DKd:

KYPROLIS® + daratumumab + dexamethasone

Response that lasts when it matters most

DKd vs Kd study design (CANDOR): Phase 3, randomized, open-label, multicenter trial that compared KYPROLIS® plus daratumumab and dexamethasone (DKd) to KYPROLIS® plus dexamethasone (Kd) in patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma who had received 1 to 3 prior lines of therapy. 466 patients were randomized 2:1 to receive DKd (n=312) or Kd (n=154) with KYPROLIS® 56 mg/m² twice weekly for 28-day cycles until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. The primary endpoint was PFS. Select secondary endpoints included ORR, MRD-negative CR rate at 12 months, and safety.1-3

DKd showed the power to sustain patients’
PFS for a median of nearly
29 months1

DKd reduced the risk of progression or death by 41% vs Kd at a median follow-up of nearly 28 months (HR = 0.59; 95% CI: 0.45-0.78)1,*

*Primary results were reported after a median follow-up of ~17 months. Median PFS was not reached for DKd vs 15.8 months for Kd (HR = 0.63; 95% CI: 0.46-0.85; P = 0.0014, one-sided).1,2

CI = confidence interval; DKd = carfilzomib + daratumumab + dexamethasone;
HR = hazard ratio; Kd = carfilzomib + dexamethasone; mPFS = median progression-free survival; PFS = progression-free survival.

DKd delivered deep responses with high MRD-negativity rates*

With a median follow-up of ~17 months, DKd delivered higher ORR, ≥ VGPR, CR, and
MRD-negative CR than Kd.2

  • ORR: Patients in the DKd arm achieved an ORR of 84% vs 75% for the Kd arm
    (P = 0.0040, one-sided)2,†

12% of patients achieved MRD-negative CR at 12 months with DKd vs 1.3% with Kd (P < 0.0001, one-sided)2,*

MRD tests detect residual tumor cells in the bone marrow at 100x-10,000x lower concentration than conventional methods of assessing CR3,4,‡

*MRD-negative CR (at the 10-5 level) is defined as achievement of CR per the IMWG-URC and MRD-negative status assessed by the next-generation sequencing assay (ClonoSEQ) at the 12-month landmark (from 8-month to 13-month window).

ORR was defined as the proportion of patients with PR or better.

Based on minimum sensitivity limits of 1 in 105 nucleated cells or higher for MRD-negative CR vs < 5% for CR.4

CR = complete response; DKd = carfilzomib + daratumumab + dexamethasone; IMWG-URC = International Myeloma Working Group-uniform response criteria; Kd = carfilzomib + dexamethasone; MRD = minimal residual disease; ORR = overall response rate; PR = partial response; VGPR = very good partial response.

IMWG uniform response criteria

Minimal residual disease-negative complete response (MRD-negative CR)

Multiple myeloma response criteria: Complete response plus absence of clonal plasma cells by NGS on bone marrow aspirate. Presence of a clone is defined as < 2 identical sequencing reads obtained after DNA sequencing of bone marrow aspirates using the LymphoSIGHT platform (or validated equivalent method) with a minimum sensitivity of 1 in 105 nucleated cells or higher.4

DNA = deoxyribonucleic acid; NGS = next-generation sequencing.

IMWG uniform response criteria

Complete response (CR)

Multiple myeloma response criteria: Negative immunofixation on the serum and urine and disappearance of any soft tissue plasmacytomas and < 5% plasma cells in bone marrow aspirates.4

IMWG uniform response criteria

Very good partial response (VGPR)

Multiple myeloma response criteria: Serum and urine M-protein detectable by immunofixation but not on electrophoresis or ≥ 90% reduction in serum M-protein plus urine M-protein level < 100 mg/24 hours.4

M-protein = monoclonal protein.

IMWG uniform response criteria

Partial response (PR)

Multiple myeloma response criteria: ≥ 50% reduction of serum M-protein and reduction in 24-hour urinary M-protein by ≥ 90% or to < 200 mg/24 hours.

If the serum and urine M-protein are unmeasurable, a ≥ 50% decrease in the difference between involved and uninvolved FLC levels is required in place of the M-protein criteria.

If serum and urine M-protein are unmeasurable, and serum-free light assay is also unmeasurable, ≥ 50% reduction in plasma cells is required in place of the M-protein, provided baseline bone marrow plasma cell percentage was ≥ 30%. In addition to these criteria, if present at baseline, a ≥ 50% reduction in the size (SPD)* of soft tissue plasmacytomas is also required.4

*Plasmacytoma measurements should be taken from the CT portion of the PET/CT, MRI scans, or dedicated CT scans where applicable. For patients with only skin involvement, skin lesions should be measured with a ruler. Measurement of tumor size will be determined by the SPD.

CT = computed tomography; FLC = free light chain; M-protein = monoclonal protein; MRI = magnetic resonance imaging; PET = positron emission tomography; SPD = sum of the products of the maximal perpendicular diameters of measured lesions.

Exploratory analysis for specific patient populations

PFS favorability was consistent across clinically important subgroups1,3

Exploratory Analysis

PFS in predefined subgroups, including prior lenalidomide-exposed, lenalidomide-refractory, and prior PI-exposed.1,3

These results represent prespecified subgroup analyses of the CANDOR study; however, these analyses were not study objectives and the study was therefore not powered or adjusted for multiplicity to assess efficacy in these subgroups.3

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION FOR KYPROLIS®

Cardiac Toxicities

  • New onset or worsening of pre-existing cardiac failure (e.g., congestive heart failure, pulmonary edema, decreased ejection fraction), cardiomyopathy, myocardial ischemia, and myocardial infarction including fatalities have occurred following administration of KYPROLIS®. Some events occurred in patients with normal baseline ventricular function. Death due to cardiac arrest has occurred within one day of administration.
  • Monitor patients for signs or symptoms of cardiac failure or ischemia. Evaluate promptly if cardiac toxicity is suspected. Withhold KYPROLIS® for Grade 3 or 4 cardiac adverse reactions until recovery, and consider whether to restart at 1 dose level reduction based on a benefit/risk assessment.
  • While adequate hydration is required prior to each dose in Cycle 1, monitor all patients for evidence of volume overload, especially patients at risk for cardiac failure. Adjust total fluid intake as clinically appropriate.
  • For patients ≥ 75 years, the risk of cardiac failure is increased. Patients with New York Heart Association Class III and IV heart failure, recent myocardial infarction, conduction abnormalities, angina, or arrhythmias may be at greater risk for cardiac complications and should have a comprehensive medical assessment prior to starting treatment with KYPROLIS® and remain under close follow-up with fluid management.

Acute Renal Failure

  • Cases of acute renal failure, including some fatal renal failure events, and renal insufficiency (including renal failure) have occurred. Acute renal failure was reported more frequently in patients with advanced relapsed and refractory multiple myeloma who received KYPROLIS® monotherapy. Monitor renal function with regular measurement of the serum creatinine and/or estimated creatinine clearance. Reduce or withhold dose as appropriate.

Tumor Lysis Syndrome

  • Cases of Tumor Lysis Syndrome (TLS), including fatal outcomes, have occurred. Patients with a high tumor burden should be considered at greater risk for TLS. Adequate hydration is required prior to each dose in Cycle 1, and in subsequent cycles as needed. Consider uric acid lowering drugs in patients at risk for TLS. Monitor for evidence of TLS during treatment and manage promptly, and withhold until resolved.

Pulmonary Toxicity

  • Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS), acute respiratory failure, and acute diffuse infiltrative pulmonary disease such as pneumonitis and interstitial lung disease have occurred. Some events have been fatal. In the event of drug-induced pulmonary toxicity, discontinue KYPROLIS®.

Pulmonary Hypertension

  • Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) was reported. Evaluate with cardiac imaging and/or other tests as indicated. Withhold KYPROLIS® for PAH until resolved or returned to baseline and consider whether to restart based on a benefit/risk assessment.

Dyspnea

  • Dyspnea was reported in patients treated with KYPROLIS®. Evaluate dyspnea to exclude cardiopulmonary conditions including cardiac failure and pulmonary syndromes. Stop KYPROLIS® for Grade 3 or 4 dyspnea until resolved or returned to baseline. Consider whether to restart based on a benefit/risk assessment.

Hypertension

  • Hypertension, including hypertensive crisis and hypertensive emergency, has been observed, some fatal. Control hypertension prior to starting KYPROLIS®. Monitor blood pressure regularly in all patients. If hypertension cannot be adequately controlled, withhold KYPROLIS® and evaluate. Consider whether to restart based on a benefit/risk assessment.

Venous Thrombosis

  • Venous thromboembolic events (including deep venous thrombosis and pulmonary embolism) have been observed. Provide thromboprophylaxis for patients being treated with the combination of KYPROLIS® with dexamethasone or with lenalidomide plus dexamethasone or with daratumumab and dexamethasone. The thromboprophylaxis regimen should be based on an assessment of the patient’s underlying risks.
  • For patients using hormonal contraception associated with a risk of thrombosis, consider an alternative method of effective contraception during treatment.

Infusion-Related Reactions

  • Infusion-related reactions, including life-threatening reactions, have occurred. Signs and symptoms include fever, chills, arthralgia, myalgia, facial flushing, facial edema, laryngeal edema, vomiting, weakness, shortness of breath, hypotension, syncope, chest tightness, or angina. These reactions can occur immediately following or up to 24 hours after administration. Premedicate with dexamethasone to reduce the incidence and severity of infusion-related reactions.

Hemorrhage

  • Fatal or serious cases of hemorrhage have been reported. Hemorrhagic events have included gastrointestinal, pulmonary, and intracranial hemorrhage and epistaxis. Promptly evaluate signs and symptoms of blood loss. Reduce or withhold dose as appropriate.

Thrombocytopenia

  • KYPROLIS® causes thrombocytopenia with recovery to baseline platelet count usually by the start of the next cycle. Monitor platelet counts frequently during treatment. Reduce or withhold dose as appropriate.

Hepatic Toxicity and Hepatic Failure

  • Cases of hepatic failure, including fatal cases, have occurred. KYPROLIS® can cause increased serum transaminases. Monitor liver enzymes regularly regardless of baseline values. Reduce or withhold dose as appropriate.

Thrombotic Microangiopathy

  • Cases of thrombotic microangiopathy, including thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura/hemolytic uremic syndrome (TTP/HUS), including fatal outcome, have occurred. Monitor for signs and symptoms of TTP/HUS. Discontinue if diagnosis is suspected. If the diagnosis of TTP/HUS is excluded, KYPROLIS® may be restarted. The safety of reinitiating KYPROLIS® is not known.

Posterior Reversible Encephalopathy Syndrome (PRES)

  • Cases of PRES have occurred in patients receiving KYPROLIS®. If PRES is suspected, discontinue and evaluate with appropriate imaging. The safety of reinitiating KYPROLIS® is not known.

Progressive Multifocal Leukoencephalopathy (PML)

  • Cases of PML, including fatal cases, have occurred. In addition to KYPROLIS®, other contributary factors may include prior or concurrent use of immunosuppressive therapy. Consider PML in any patient with new onset of or changes in pre-existing neurological signs or symptoms. If PML is suspected, discontinue and initiate evaluation for PML including neurology consultation.

Increased Fatal and Serious Toxicities in Combination with Melphalan and Prednisone in Newly Diagnosed Transplant-ineligible Patients

  • In a clinical trial of transplant-ineligible patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma comparing KYPROLIS®, melphalan, and prednisone (KMP) vs bortezomib, melphalan, and prednisone (VMP), a higher incidence of serious and fatal adverse reactions was observed in patients in the KMP arm. KMP is not indicated for transplant-ineligible patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma.

Embryo-fetal Toxicity

  • KYPROLIS® can cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman.
  • Advise pregnant women of the potential risk to a fetus. Females of reproductive potential should use effective contraception during treatment with KYPROLIS® and for 6 months following the final dose. Males of reproductive potential should use effective contraception during treatment with KYPROLIS® and for 3 months following the final dose.

Adverse Reactions

  • The most common adverse reactions occurring in at least 20% of patients taking KYPROLIS® in the combination therapy trials: anemia, diarrhea, hypertension, fatigue, upper respiratory tract infection, thrombocytopenia, pyrexia, cough, dyspnea, and insomnia.
