Inclusion criteria
. Age ≥18 years.
. Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) Performance Status criteria of 0-2.
. Must have archival bone marrow sample at time of diagnosis that can be used for clonality identification for NGS if not already performed.
. Presence of residual bone marrow minimal residual disease (MRD) positivity by clonoSEQ® next-generation sequencing (NGS) 90-120 days post autologous stem cell transplantation.
. Histologically confirmed diagnosis of symptomatic multiple myeloma (patients with multiple myeloma with secondary amyloidosis are eligible, but no amyloid treatment will be allowed while on study).
. Received autologous stem cell transplant as upfront therapy for myeloma (defined as ASCT within one year of diagnosis of symptomatic MM).
. Adequate organ function as defined below:
. Pregnancy It is not known what effects this treatment has on human pregnancy or development of the embryo or fetus. Therefore, female subjects participating in this study should avoid becoming pregnant, and male subjects should avoid impregnating a female partner. Non-sterilized female subjects of reproductive age and male subjects should use effective methods of contraception through defined periods during and after study treatment as specified below.
Exclusion criteria
Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?
Generated to help you prepare — always confirm anything about your own eligibility and care with the study team and your doctor.
Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.
. Evidence of MM disease progression any time prior to enrollment.
. Administration or planned administration of any other concomitant chemotherapy, immunotherapy, or any ancillary therapy that would be considered a treatment of multiple myeloma from Day +30 post-transplant through discontinuation from study. Local radiation therapy is allowed. Subjects may be on corticosteroids if they are being given for disorders other than multiple myeloma (e.g., adrenal insufficiency, rheumatoid arthritis, etc.)
. Any serious medical or psychiatric illness that could, in the investigator's opinion, potentially interfere with the completion of treatment according to this protocol.
. Prior organ transplant requiring immunosuppressive therapy.
. Known to be human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) positive.
. Known to have hepatitis A, B, or C active infection. If hepatitis positive, patient may still be per the notes below.
. Known allergy to any of the study medications, their analogues, or excipients in the various formulations of any agent.
. Concurrent hematologic or non-hematologic malignancy requiring treatment (other than multiple myeloma and secondary amyloidosis).
