Background
Daratumumab
A human CD38 mAb with broad-spectrum killing activity of CD38-expressing tumor cells
DARA+LEN enhanced killing of MM cells in vitro and is hypothesized to lead to synergistically higher efficacy
in clinical setting.

Results
Demographics and Baseline Characteristics
•Data from 22 patients (16 men, 6 women) are evaluable to date.
•Median age 62 (48-76) years
•Median prior therapies: 2.5 (1-4)
•13 patients had ECOG status 0; 8 patients had ECOG status 1
•3 patients (1 in 4 mg/kg group and 2 in 8 mg/kg group) LEN refractory.
Safety
•AEs (>30% patients): neutropenia, diarrhea
•MTD not reached
•No DLTs reported in any dose cohort
•Infusion reactions (grade 1 and 2) reported in 4 patients
Presented by: Torben Plesner
Efficacy
•All patients followed up for at least 2 weeks
•Marked decrease in M-protein
•PR or better: 15/20 patients
•3 CR, 6 VGPR
•Median time to response-4.3 weeks (2.1-11.3)

Study design
• Phase 1: oral MLN9708 dose-escalation
– Standard 3+3 schema, 33% dose increments, based on cycle 1 DLTs
• Phase 2: oral MLN9708 at the RP2D from phase 1
• Protocol allows for stem cell collection after cycle 4, with ASCT deferred
until after 8 cycles
• MLN9708 maintenance continued at the last tolerated dose until
progression or unacceptable toxicity

Phase 1: DLTs and RP2D
• Two dose levels in this study:
– 7 pts enrolled to MLN9708 3.0 mg
– 7 pts enrolled to MLN9708 3.7 mg
• No AEs met DLT criteria in cycle 1 at either dose of MLN9708
• RP2D was chosen as 3.0 mg
– Determined based on consideration of the balance between overall
tolerability, including rate of rash that was higher than expected with either
single-agent MLN9708 or lenalidomide, and efficacy across multiple cycles
• All 7 pts enrolled to MLN9708 3.7 mg reported rash-related AEs
(including 4 pts with grade 3 AEs)
DLTs, dose-limiting toxicites; RP2D, recommended phase 2 dose
