Abstract: Background: Once multiple myeloma (MM) becomes refractory to αCD38 mAb, pts have limited effective treatment options and poor prognoses. With standard therapies, overall response rate (ORR) to the first regimen after refractoriness to an αCD38 mAb is 31%, median progression-free survival (PFS) - 3.4 months and median overall survival (OS) - 9.3 months (Gandhi et al, Leukemia, 2019). Exportin 1 (XPO1) mediates the nuclear export and functional inactivation of tumor suppressor proteins. XPO1 is required for MM cell growth, is associated with poor prognosis and mediates resistance to standard MM and other anticancer therapies. Selinexor (SEL) is a first-in-class, oral selective inhibitor of nuclear export (SINE) compound approved for patients (pts) with previously treated MM as well as DLBCL. The doublet SEL-dexamethasone (Xd) achieved ORR ~26% in triple-class (Immunomodulatory drug [IMiD] , proteosome inhibitor [PI], αCD38 mAb) refractory MM and improved OS over matched cohorts in community (Richardson et al, eJHaem, 2021) and academic (Cornell et al, AJH, 2020) settings. Hence, SEL-based triplets could be more effective in this triple class-treated population. We analyzed the efficacy and safety of SEL-containing triplets in pts in the STOMP study who were previously treated with regimens containing αCD38 mAb. Methods: STOMP is a multi-arm, open-label, Phase 1b/2 study evaluating SEL in various combinations (NCT02343042). Here, we analyzed ORR, clinical benefit rate (CBR), duration of response (DOR), PFS, OS, and treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) of pts who received Xd plus pomalidomide (XPd, n=23) or carfilzomib (XKd, n=23) after prior therapy with αCD38 mAb. Results: Among 46 pts treated, median age was 64 yrs (XPd), 70 yrs (XKd), females 57% (XPd) and 39% (XKd), median time from diagnosis was 5 yrs, and median number of prior regimens 4 (range, 2-10). All pts were previously treated with a PI and IMiD and αCD38 mAb; 78% (XPd) and 52% (XKd) had triple refractory MM. Prior treatment with αCD38 mAb included daratumumab (XPd: 91%, XKd: 100%) and isatuximab (XPd: 9%); 52% (XPd) and 74% (XKd) had αCD38 mAb in their most recent prior regimen. Refractoriness to daratumumab was documented in 87% (XPd) and 96% (XKd); isatuximab in 9% (XPd). Median durations from end of most recent αCD38 mAb therapy to first dose of study treatment were 8 weeks (XPd), 4 weeks (XKd). Among evaluable pts, ORR and CBR were 52% and 76%, respectively in the XPd arm (n=21; 2 pts were not efficacy evaluable) and 65% and 74%, respectively in the XKd arm. In the XPd arm median PFS was 8.7 months (95% CI: 7.6, NE), median DOR was 7.9 months (95% CI: 3.9, NE), and median OS was 21.8 months (95% CI: 8, NE). In the XKd arm median PFS was 15 months (95% CI: 12.0, NE), median DOR was 13.1 months (95% CI: 10.2, NE), and median OS was 33.0 months (95% CI: 20.4, NE). Among the evaluable pts, response to SEL-containing triplets compared favorably to the prior αCD38 mAb-containing regimen used at least 1 line earlier: XPd arm (n=21), ORR 52% vs 58% for prior regimen, CBR 76% vs 58%, median PFS 8.7 months (95% CI: 7.6, NE) vs 10.2 months (95% CI: 5.2, 20.5); XKd arm (n=23), ORR 65% vs 52%, CBR 74% vs 57%, median PFS 15.0 months (95% CI: 12.0, NE) vs 8.5 months (95% CI: 5.9, 17.3). The most common hematological TEAEs (total; grade≥3) were thrombocytopenia (XPd: 35%; 30%; XKd: 78%; 39%), anemia (XPd: 57%; 39%; XKd: 57%; 22%), and neutropenia (XPd: 57%; 48%; XKd: 35%; 4%). Other common TEAEs (total; grade≥3) were nausea (XPd: 74%; 0; XKd: 74%; 4%), fatigue (XPd: 61%; 4%; XKd: 52%; 4%) and decreased appetite (XPd: 48%; 4%; XKd: 48%; 4%). No cases of severe bleeding with thrombocytopenia occurred. Three pts (13%, all XPd) had febrile neutropenia (the outcome of which was fatal in 1 pt, deemed related to SEL and pomalidomide). TEAEs were managed with standard supportive care and dose modifications. Summary/Conclusion: XPd and XKd administered to pts with heavily pretreated MM, including prior αCD38 mAb therapy, exhibit tolerability and comparable effectiveness to that of the prior αCD38 mAb-containing regimen. These results suggest that the use of SEL-containing triplets, implementing the novel XPO1 inhibition mechanism, can provide prolonged disease control with good tolerability rather than recycling previously utilized drugs/mechanisms. The all oral XPd regimen will be evaluated in Study EMN29 against elotuzumab-Pd in patients who have received lenalidomide, a PI and an αCD38 mAb.

Abstract: Background: Overexpression of the nuclear export protein exportin 1 (XPO1) mediates the functional inactivation of tumor suppressor proteins (TSPs), facilitates the export of oncogene mRNA thus facilitating oncoprotein expression, is associated with poor prognosis in multiple myeloma (MM), and contributes to immunomodulatory drug (IMiD) resistance. Selinexor is an oral, first-in-class, selective inhibitor of nuclear export (SINE) compound that by blocking XPO1 forces the nuclear retention and activation of TSPs and nuclear retention and inactivation of oncoproteins. 1 Selinexor is approved with low-dose dexamethasone ± bortezomib for patients with previously treated MM. Pomalidomide plus dexamethasone (Pd) has an overall response rate (ORR) of ~30% and median PFS (mPFS) of ~4 months in patients with MM refractory to bortezomib and lenalidomide. We hypothesized that selinexor could be safely combined with Pd (XPd) and would improve the combination's efficacy. Methods: In the XPd arm of the multi-arm Phase 1b/2 STOMP study, selinexor was evaluated at 60, 80, or 100 mg in combination with Pd. Study objectives were to determine the maximum tolerated dose and recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) and to assess the safety and activity of the XPd regimen. The dose of selinexor 60 mg once weekly (QW), pomalidomide 4 mg once daily (days 1-21), dexamethasone 40 mg QW (XPd-60) was the lowest evaluated dose of selinexor in combination with the approved dose of Pd, and in light of the marked efficacy of that dose (ORR 65%), Phase 2 cohorts at a lower (40 mg weekly) dose of selinexor (XPd-40), were evaluated. Of the 19 patients enrolled at XPd-40 and evaluable for efficacy, 12 patients were enrolled into STOMP and 7 patients were enrolled at the same dose level and similar inclusion criteria into a parallel study XPORT-MM-028. Results: As of 14 July 2021, 39 patients were enrolled into the 60 (N=20) and 40 (N=19) mg selinexor dose levels in combination with Pd: 19 males, median age 66.0 years (range 37-85 years), median number of prior lines of therapy 2 (range 1-9). 85% of patients had MM refractory to a proteasome inhibitor (PI; bortezomib or carfilzomib or ixazomib), 79% to an IMiD (thalidomide or lenalidomide or pomalidomide), 33% to an anti-CD38 mAb (daratumumab or isatuximab); 26% had triple class refractory disease. Common hematologic, treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) consisted of (all grades, grade ≥3) neutropenia (72%, 59%; and two cases of grade 3 [G3] febrile neutropenia one in each of the dose levels), and anemia (51%, 15% all G3). Non-hematologic TEAEs were reversible and included fatigue (56%, 10% all G3) and nausea (49%, 0%). On XPd-60, the RP2D (N=20), ORR was 65% (1 stringent complete response [sCR] , 5 very good partial responses [VGPR], 7 PR); mPFS was 8.9 months (95% CI, 7.6 - NE, median follow-up 8.3 months). In patients treated at XPd-40 (N=19), ORR was 42% (3 VGPR, 5 PR); mPFS was not reached (95% CI, 5.7 - NE, median follow-up 2.8 months). Among patients who had received anti-CD38 mAb, the ORR was 64% overall and 100% at the RP2D (1 sCR, 2 VGPR, 3 PR). All patients who had MM refractory to pomalidomide (N=3; all at the 60 mg dose level) responded with 1 VGPR and 2 PR. For the 21 responders across both dose levels, median time to response was 1.0 months (95% CI 1.0 - 2.0) and median duration of response was not reached (95% CI: 8.0, NE). Conclusions: Selinexor, once weekly, can be safely combined with Pd in patients with relapsed MM. The all-oral combination of XPd is highly active with an ORR of 65% at XPd-60, the RP2D, and an ORR of 42% at XPd-40 dose level (compared to expected ORR ~30% for Pd). The high ORR that was achieved at the RP2D, including in patients previously treated with anti-CD38 mAb, supports XPd-60 as a promising therapy with no significant cross-resistance to anti-CD38, PIs or lenalidomide. No new safety signals were identified. The most common TEAE, neutropenia, is a common AE of Pd and was managed effectively with standard G-CSF. The regimen leverages the concept of mechanism switching from an anti-CD38 mAb-based regimen to a selinexor-based regimen. These data support the new Phase 3 study (XPORT-MM-031) with an all-oral combination of XPd vs elotuzumab-Pd in patients who have been previously treated with lenalidomide, a PI, and an anti-CD38 mAb.

Abstract: Background : Selinexor (SEL) is a novel, first-in-class oral selective inhibitor of nuclear export (SINE) which blocks XPO1, forcing the nuclear retention and activation of tumor suppressor proteins, ultimately causing cell death in cancer cells. SEL 80 mg and dexamethasone (dex) 20 mg, both twice weekly (BIW), received accelerated approval from the FDA for patients (pts) with relapsed refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM). SEL continues to be evaluated in earlier lines of therapy with once weekly administration and in combination regimens. The SVd regimen with once weekly (QW) oral SEL (100 mg), dexamethasone (dex) and QW bortezomib (BOR) had significantly increased progression free survival (PFS) and overall response rate (ORR) with significantly reduced peripheral neuropathy as compared to standard BIW BOR/dex (Vd) in the phase III BOSTON study. The combination of lenalidomide (LEN) and dex (Rd) is an approved regimen in RRMM and newly diagnosed MM (NDMM) with an ORR of 70-76% in RRMM but a low complete response rate. SEL showed synergistic antitumor activity with LEN in a MM xenograft model. Therefore, we hypothesized that the all oral combination of weekly SEL with standard Rd (i.e., SRd) could improve the efficacy compared with Rd in pts with RRMM and NDMM with acceptable toxicity profile. Methods: STOMP is a phase 1b/2 multicenter, open-label, clinical trial with the goals of determining the maximum tolerated dose, the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D), efficacy and safety of SRd in pts with RRMM or NDMM. For RRMM, SEL was dose escalated in two regimens QW (starting at SEL 80 mg) or BIW (starting at 60 mg), LEN 25 mg PO daily and DEX 20 mg BIW or 40 mg QW. Results: As of June 1, 2020, 24 pts (13 male, 11 female) with RRMM were enrolled. The median age was 67 years (range, 49-84) and the median number of prior lines of therapy was 1.5 (range, 1 - 8). In the 60 mg BIW dosing, 4 pts experienced dose limiting toxicities (DLTs) out of 5 pts dosed (2 thrombocytopenia, 1 anorexia, 1 & gt;25% missed dose due to unrelated QT interval prolongation). In the 80 mg QW dosing, 2 pts experienced DLTs out of 6 pts (both grade 4 thrombocytopenia). In the 60 mg QW dosing, no DLTs were observed. Based on these data, the RP2D of SRd was determined to be: SEL 60 mg QW, LEN 25 mg QD and DEX 40 mg QW. Common treatment related adverse events (TRAEs) (All Grades, ≥3) were thrombocytopenia (71%, 63%), neutropenia (63%, 63%), nausea (58%, 4%), fatigue (54%, 17%), decreased appetite (50%, 8%), and weight loss (42%, 8%). Amongst the 20 pts with RRMM where efficacy was evaluable, previously treated/documented refractory rates were: bortezomib (100%, 45%), LEN (40%, 25%), daratumumab (20%, 20%), and pomalidomide (20%, 20%). Amongst the LEN naïve pts (n=12), the ORR was 92% including 1 stringent complete response [sCR], 4 very good partial responses [VGPR] and 6 partial responses [PR, 2 unconfirmed]). PFS in LEN naïve pts has not been reached with a median follow-up period of 7.8 months. In the pts with prior LEN treatment (n=8), the ORR was 13%. Based on the high levels of activity of SRd in LEN naïve pts, 8 pts (4 males and 4 females) with NDMM were enrolled at the RP2D. The median age was 74 (range: 51-86) years. No DLTs were observed in 5 DLT evaluable pts. Common TRAEs (All Grades, ≥3) were thrombocytopenia (63%, 38%), neutropenia (75%, 75%), fatigue (63%, 50%), nausea (50%, 0%), weight loss (63%, 0%), and decreased appetite (13%, 13%). All 7 efficacy evaluable pts achieved a response, an ORR of 100%, including 1 CR, 4 VGPR, and 2 PR. With a median follow-up of 10.2 months, median PFS has not been reached. Out of these 7 pts, three pts withdrew consent to transit to successful autologous stem cell collection and transplantation. Conclusions: The all oral combination of SRd with once weekly SEL 60 mg, LEN 25 mg QD and DEX 40 mg QW was established as the RP2D for pts with RRMM or NDMM. The safety profile was similar in both settings. All TRAEs were manageable with adequate supportive care and/or dose modification. The all oral combination of SRd has demonstrated ORR of 92% in pts with LEN naïve RRMM and ORR of 100% in pts with NDMM, warranting further investigation of SRd with or without additional anti-MM agents for the treatment of pts with NDMM.

Abstract: There is a lack of consensus on therapy sequencing in previously treated multiple myeloma, particularly after anti‐B‐cell maturation antigen (BCMA) therapy. Earlier reports on selinexor (X) regimens demonstrated considerable efficacy in early treatment, and after anti‐BCMA‐targeted chimeric antigen receptor‐T cell therapy. Here, we present data from 11 heavily pretreated patients who predominantly received BCMA‐antibody‐drug conjugate therapy. We observe that X‐containing regimens are potent and achieve durable responses with numerically higher overall response and clinical benefit rates, as well as median progression free survival compared to patients’ prior anti‐BCMA therapies, despite being used later in the treatment course. In an area of evolving unmet need, these data reaffirm the efficacy of X‐based regimens following broader anti‐BCMA therapy.

Abstract: Background Multiple myeloma (MM) is considered an incurable hematologic malignancy despite a plethora of standard and novel agents. There is no consensus on the optimal sequencing of available therapies in relapsed/refractory MM (RRMM), even in the second line setting. Novel agents such as selinexor (XPOVIO [X]), an oral, first-in-class selective inhibitor of nuclear export (SINE) compound that blocks XPO1, or those that target B-cell maturation antigen (BCMA), have shown significant activity in RRMM. X is approved with bortezomib (V) and dexamethasone (XVd) in patients (pts) with at least 1 prior therapy and is not associated with known long-term clinically significant toxicities such as visual loss, cardiac dysfunction, renal failure, neuropathy, irreversible bone marrow suppression, second malignancies, venous thromboembolism, or rash. Currently, BCMA-targeting agents include 1 form each of chimeric antigen receptor T cell (CAR-T cell) and antibody drug conjugate (ADC) therapy approved in RRMM: idecabtagene vicleucel and belantamab mafodotin, respectively. BCMA-refractory MM represents an area of unmet need in MM without known standards for best treatment. Various novel combinations with X have demonstrated strong benefit in RRMM after 1 or more lines of therapy and activity even in CAR-T cell BCMA-refractory MM (N=7): 1 pt stringent complete (sCR), 3 very good partial (VGPR), 2 partial (PR), and 1 minimal (MR) response (Chari BJH 2020). Here we report on the outcomes of heavily pretreated RRMM pts, a majority of whom had received ADC-BCMA, and who were treated with X-containing regimens on the STOMP trial. Methods STOMP (NCT02343042) is a phase 1b/2, multi-arm, open-label trial of various combinations of X with backbone agents for pts with RRMM or newly diagnosed MM. Here we report on all pts in STOMP with prior anti-BCMA treatment who were treated on STOMP with X+pomalidomide +dexamethasone (XPd); XVd; X+carfilzomib+d (XKd); XPVd; and XPd+elotuzumab (E) (XPEd). Results In total, 11 pts with prior anti-BCMA therapy (6 pts with belantamab mafodotin; 1 each with MEDI2228, SEA-BCMA, BCMA BITE; 2 with idecabtagene vicleucel) were treated with 5 X-containing regimens (Table 1): 9 pts were treated with triplets XPd (4), XVd (3), or XKd (2) and 2 pts with quadruplets XPVd (1) or XPEd (1). Median age was 71 years (range 46-85), 7 pts (63.6%) were women, 11 pts were white. Median duration from MM diagnosis to treatment with a STOMP regimen was 6.9 years (range 2.3-12.8). Five pts (45.5%) had high-risk cytogenetics; pts received median of 6 prior therapies (range 4-10). Eight pts (72.7%) received anti-BCMA in their immediate prior line of therapy. Ten pts (90.9%) were previously treated with all backbone drugs of the STOMP treatments (i.e., X was the only new drug). The overall response rate (ORR) and clinical benefit rate (CBR) for the prior anti-BCMA-containing regimens were 40.0% (2 pts VGPR, 2 PR, 5 stable disease [SD], 1 progressive disease, 1 unknown). Median progression free survival (PFS) was 1.8 months (95% CI: 1.5, NE), and the 6-month PFS probability was 12.5% (95% CI: 2.1, 76.2). ORR for the X-based treatments was 54.5% and CBR was 81.8%: 1 pt VGPR, 5 PR, 3 MR, 2 SD. Median PFS was not reached (95% CI: 5.9, NE) and the 6-month PFS probability was 68.6% (95% CI: 40.3, 100.0). Median overall survival was 10.5 months (95% CI: 9.6, NE) and median time to discontinuation was 8.1 months (95% CI: 6.1, NE). The most common treatment-emergent adverse events were nausea and thrombocytopenia. Nausea was Grade (G) 1/2 (n=8, 72.7%); thrombocytopenia G1-4 in 8 pts (72.7%), 4 with ≥G3; there were no concurrent bleeding events. One pt on XPEd died of pulmonary nocardiosis considered to be associated with the 4-drug regimen. No new safety signals or long-term toxicities due to X were reported. Conclusions In this follow-up cohort of heavily pretreated pts, a majority of whom with MM refractory to ADC-BCMA, we demonstrate impressive potency and durability of the X-based treatments, particularly as compared to that of their prior anti-BCMA therapies. These data support the rationale for the development of novel regimens containing X plus immunomodulatory drugs or proteasome inhibitors in earlier lines of therapy, including first relapse, and further suggest their strong value in the emerging BCMA RRMM space.

Abstract: Background: Selinexor (SEL) is a novel, first-in-class oral selective inhibitor of nuclear export (SINE) which blocks XPO1, forcing the nuclear retention and activation of tumor suppressor proteins, ultimately causing apoptosis in cancer cells. The SVd regimen with once weekly (QW) oral SEL (100 mg), dexamethasone (dex) and QW bortezomib (BOR) had significantly increased progression free survival (PFS) and overall response rate (ORR) with significantly reduced peripheral neuropathy as compared to standard twice weekly BOR/dex (Vd) in the phase III BOSTON study. Pomalidomide (POM) plus dex (Pd) achieved an ORR of 31% and PFS of 4 months in patients (pts) with disease refractory to BOR and lenalidomide (LEN). We hypothesize that the all oral Pd combination with the addition of QW SEL (SPd) would demonstrate improved activity and acceptable tolerability as compared with Pd. Methods: STOMP is a multicenter, open-label, phase 1b/2, dose escalation study with an expansion phase. Pts with RRMM who received ≥ 2 prior therapies including LEN and a proteasome inhibitor (in separate or the same regimens) were eligible for enrollment. Oral SEL was evaluated in 2 different dosing schedules in 28 days cycle: QW 60, 80 or 100 mg or twice weekly (BIW) 60 or 80 mg, with escalating doses of POM 2, 3 or 4 mg (days 1-21), and dex 20 mg BIW or 40 mg QW. The primary objectives of the study were to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD), the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D), and to assess the safety, tolerability, ORR and PFS of the combination of SPd in pts with RRMM. Results: As of June 1 2020, 52 pts (28 male and 24 female) were enrolled. The median age was 64 (range: 43-85) years. Pts received a median of 3 (range: 1-10) prior therapies including 44 (84.6%) with autologous stem cell transplantation. During the escalation phase, eight dose limiting toxicities (DLTs) were observed (Table 1). Common hematologic treatment related adverse events (TRAE) included (All Grades, Grades ≥3) neutropenia (62%, 56%), anemia (60%, 37%), and thrombocytopenia (56%, 35%). Common non-hematologic TRAE included nausea (62%, 2%), fatigue (56%, 12%), decreased appetite (48%, 2%), weight loss (42%, 0%), diarrhea (35%, 0%), vomiting (23%, 2%). Rates of ≥ Grade 3 hematological TRAEs were lower in QW vs BIW schedules of SEL: thrombocytopenia (29% vs 44%) and anemia (32% vs 44%). Based on all of the safety data, the RP2D was SEL 60 mg QW, POM 4 mg (days 1-21), and DEX 40 mg QW. Out of 52 pts, 47 were evaluable for response. Previously treated / refractory rates were as follows (N=47 pts evaluable for efficacy): LEN (100% / 96%), BOR (94%, 45%), carfilzomib (38%, 34%), POM (30%, 30%), daratumumab (21%, 21%). Among POM naïve pts (N=33), all pts (100%) received prior LEN and 31 pts (94%) had MM documented LEN refractory. Among pts who were POM naive (N=33), the ORR was 58% (1 CR, 5 very good partial responses and 13 partial responses) and the median PFS and OS were 12.3 and 19.0 months, respectively. Amongst pts who received POM previously (N=14), the ORR was 36% (1 VGPR and 4 PR), and the median PFS and OS were 8.8 and 8.0 months, respectively. Conclusions: The RP2D is SEL 60 mg QW, POM 4 mg QD and dex 40 mg QW. The ORR was 58% in pts in LEN treated or refractory and POM naïve MM compared to previously published data of 31% ORR with Pd in a similar population. The median PFS on SPd of 12.3 months in POM naïve pts is longer than that historically observed with Pd (~4 months). All TRAEs were expected and manageable with appropriate supportive care (eg, G-CSF) and/or dose modifications. The all oral SPd combination appears to confer relatively high ORR with good durability and promising PFS in pts with heavily pretreated MM.

Abstract: Background : Selinexor (SEL) is a novel, first-in-class oral selective inhibitor of nuclear export (SINE) which blocks exportin 1 (XPO1), forcing the nuclear retention and activation of tumor suppressor proteins that cause cell cycle arrest and apoptosis in cancer cells. The combination of SEL with dexamethasone (dex), each administered twice weekly (BIW), received accelerated approval from the FDA in relapsed refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM). Subsequent evaluations of combination regimens have utilized once weekly (QW) SEL. The addition of oral SEL 100 mg QW to bortezomib also QW with dex (SVd) showed superior PFS and ORR with reduced peripheral neuropathy compared with standard BIW bortezomib plus dex (Dimopoulos et al. JCO 2020). SEL sensitized the activity of carfilzomib (CAR) in PI-resistant MM cell lines in vitro and ex vivo in PI-refractory MM cells derived from bone marrow aspirates of patients (pts) with RRMM. SEL and CAR also showed synergistic anti-tumor activity in a NOD-SCID mice xenograft model in vivo. Furthermore, a phase I trial in RRMM pts demonstrated that the combination of SEL and CAR both administered BIW with DEX showed high overall response rates (ORR) in pts with MM refractory to CAR. Carfilzomib QW was recently approved and we hypothesized that the addition of SEL QW to CAR QW plus dex (SKd) would be synergistic and convenient with an acceptable adverse event (AE) profile. Methods: STOMP is a phase 1b/2 multicenter, open-label, clinical trial with the goals of determining the maximum tolerated dose (MTD), the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) and the ORR according to the International Myeloma Working Group (IMWG) criteria. The starting SEL dose was 100 mg QW with 20/56 mg/m2 QW CAR (20 mg/m2 only on C1D1 and 56 mg/m2 thereafter, dosed Day 1, 8, and 15, 28 days cycle) with 40 mg QW DEX (Table 1). Eligible pts had MM progressing on study entry that was not refractory to CAR, were ≥ 18 years old, with Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) score of 0-2, WBC ≥ 1,500/mm3,Hb ≥ 8.0 g/dL, and platelet count ≥ 75,000/mm3. Results: The MTD was 20/56 mg/m2 CAR + 80 mg SEL + 40 mg DEX, all given QW. As of May 1, 2020, a total of 24 pts enrolled, of which 17 received the MTD. Median age was 70.5 (range, 50-76) years, 62.5% male, median number of prior therapies 3 (range, 1-8). Median years from initial diagnosis 5.0 (range, 2.7-11.3) years. Prior therapies in the 24 pts included bortezomib 24 pts (100%), lenalidomide 23 pts (95.8%), pomalidomide 15 pts (62.5%), daratumumab 14 pts (58.3%) and 19 (79.2%) stem cell transplantation. Common hematopoietic treatment-related AEs (TRAEs) were thrombocytopenia (70.8% all grades, 54.2% grades 3/4) and anemia (54.2%, 20.8%). Common non-hematological TRAEs were nausea (66.7%, 0%), fatigue (54.2%, 8.3%), anorexia (45.8%, 4.2%), weight loss (37.5%, 0%), and dysgeusia (37.5%, 0%). All TRAEs were expected and manageable with appropriate supportive care (eg, TPO receptor agonists for thrombocytopenia) and/or dose modifications; long term cumulative toxicities have not been observed. ORR was 75.0% including 4 CR (16.7%), 7 VGPR (29.2%) and 7 PR (29.2%). There was 1 MR yielding a clinical benefit rate of 79.2%. Amongst the 14 pts previously treated with daratumumab, 8 pts (57.1%) achieved ≥PR, 9 pts (64.3%) achieved ≥MR. Median time to the first response (≥PR) was 28 days (range, 27-98 days). Median progression free survival has not been reached with a median follow-up of 4.4 months. Conclusions: Weekly SKd (20/56 mg/m2 CAR + 80 mg SEL QW + 40 mg DEX QW) is active with an ORR of 75.0% and deep responses (CR 16.7%, VGPR 29.2%) in pts who had a median of 3 prior lines of therapy including bortezomib and lenalidomide. The ORR of 57.1% in patients previously treated with daratumumab warrants further investigation of this once weekly regimen in 1st or 2nd relapse including among patients with prior daratumumab.

Abstract: Multiple myeloma (MM) is a malignancy that is often driven by MYC and that is sustained by IRF4, which are upregulated by super-enhancers. IKZF1 and IKZF3 bind to super-enhancers and can be degraded using immunomodulatory imide drugs (IMiDs). Successful IMiD responses downregulate MYC and IRF4; however, this fails in IMiD-resistant cells. MYC and IRF4 downregulation can also be achieved in IMiD-resistant tumors using inhibitors of BET and EP300 transcriptional coactivator proteins; however, in vivo these drugs have a narrow therapeutic window. By combining IMiDs with EP300 inhibition, we demonstrate greater downregulation of MYC and IRF4, synergistic killing of myeloma in vitro and in vivo, and an increased therapeutic window. Interestingly, this potent combination failed where MYC and IRF4 expression was maintained by high levels of the AP-1 factor BATF. Our results identify an effective drug combination and a previously unrecognized mechanism of IMiD resistance.
