Belantamab mafodotin, pomalidomide and dexamethasone in refractory multiple myeloma: a phase 1/2 trial
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Due to evolving treatment standards for newly diagnosed multiple myeloma, many patients will be triple-class exposed after initial relapses and have poor survival. Novel therapies and combinations are therefore required to improve outcomes. B cell maturation antigen (BCMA)-targeted biologics have emerged as an important new area of therapeutics for relapsed multiple myeloma. The two-part ALGONQUIN trial evaluated various doses and schedules of the anti-BCMA antibody-drug conjugate belantamab mafodotin plus pomalidomide and dexamethasone for patients who are lenalidomide refractory and proteosome inhibitor exposed. The primary endpoints, including evaluating dose-limiting toxicities, establishing the recommended Part 2 dose (RP2D) and overall response rate for patients treated at the RP2D, were met. Secondary efficacy endpoints included progression-free survival and overall survival. Patients treated on study (N = 87) had a median of three previous regimens and 55.2% were triple-class refractory. At the RP2D the most common adverse events were decrease in best-corrected visual acuity (71.1%), keratopathy (65.8%), fatigue (57.9%), infection (47.4%; 7.9% grade ≥3), neutropenia (39.5%) and thrombocytopenia (39.5%). For RP2D patients (n = 38), the overall response rate was 85.3%, ≥very good partial response 75.7% and estimated two-year progression-free survival 52.8% (95% confidence interval, 33.9% to 82.4%), at a median follow-up of 13.9 months. The RP2D schedule was associated with manageable antibody-drug conjugate-associated corneal adverse events and improved tolerability without compromising efficacy. Belantamab mafodotin plus pomalidomide and dexamethasone induced durable responses with promising overall survival in relapsed multiple myeloma, the results of which are yet to be confirmed in the phase 3 DREAMM-8 study.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
