Carfilzomib, Cyclophosphamide and Dexamethasone (KCd) Versus Bortezomib, Cyclophosphamide and Dexamethasone (VCd) For Treatment of First Relapse or Primary Refractory Multiple Myeloma (MM): Final Analysis of the Phase 2 MUK five Study   Kwee L Yong, Samantha Hinsley, Holger Auner, Debbie Sherratt, Ruth M de Tute, Sarah Brown, Louise Flanagan, Catherine Williams, Jamie Cavenagh, Martin F Kaiser, Neil Rabin, Karthik Ramasamy, Mamta Garg, Stephen Hawkins, Ceri Bygrave, Gareth Morgan, Faith Davies and Roger G Owen on behalf of the MUK five investigators and Myeloma UK Early Phase Clinical Trial Network

MUK five: Background Head-to-head comparisons of carfilzomib with bortezomib have used differing dosing schedules in different patient groups ENDEAVOR in Relapsed disease: Carfilzomib 20/56mg/m2 + Dex vs Bortezomib + Dex (Doublet, extended therapy) CLARION in ND NTE MM: Carfilzomib 20/36mg/m2 + Melphalan + Prednisolone (MP) vs Bortezomib + MP (Triplet, nine cycles) FOCUS in Relapsed double refractory patients: Carfilzomib 20/27mg/m2 vs Cyclophosphamide + Prednisolone (Single agent extended therapy) Triplet regimens are standard of care in relapsed setting We designed MUK five to assess anti-myeloma activity of carfilzomib versus bortezomib in triplet regimen with Cyclo + Dex at second line only Need to check the literature on bortezomib triplets

ENDEAVOR Study Design Cd Vd Randomisation 1:1 N=929 Stratification: Carfilzomib 56 mg/m2 IV Days 1, 2, 8, 9, 15, 16 (20 mg/m2 days 1, 2, cycle 1 only) Infusion duration: 30 minutes for all doses Dexamethasone 20 mg Days 1, 2, 8, 9, 15, 16, 22, 23 28-day cycles until PD or unacceptable toxicity Randomisation 1:1 N=929 Stratification: Prior proteasome inhibitor therapy Prior lines of treatment ISS stage Route of V administration Vd Bortezomib 1.3 mg/m2 (IV bolus or subcutaneous injection) Days 1, 4, 8, 11 Dexamethasone 20 mg Days 1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 9, 11, 12 21-day cycles until PD or unacceptable toxicity ISS, International Staging System; IV, intravenous; Cd, carfilzomib and dexamethasone; PD, progressive disease; Vd, bortezomib and dexamethasone; V, bortezomib.

MUK five: Summary and Conclusions KCd results in higher ORR compared to VCd over 6 months fixed duration 81.6% of patients completed KCd treatment compared to 53.5% for VCd Adverse events were consistent with known toxicity profile of each drug More neurotoxicity with bortezomib but more cardiac AE’s and hypertension with carfilzomib Maintenance K was well tolerated and associated with longer PFS. Use of KCd triplet for fixed duration followed by maintenance K resulted in combined PFS of 18.1m
