| Scientific title | An open label, multicentre, phase I/II dose escalation trial of carfilzomib in combination with doxorubicin and dexamethasone (CAD) therapy in transplant eligible relapsed myeloma patients |
| Study acronym | MUK 02 |
| Study objectives | During the dose finding phase, the primary objective of this trial is to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of carfilzomib in combination with doxorubicin and dexamethasone (CAD). In the dose expansion phase the primary objective will be to estimate the response rate to four cycles of CAD therapy at MTD identified in the dose finding stage in transplant eligible relapsed myeloma patients. Within the extension phase there are also the following secondary objectives: 1. Assess the safety and toxicity of CAD therapy 2. Assess the feasibility to mobilise stem cells following CAD therapy 3. Estimate maximum response to therapy 4. Estimate time to maximum response to therapy 5. Estimate progression free survival following CAD therapy 6. Assess the feasibility of delivering CD maintenance |

| Intervention | Dose escalation: Dose level 1 Carfilzomib 20mg/m2 on days 1 and 2 of cycle 1 only, 27mg/m2 on days 8-9 and 15-16 of cycle 1 and all subsequent doses. Adriamycin® (doxorubicin) 9.0 mg/m2 days 1, 2, 15 and 16. dexamethasone 40mg days 1, 2, 8, 9, 15 and 16 Dose level 2 Carfilzomib 20mg/m2 on days 1 and 2 of cycle 1 only, 36mg/m2 on days 8-9 and 15-16 of cycle and all subsequent doses. Adriamycin® (doxorubicin) 9.0 mg/m2 days 1, 2, 15 and 16. dexamethasone 40mg days 1, 2, 8, 9, 15 and 16 Dose level 3 Carfilzomib 20mg/m2 on days 1 and 2 of cycle 1 only, 45mg/m2 on days 8-9 and 15-16 of cycle 1 and all subsequent doses. Adriamycin® (doxorubicin) 9.0 mg/m2 days 1, 2, 15 and 16. dexamethasone 40mg days 1, 2, 8, 9, 15 and 16 Patients will receive four cycles of CAD and will be given the option of a further four cycles of consolidation therapy. Patients will then receive carfilzomib and dexamethasone maintenance therapy until disease progression and will be followed up every 2 months. 26/11/2012: Please note that this trial was never started. |
| Intervention type | Drug |
| Phase | Phase I/II |
| Drug / device / biological / vaccine name(s) | Carfilzomib, doxorubicin, dexamethasone |
| Primary outcome measure(s) |
The primary endpoints for the dose escalation phase is dose limiting toxicities within the first cycle of treatment (28 days). In the dose expansion phase, the primary endpoint will be the proportion of patients achieving at least a partial response after four cycles of CAD. |
| Key secondary outcome measure(s) |
1. The proportion of patients for whom stem cell cell mobilisation is possible following CAD therapy |
