Phase 2, single-arm trial in ultra high-risk, newly diagnosed, transplant-eligible multiple myeloma (including pPCL and EMM) tests a daratumumab + carfilzomib-based program with ASCT: induction Dara-KRd-PACE (optional pretrial VCD), ASCT (melphalan), consolidation Dara-KRd, maintenance Dara-Kd. Drug types/mechanisms: daratumumab - anti-CD38 monoclonal antibody mediating plasma-cell killing via ADCC/CDC/ADCP and apoptosis, carfilzomib - irreversible 20S proteasome inhibitor causing proteotoxic/ER-stress apoptosis, lenalidomide - IMiD/cereblon modulator degrading IKZF1/3 and boosting T and NK immunity, dexamethasone - glucocorticoid, lympholytic, cisplatin and melphalan - DNA crosslinking/alkylating agents, epirubicin - anthracycline, topo II inhibitor, cyclophosphamide - alkylator, etoposide - topo II poison, bortezomib - reversible proteasome inhibitor. Targets/pathways: CD38-positive malignant plasma cells, ubiquitin-proteasome system, cereblon/IKZF, DNA damage/repair and topo II pathways, and immune effector cytotoxicity.
