Inclusion criteria

  • {"criterion_text":"- 1. Histologic diagnosis of AL amyloidosis and typed with immunohistochemistry/ immunofluorescence, immunoelectron microscopy, or mass spectrometry. In patients with biopsy-confirmed amyloidosis, ambiguous amyloid typing results, and cardiac involvement alone, a negative pyrophosphate (PYP) or technetium-99m (99mTc) and 3,3-diphosphono-1,2-propanodicarboxylic acid (DPD-Tc99m) bone scan is required to distinguish cardiac involvement due to AL amyloidosis from amyloid transthyretin (ATTR) amyloidosis. Data from the initial diagnosis are accepted.\n- 2. Genetic testing must be negative for transthyretin mutations associated with hereditary amyloidosis, or immunohistochemistry/ immunofluorescence/ immunoelectron microscopy/ mass spectrometry of amyloid deposits must provide clear evidence of κ or λ light chains in patients who present with peripheral neuropathy or heart as the dominant organ involvement. Data from the initial diagnosis are accepted.\n- 3. Age ≥ 18 years.\n- 4. Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status 0,1 or 2.\n- 5. Mayo stage I–IIIA cardiac disease at Screening (see Appendix K for the definition of Mayo stages of cardiac disease).\n- 6. Relapsed patients must have received at least 1 line of treatment, including Dara and bortezomib. Patients must have received at least two cycles of therapy.\n- 7. Measurable hematologic disease: a dFLC >20 mg/L with an abnormal κ/λ ratio (with Freelite® test kits, The Binding Site) or presence of a monoclonal spike ≥0.5 g/dL.\n- 8. At least one symptomatic organ involvement (heart, kidney, liver, gastrointestinal [GI] tract or peripheral nervous system) (see Appendix B for the definition of symptomatic organ involvement).\n- 9. A wash-out period of at least 14 days from the date of the last administration of any previous antitumor therapy or investigational treatment, meaning that the patient must not have received any treatment for AL amyloidosis for at least 14 days prior to Cycle 1 Day 1 (C1D1) of this trial."}

Exclusion criteria

  • {"criterion_text":"- 1. Amyloid-specific syndrome, such as carpal tunnel syndrome or skin purpura, as the only evidence of disease. The finding of isolated vascular amyloid in a bone marrow biopsy specimen or in a plasmacytoma is not indicative of systemic amyloidosis.\n- 2. Isolated soft-tissue involvement.\n- 3. Presence of non-AL amyloidosis.\n- 4. Previous anti-BCMA targeted therapy (including, but not limited to, bispecifics).\n- 5. Intolerance to dexamethasone that would prohibit treatment with trial therapy.\n- 6. MM diagnosed as per the International Myeloma Working Group (IMWG) criteria, with the exception of monoclonal gammopathy of unknown significance (MGUS) or smoldering myeloma, not requiring treatment. Note: A MM diagnosis with a serum FLC ratio >100, as the only myeloma-defining event, does NOT constitute an exclusion.\n- 7. All hematologic malignancies, with the exception of low-risk Philadelphia chromosome negative (Ph-) myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs) and low-risk myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS), not requiring treatment.\n- 8. Mayo stage IIIB cardiac disease at Screening (see Appendix K for the definition of Mayo stage IIIB of cardiac disease)."}
