Study on Effective and Cost-Conscious Maintenance Dosing of Daratumumab for Multiple Myeloma
Sponsor: Eden Biltibo
ClinicalTrials ID:NCT07485647
This phase II clinical trial is exploring a new schedule for giving the drug Daratumumab, combined with Lenalidomide, to patients with multiple myeloma after a stem cell transplant. The goal is to see if giving Daratumumab less frequently can be just as effective, while reducing costs and the number of treatment visits.

Program Overview
This study is testing a new way to give Daratumumab, a drug used to treat multiple myeloma, in combination with Lenalidomide. Daratumumab works by targeting a protein on cancer cells, helping the immune system to destroy them. It is usually given every 4 weeks, but this study is testing if giving it every 8 weeks for the first year, and then every 16 weeks for the next three years, can be just as effective. This new schedule could lower costs and reduce the number of visits for patients who have had a stem cell transplant.
