy and oophorectomy must have a follicle stimulating hormone value in the postmenopausal range upon screening evaluation Post-hysterectomy, post-bilateral oophorectomy, or post-tubal ligation. Documented hysterectomy or oophorectomy must be confirmed with medical records of the actual procedure or confirmed by an ultrasound. Tubal ligation must be confirmed with medical records of the actual procedure. 8. Male participants: contraceptive use should be consistent with local regulations regarding the methods of contraception for those participating in clinical studies. Male participants are eligible to participate if they agree to the following during the intervention period and for at least 6 months: * Refrain from donating sperm PLUS either: * Be abstinent from heterosexual intercourse as their preferred and usual lifestyle (abstinent on a long term and persistent basis) and agree to remain abstinent. OR * Must agree to use contraception/barrier as detailed below: Agree to use a male condom and female partner to use an additional highly effective contraceptive method with a failure rate of \<1% per year as when having sexual intercourse with a woman of childbearing potential (including pregnant females). All prior treatment-related toxicities (defined by National Cancer Institute- Common Toxicity Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI-CTCAE), version 4.0 (must be ≤ Grade 1 at the time of enrolment except for alopecia). 9. Participant must be able to understand the study procedures and agree to participate in the study by providing written informed consent. Exclusion Criteria: Patients that present any of the following exclusion criteria cannot be included in the trial: 1. Participant has a diagnosis of primary amyloidosis, monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (MGUS), smoldering multiple myeloma (SMM), plasma cell leukemia or active POEMS syndrome at the time of screening. 2. Participant has malignancies other than disease under study, except for any other malignancy from which the participant has been disease-free for more than 2 years and, in the opinion of the principal investigators, will not affect the evaluation of the effects of this clinical trial treatment on the currently targeted malignancy. Participants with curatively treated non-melanoma skin cancer may be enrolled. 3. Participant has meningeal involvement of multiple myeloma. 4. Pregnant or breastfeeding females. 5. Participant is simultaneously enrolled in other interventional clinical trial. 6. Participant must has used an investigational drug within 14 days or five half-lives, whichever is shorter, preceding the first dose of study drug. 7. Participant has used of any anti-myeloma drug therapy, except for steroid pulses in case of emergency (40 mg of dexamethasone for 4 days), the administration of bisphosphonates or antialgic radiotherapy or due to the presence of plasmacytomas requiring some emergency. 8. Participant who have received prior treatment with a monoclonal antibody within 30 days of receiving the first dose of study drugs. 9. Participant has a known immediate or delayed hypersensitivity reaction or idiosyncrasy to drugs chemically related to: belantamab mafodotin, lenalidomide, boronic acid (bortezomib), dexamethasone or any of the components of the study treatment. 10. Participant who have had major surgery ≤ 4 weeks prior to initiating protocol therapy. 11. Participant who have current corneal epithelial disease except mild punctate keratopathy 12. Participant has peripheral neuropathy or neuropathic pain grade ≥2, as defined by the National Cancer Institute Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI CTCAE) Version 4.0 (APPENDIX 4). 13.

Note: Stable chronic liver disease (including Gilbert's syndrome or asymptomatic gallstones) or hepatobiliary involvement of malignancy is acceptable if otherwise meets entry criteria 17. Presence of active renal condition (infection, requirement for dialysis or any other condition that could affect patient's safety). Participants with isolated proteinuria resulting from MM are eligible, provided they fulfil inclusion criteria 18. Participant who use contact lenses while participating in this study, except if contact lenses are removed during participation in the study 19.
