    Abstract:
    INTRODUCTION: This phase Ib study evaluated oprozomib, an oral proteasome inhibitor, plus pomalidomide-dexamethasone in relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM). PATIENTS AND METHODS: Patients received oprozomib once-daily on days 1 to 5 and 15 to 19 (5/14 schedule; 150 mg/day starting dose) or on 2 consecutive days weekly (2/7 schedule; 210 mg/day starting dose) of 28-day cycles, pomalidomide on days 1 to 21 (4 mg/day starting dose), and dexamethasone 20 mg on 2 consecutive days weekly. A 3 + 3 dose-escalation schema was used to determine the maximum tolerated dose. RESULTS: Thirty-one patients were treated (5/14, n = 4; 2/7, n = 27). Oprozomib maximum tolerated dose was not defined. The 2/7 schedule (oprozomib 210 mg/day, pomalidomide 4 mg/day) was selected for dose expansion based on overall safety (n = 17). In this group, the most common adverse events (AEs) were gastrointestinal (diarrhea [88.2%], nausea [58.8%], and vomiting [58.8%]); grade ≥ 3 gastrointestinal AEs were uncommon. The most common grade ≥ 3 AEs were hematologic (anemia [47.1%], neutropenia [35.3%], and thrombocytopenia [29.4%]). One dose-limiting toxicity (gastric hemorrhage) occurred; 3 patients discontinued owing to AEs. The overall response rate was 70.6%. CONCLUSION: Safety and pharmacokinetic profiles were concerns with the oprozomib formulation used in this study and need to be improved. Oprozomib-pomalidomide-dexamethasone (2/7 schedule) had encouraging efficacy, supporting an ongoing phase Ib study evaluating new oprozomib formulations for this combination in relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma.
