Introduction

Introduction:Daratumumab is a human IgGκ monoclonal antibody that targets CD38 with a direct on-tumor and immunomodulatory mechanism of action. In the primary analysis (median follow-up, 16.5 months) of the global phase 3 ALCYONE trial, daratumumab in combination with bortezomib, melphalan, and prednisone (D-VMP) significantly improved progression-free survival (PFS) versus VMP alone in patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma (NDMM) who were ineligible for transplant (median PFS, not reached vs 18.1 months; hazard ratio [HR], 0.50; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.38-0.65; P<0.001). In the primary analysis (median follow-up, 12.3 months) of the phase 3 OCTANS trial, D-VMP significantly prolonged PFS versus VMP in transplant-ineligible Asian patients with NDMM (median PFS, not reached vs 18.2 months; HR, 0.43; 95% CI, 0.24-0.77; P=0.0033). Here, we present a pooled subgroup analysis of PFS stratified by best response in Asian and global patients from the OCTANS and ALCYONE studies, respectively.

Introduction:Daratumumab is a human IgGκ monoclonal antibody targeting CD38 with a direct on-tumor and immunomodulatory mechanism of action. In the global phase 3 ALCYONE trial, the addition of daratumumab to bortezomib, melphalan, and prednisone (D-VMP) resulted in improved outcomes over bortezomib, melphalan, and prednisone (VMP) alone in transplant-ineligible patients (pts) with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma (NDMM). At a median follow-up of 16.5 months, the median progression-free survival (PFS) was not reached (NR) for the D-VMP group versus 18.1 months for the VMP group (hazard ratio [HR], 0.50; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.38-0.65; P<0.001). With extended follow-up (median follow-up, 40.1 months), D-VMP demonstrated a significant overall survival benefit (HR, 0.60; 95% CI, 0.46-0.80; P=0.0003) and continued to demonstrate significant improvement in PFS versus VMP with no new safety concerns. In the phase 3 OCTANS trial, at a median follow-up of 12.3 months, D-VMP significantly prolonged PFS versus VMP in transplant-ineligible Asian pts with NDMM (median PFS, NR vs 18.2 months; HR, 0.43; 95% CI, 0.24-0.77; P=0.0033). Here, we present a pooled analysis of transplant-ineligible NDMM pts from OCTANS and ALYCONE.
