Inclusion Criteria:
- Subjects must meet all of the following inclusion criteria to be eligible to enroll
in this study. No enrollment waivers will be granted.
1. Newly diagnosed, previously untreated myeloma requiring systemic chemotherapy
a. Prior treatment of hypercalcemia or spinal cord compression or active and/or
aggressively progressing myeloma with corticosteroids and/or lenalidomide
and/or bortezomib/PI-based regimens does not disqualify the subject (the
corticosteroid treatment dose should not exceed the equivalent of 160 mg of
dexamethasone in a 4 week period or not more than 1 cycle of lenalidomide
and/or PI-based therapy)
2. Both transplant and non-transplant candidates are eligible.
3. Diagnosis of symptomatic multiple myeloma as per current IMWG uniform criteria
prior to initial treatment
4. Monoclonal plasma cells in the BM 10% or presence of a biopsy-proven
plasmacytoma
5. Measurable disease, prior to initial treatment as indicated by one or more of
the following:
1. Serum M-protein ≥ 1 g/dL
2. Urine M-protein ≥ 200 mg/24 hours
3. If serum protein electrophoresis is felt to be unreliable for routine
M-protein measurement, then quantitative immunoglobulin levels are
acceptable (≥ 1 g/dL)
4. Involved serum free light chains ≥ 10 mg/dL provided that free light chain
ratio is abnormal
6. Screening laboratory values must meet the following criteria and should be
obtained within 21 days prior to enrollment WBC ≥ 2000/µL Platelets ≥ 75
x103/µL ANC >1000/µL Hemoglobin > 8.0 g/dL Serum creatinine ≤ 1.5 x ULN or
creatinine clearance (CrCl) ≥ 50 mL/min
1. Use the Cockcroft-Gault formula below):
o Female CrCl = (140 - age in years) x weight in kg x 0.85
- 72 x serum creatinine in mg/dL
o Male CrCl = (140 - age in years) x weight in kg x 1.00
- 72 x serum creatinine in mg/dL
2. Alternatively to Cockcroft-Gault formula of CrCl, 24hr urine CrCl can be
used AST/ALT ≤ 3 x ULN Total Bilirubin ≤ 1.5 x ULN (except subjects with
Gilbert Syndrome, who can have total bilirubin < 3.0 mg/dL) or ≤ 2 x ULN
if lenalidomide is being prescribed.
7. Males and females ≥ 18 years of age
8. ECOG performance status of 0-1
9. Females of childbearing potential (FCBP) must have 2 negative pregnancy tests
(sensitivity of at least 50 mIU/mL) prior to initiating lenalidomide. The first
pregnancy test must be performed within 10-14 days before and the second
pregnancy test must be performed within 24 hours before lenalidomide is
prescribed for Cycle 1 (prescriptions must be filled within 7 days).
10. FCBP must agree to use 2 reliable forms of contraception simultaneously or to
practice complete abstinence from heterosexual intercourse during the following
time periods related to this study: 1) for at least 28 days before starting
lenalidomide; 2) while participating in the study; and 3) for at least 28 days
after discontinuation from the study.
11. Male subjects must agree to use a latex condom during sexual contact with
females of childbearing potential while participating in the study and for at
least 28 days following discontinuation from the study even if he has undergone
a successful vasectomy.
12. All study participants in the US must be consented to and registered into the
mandatory Revlimid REMS program and be willing and able to comply with the
requirements of Revlimid REMS.
13. Voluntary written informed consent
Exclusion Criteria:
- Subjects meeting any of the following exclusion criteria are not eligible to enroll
in this study. No enrollment waivers will be granted.
1. Non-secretory or hyposecretory multiple myeloma, prior to initial treatment
defined as <1.0 g/dL M-protein in serum, <200 mg/24 hr urine M-protein, and no
measurable disease as per IMWG by Freelite.

8. Waldenström's macroglobulinemia or IgM myeloma
9. Participation in an investigational therapeutic study within 3 weeks or within
5 drug half-lives (t1/2) prior to first dose, whichever time is greater

if to single area
18. Major surgery within 3 weeks prior to first dose
19. Subject has clinically significant cardiac disease, including:

or uncontrolled disease/condition related to or affecting cardiac function
(eg, unstable angina, congestive heart failure, New York Heart Association
Class III-IV
