Leflunomide for the Treatment of High-Risk Smoldering Multiple Myeloma (NCT04370483)

Pilot Trial of Leflunomide in Patients With High-Risk Smoldering Multiple Myeloma

๐Ÿ”ต Active, Not Recruiting Early Phase1 ๐Ÿ’Š Investigational Drug / Biologic Sponsor: City of Hope Medical Center

๐Ÿฉบ Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)

This pilot trial studies how well leflunomide works for the treatment of patients with high-risk smoldering plasma cell myeloma, for the delay of disease progression. Anti-inflammatory drugs, such as leflunomide lower the body's immune response and are used with other drugs in the treatment of some types of cancer. The information learned from this study will help researchers to learn more about the anti-myeloma activity of leflunomide, and whether it may delay the onset of symptomatic multiple myeloma in patients with high-risk smoldering multiple myeloma.
