Oral small molecule targeted drug · relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma Phase 3 clinical trial

Official protocol title:A Phase 3, Multicenter, Randomized, Open-Label Study Comparing Venetoclax Plus Dexamethasone Versus Pomalidomide Plus Dexamethasone in Participants with t(11;14)-Positive Relapsed or Refractory Multiple Myeloma

Trial Summary

This project is a Phase 3 clinical trial sponsored by AbbVie, primarily targeted at participants with relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM) who have received at least 2 prior lines of therapy (including lenalidomide and a proteasome inhibitor) and are confirmed to be t(11;14) translocation-positive by FISH. The treatment regimen aims to compare the efficacy of a BCL-2 inhibitor (ABT-199/venetoclax) plus dexamethasone versus an immunomodulatory drug (pomalidomide) plus dexamethasone, administered in 28-day cycles until disease progression. The trial is conducted across a total of 20 top domestic hospitals in China, including the Institute of Hematology & Blood Diseases Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences (Tianjin Institute of Hematology), Guangdong Provincial People's Hospital, The First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University, Peking Union Medical College Hospital, Beijing Chaoyang Hospital, Capital Medical University, as well as 69 leading international medical centers in 16 countries including Australia, Canada, France, and the United States.
