Daratumumab Plus VRd in Transplantation-Eligible Patients with Newly Diagnosed Multiple Myeloma

Information

  • Design: Phase 3, randomized, controlled, multi-center
  • Number of patients: 709
  • Patients characteristics: Transplantation-eligible patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma
  • Agent: Subcutaneous daratumumab combined with bortezomib, lenalidomide, and dexamethasone (D-VRd) vs VRd alone
  • Treatment line: First-line therapy
  • Trial Name or NCT Number: PERSEUS (NCT03710603, EudraCT 2018-002992-16)

Other findings

  • Death occurred in 34 patients in the D-VRd group and 44 patients in the VRd group
  • Grade 3 or 4 adverse events occurred in most patients in both groups, with neutropenia and thrombocytopenia being the most common
  • Serious adverse events occurred in 57.0% of patients in the D-VRd group and 49.3% of those in the VRd group

Summary In this phase 3 trial, the addition of subcutaneous daratumumab to VRd induction and consolidation therapy and to lenalidomide maintenance therapy significantly improved progression-free survival among transplantation-eligible patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma. The D-VRd group also had higher rates of complete response or better and MRD-negative status compared to the VRd group.
