ADVANCE

A Study of Daratumumab, Carfilzomib, Lenalidomide, and Dexamethasone in Patients With Newly-Diagnosed Multiple Myeloma (ADVANCE)

What's the purpose of the trial?

This study is being done to find out whether carfilzomib, lenalidomide, and dexamethasone (KRD) or KRD and Daratumumab (KRD+DARA) might be safer and more effective ways of controlling multiple myeloma than the standard care treatment, which is lenalidomide, bortezomib, and dexamethasone (VRD).

Experimental Treatments

Learn more about the experimental treatments being evaluated in this clinical trial.

  • Carfilzomib Carfilzomib is a kind of medication called a proteasome inhibitor that interferes with the growth and spread of cancer cells in the body. Carfilzomib is used in the treatment of multiple myeloma. 
  • Daratumumab is a type of cancer drug called a monoclonal antibody. Daratumumab attaches to a protein called CD38, which is present in high numbers on the surface of multiple myeloma cells, as well as on certain other types of cells, such as red blood cells.
  • Dexamethasone is a corticosteroid that prevents the release of substances in the body that cause inflammation, and is given in conjunction with some cancer treatments.
  • Lenalidomide is an oral immunomodulatory drug that may help the immune system kill cancer cells. It may also prevent the growth of new blood vessels that tumors need to grow.
