When to Consider Retreatment
• Differences between biochemical relapse and symptomatic
relapse need to be considered
• Patients with asymptomatic rise in M-protein can be
observed to determine the rate of rise and nature of the
relapse
– Caveat: patients with known aggressive or high-risk disease
should be considered for salvage even in the setting of
biochemical relapse
• CRAB criteria are still listed as the indication to treat in the
relapsed setting
– C: Calcium elevation (> 11.5 mg/L or ULN)
R: Renal dysfunction (serum creatinine > 2 mg/dL)
A: Anemia (Hb < 10 g/dL or 2 g < normal)
B: Bone disease (lytic lesions or osteoporosis)
Considerations in Patients With
Relapsed/Refractory Myeloma
• Previous therapy
• Response to previous therapy
• Patient characteristics and other prognostic factors
– Older than 65 yrs of age
– Increased β2-M, decreased serum albumin, low platelet count
– Cytogenetic abnormalities: del(13q), t(4;14)
– Renal dysfunction
• Up to 50% of patients with MM have renal dysfunction
• Between 20% and 30% of patients have concomitant renal
failure
– Extensive bone disease; extramedullary MM

At a median follow-up of 20.8 mos, median PFS has not been reached in the 10 mg/kg arm
– Preliminary median PFS of 26.9 mos was reported in the abstract; after 2.7 mos of additional
follow-up, no new PD or death reported. These pts had an increased PFS duration, and in the
updated analysis, median PFS was not yet reached
Richardson et al. ASH 2012
Phase 2 Elotuzumab + Lenalidomide LowDose Dex in Relapsed/Refractory MM
• Elotuzumab plus lenalidomide and low-dose dexamethasone has a
high ORR in relapsed and relapsed/refractory MM
– 82% for all pts (91% in pts who had received only 1 prior therapy)
– 92% for pts treated with elotuzumab 10 mg/kg
Median PFS was 33 mos for patients receiving elotuzumab
10 mg/kg
• The combination was generally well tolerated
– Most common Grade 3/4 treatment-emergent AEs were neutropenia
(16%), thrombocytopenia (16%), and lymphopenia (16%)
– Premedication regimen decreased incidence and mitigated severity
of infusion reactions*
