Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
IFM 2012-03 protocol is a Phase 2 multicenter nonrandomized open in elderly patients with multiple myeloma at diagnosis. Study primary objectives are in the first step to determine Maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of Carfilzomib Weekly based on definition of Dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) and in the second step to expanded cohort, to determine the VGPR (Very Good Partial Response) + CR (Complete Response) rate of Carfilzomib Weekly at the MTD in combination with Melphalan Prednisone at the end of the 9 induction cycles.

- description
- one arm, two steps and two parts.In the first step of the study: 5 cohorts of 6 patients with Carfilzomib weekly administrated at different dose regimen will be opened one after the other to determine Maximum tolerated dose of Carfilzomib based on definition of Dose-limiting toxicities.In the second step of the study:expanded Cohort, 50 patients received Carfilzomib at the MTD. In Part 1. Induction.Nine 5 weeks cycles of weekly CMP are plannedCarfilzomib. 36, 45, 56 or 70 mg/m² on days 1, 8, 15, 22 IV route . Patients will start the first cycle day 1 with 20mg/m². In combination with oral Melphalan 0.25mg/kg/j and oral prednisone 60mg/m², both on days 1 to 4.Part 2. Maintenance.Carfilzomib. 36 mg/m² weekly, every two weeks IV route for 1 year.

Primary outcomes (1)
- measure
- Dose Maximum Tolerate of Carfilzomib Weekly
- timeFrame
- 35 days
- description
- If dose-limiting toxicities occur in fewer than 3 of these patients per cohort, the next cohort of 6 patients (cohort 2,3 and 4) will be open. If at any time during cycle 1 of a dose cohort, \> 2 subjects experience a drug-related dose-limiting toxicities, the Maximum Tolerate Dosing will have been exceeded, additional enrolment within the cohort will cease, and dose escalation will stop. The Maximum Tolerate Dosing will be defined as the dose level below which dose-limiting toxicities is observed in \>33% subjects in a cohort.
