What this Trial Is About
Researchers are evaluating a combination treatment involving actinium Ac 225-DOTA-daratumumab 225Ac-DOTA-daratumumab, daratumumab, and indium In 111-DOTA-daratumumab 111In-DOTA-daratumumab for patients with multiple myeloma that has returned or does not respond to previous treatments. This phase I trial aims to test the safety, side effects, and best dose of these combined therapies, which use a monoclonal antibody linked to radioactive tracers to target and attack cancer cells.
Patients receive daratumumab through an intravenous infusion lasting 45 minutes. Two hours later, they receive both 111In-DOTA-daratumumab and 225Ac-DOTA-daratumumab intravenously over 20 to 30 minutes. The study uses a dose-escalation approach to find the maximum tolerated dose and recommended dose for future studies. After treatment, patients are followed closely with weekly visits for 8 weeks, biweekly visits for 4 weeks, monthly visits for 16 weeks, and then periodic check-ups up to 12 months.
During the study, participants will undergo multiple assessments including blood and bone marrow tests, imaging scans to track how the treatment spreads in the body, and evaluations of how well the cancer responds. Researchers will monitor side effects, overall response, survival rates, and how long the treatment controls the disease. The total involvement can last up to a year, with detailed follow-up to ensure safety and measure treatment effects.

This table compares participation in this trial with other options available for this condition. The information is drawn from published research and the trial’s study details and is provided for educational purposes only.
Factors
Investigational radioimmunotherapy
FDA‑approved BCMA‑targeted regimen
What this option is
A single‑arm investigational radioimmunotherapy combining daratumumab labeled with actinium‑225 and indium‑111 (DOTA‑daratumumab) delivered intravenously
An FDA‑approved antibody‑drug conjugate (belantamab mafodotin) targeting BCMA, given with bortezomib and dexamethasone
Role in trial
Evaluated as the investigational therapy in a single‑group study
Used only as external clinical context, not part of the trial
Primary clinical use
Being studied as treatment for patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma after daratumumab failure
Approved treatment for similar patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma after two prior lines including daratumumab
How it is given or performed
Intravenous infusions of DOTA‑daratumumab labeled with radioactive isotopes actinium‑225 and indium‑111
Given intravenously or subcutaneously (as part of standard practice) alongside bortezomib and dexamethasone per approved regimens
Evidence maturity
Early‑phase, first‑in‑human evaluation with results not yet posted
Supported by randomized phase III DREAMM‑7 data showing improved progression‑free and overall survival
Important risks
Not yet established in humans; potential radiation‑related toxicities unknown
Ocular toxicity is common and may be severe; requires REMS monitoring
Important limitations
Single‑arm design without comparator; safety and efficacy still unknown
Ocular toxicity may limit tolerability; not directly compared to radioimmunotherapy
