Immuno-PRISM (PRecision Intervention Smoldering Myeloma)

          The purpose of this study is to test the anti-cancer activity of Teclistamab and to compare it with Lenalidomide + Dexamethasone combination in people with high risk smoldering multiple myeloma.

People with smoldering multiple myeloma (SMM) usually do not have symptoms but are at risk for progressing to active multiple myeloma (MM). Multiple Myeloma is a cancer of the plasma cells, which are an important part of the immune system. Patients with active multiple myeloma generally require treatment but there are currently no approved therapies for smoldering multiple myeloma.

The names of the study drugs involved in this study are:

Teclistamab
Lenalidomide (also called Revlimid)
Dexamethasone (also called Decadron)

Est. Enrollment: 51 participants

Study Start Date: Aug 10, 2022

Study Completion Date: Jul 31, 2030

Age: 18+ years

Gender: All

Females of child-bearing potential* randomized to Lenalidomide must have a negative serum or urine pregnancy test with a sensitivity of at least 50 mIU/mL within 10 - 14 days and again within 24 hours prior to prescribing lenalidomide for Cycle 1 (prescriptions must be filled within 7 days as required by Revlimid Risk Evaluation and Mitigation Strategies (REMS®) and must either commit to continued abstinence from heterosexual intercourse or begin TWO acceptable methods of birth control, one highly effective method and one additional effective method AT THE SAME TIME, at least 28 days before she starts taking lenalidomide.
A female of child-bearing potential is a sexually mature female who: has not undergone a hysterectomy (the surgical removal of the uterus) or bilateral oophorectomy (the surgical removal of both ovaries), or has not been naturally postmenopausal (amenorrhea following cancer therapy does not rule out childbearing potential) for at least 24 consecutive months (i.e., has had menses at any time during the preceding 24 consecutive months)

Of childbearing potential and Practicing true abstinence; or Have a sole partner who is vasectomized; or Practicing ≥1 highly-effective, user-independent method of contraception NOTE: Participant must agree to continue the above throughout the study and for 90 days after the last dose of study treatment.
NOTE: If a woman becomes of childbearing potential after start of the study the woman must comply with point (b) as described above.
NOTE: An interaction between hormonal contraception and teclistamab has not been formally studied. Therefore, it is unknown whether teclistamab may reduce the efficacy of the contraception method.
A woman must agree not to donate eggs (ova, oocytes) or freeze for future use, for the purposes of assisted reproduction during the study and for 90 days after receiving the last dose of study treatment

If a female partner is of childbearing potential, she must also be practicing a highly effective method of contraception
If the male participant is vasectomized, he still must wear a condom (with spermicidal foam/gel/film/cream/suppository), but his female partner is not required to use contraception.
A male participant must agree not to donate sperm for the purpose of reproduction during the study and for a minimum of 90 days after receiving the last dose of study treatment.
