New hope for Tough-to-Treat multiple myeloma: CM336 enters phase 3 trial
NCT ID NCT07181239
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 26, 2026
Summary
This Phase 3 trial compares a new drug called CM336 against standard treatments for people with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma who have already tried at least two prior therapies. About 280 participants will be randomly assigned to receive either CM336 or a standard-of-care regimen chosen by their doctor. The main goal is to see if CM336 can delay cancer progression better than current options.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- CM336
- What this could lead to
- If successful, CM336 could offer a new treatment option for people with multiple myeloma that has returned or not responded to prior therapies.
- What could go wrong
- This is an early-stage Phase 3 trial, so results are not guaranteed. The drug may not work better than current treatments, and side effects are possible.

Inclusion Criteria: * The subjects voluntarily sign the informed consent form (ICF) and agree to abide by the provisions of this protocol. * Age ≥ 18 years old, gender is not limited. * Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status score (ECOG) 0-2 points. * Patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma who have received at least two lines of anti-myeloma treatment previously, and must include at least one proteasome inhibitor (PI), one immunomodulatory agent (IMiD), and one anti-Cluster of Differentiation 38(CD38) monoclonal antibody. * The subject has evidence of disease progression or has not achieved remission after the last line of treatment, as determined by the investigator based on the International Myeloma Working Group (2016) criteria. * The subject has measurable disease at the screening period, meeting at least one of the following criteria: 1. Serum M protein ≥ 5 g/L; 2. Urinary M protein ≥ 200 mg/24 h; 3. Serum free light chain (sFLC) ≥ 100 mg/L and abnormal κ/ λ ratio. Exclusion Criteria: * Previous receipt of any treatment targeting B-cell maturation antigen (BCMA). * Those who are intolerant to dexamethasone will be excluded. * Within 3 months prior to the first administration, they have received chimeric antigen receptor T cells (CAR-T) /chimeric antigen receptor Nature killer cell (CAR-NK) therapy. * Within 3 months prior to the first administration, they have received autologous stem cell transplantation; within 6 months prior to the first administration, they have received allogeneic stem cell transplantation (for subjects who have received allogeneic transplantation, they must have discontinued all immunosuppressants for ≥ 6 weeks and have no signs of graft-versus-host disease before being eligible for enrollment).
