A Dietary Study for People With Multiple Myeloma
United States220 participantsStarted 2025-11-04
Plain-language summary
The purpose of the study is to find out whether a dietary intervention can affect treatment response and/or quality of life for people with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma receiving standard induction chemotherapy with daratumumab (or isatuximab), lenalidomide, bortezomib, and dexamethasone (DRVd). The researchers will measure quality of life by having participants complete questionnaires. The study will investigate the effects of diet on quality of life, treatment response, and other disease, microbiome, and immune markers.

AI-rewrites the medical criteria so a patient or caregiver can understand them. Always confirm with the trial site.
Inclusion Criteria:
* Newly diagnosed multiple myeloma
* Patients must have pathologically confirmed multiple myeloma on bone marrow biopsy with cytogenetics via Florescence in Situ Hybridization (FISH) or SNP array or genomic sequencing report and evaluation of blood myeloma markers (quantitative immunoglobulins, free light chains, serum protein electrophoresis and immunofixation).
* Age ≥ 18 years
* Bone marrow involvement
* Planned for four 28-day cycles of daratumumab (or isatuximab), lenalidomide, bortezomib, dexamethasone (or any other steroid) (DRVd) induction chemotherapy (with once weekly bortezomib day 1, 8, 15 and lenalidomide 21/28 days).
* All 4 planned drugs initiated by C2D1.
* Must enroll before C1D21 of induction chemotherapy as study intervention starts at C2D1.
* Treatment at a site where treating oncologist has capability and plan to send for bone marrow MRD negativity by next generation sequencing at end of 4 cycles (EOI). To be confirmed with local oncologist at enrollment.
* Treatment at MSK or at a site that uses EPIC for electronic medical records and willing to share records with MSK through EPIC's Care Everywhere or through MSK's shared care network.
* Enrollment on another trial that allows for 4 cycles of 28-day DRVd is acceptable.
* Prior dexamethasone treatment is eligible.
* Patients who have received up to one cycle of cyclophosphamide and/or bortezomib with dexamethasone for disease control are eligible.
* Able to complete study procedures a…
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?

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?
