About this trial

This phase I study utilizes a 3+3 design with escalating cohorts of Carfilzomib at 20mg/m2, 27mg/m2, 36mg/m2, 45mg/m2, 56mg/m2, and 70mg/m2 to be administered concomitantly with Cyclophosphamide 2 gm/m2, Dexamethasone and Granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF)

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Serum monoclonal protein ≥ 0.5 g/dL

≥200 mg of monoclonal protein in the urine on 24-hour electrophoresis

Serum immunoglobulin free light chain: involved FLC ≥ 10 mg/dL (≥ 100 mg/L) AND abnormal serum immunoglobulin kappa to lambda free light chain ratio

MRD positivity in peripheral blood by flow cytometry.

Disqualifiers

Subject has a history of allergic reactions to compounds containing captisol, or Carfilzomib

Subject has a NYHA Class III or IV heart disease and/or a history of active unstable angina, congestive heart disease, severe uncontrolled cardiac arrhythmia, electrocardiographic evidence of acute ischemia, active conduction system abnormalities or myocardial infarction within 6 months prior to enrollment. Prior to study entry, any ECG abnormality at Screening has to be documented by the investigator as not medically relevant.

Uncontrolled hypertension.

Pulmonary hypertension.

Treatments tested in this trial

  • Carfilzomib

    Drug

    Carfilzomib will be administered over 10 minutes for the 20 mg/m2 and 27 mg/m2 dose and over 30 minutes for all higher doses.

  • Cyclophosphamide

    Drug

    Cyclophosphamide dosed at 2gm/m2 administered over 1 hour.

  • Dexamethasone

    Drug

    Dexamethasone 40mg IV/PO to be administered as a premedication.

  • Granulocyte Colony-Stimulating Factor

    Drug

    On day 7 subjects will initiate high dose G-CSF injections at 14mcg/kg daily (with a cap of 1440mcg daily).
