DARZALEX® + Velcade® + thalidomide + dexamethasone (DVTd)

Transplant-eligible

DARZALEX® delivers remarkable efficacy in combination with Velcade® (bortezomib), thalidomide and dexamethasone*[1][2]

HIGHLIGHT

Prof. Philippe Moreau presents the latest data from the CASSIOPEIA study – DARZALEX® + VTd in transplant-eligible NDMM

Study design

CASSIOPEIA is a randomised, open-label, active-controlled, multicentre phase 3 study comparing DVTd with VTd alone in newly-diagnosed ASCT-eligible patients with MM. N=1,085[1][2]

* DVTd vs. VTd alone.

Subgroup analyses

DARZALEX® + VTd provided consistently high efficacy across pre-specified patient subgroups[2][3]

  • Consistent rate of sCR across most predefined subgroups[2]
  • Consistent MRD benefit across predefined subgroups including ISS III and high-risk cytogenetics[2][3]
  • PFS benefit maintained across predefined subgroups[2]

* DVTd vs. VTd alone.
† At 10-5 sensitivity threshold compared with VTd alone (p<0.0001).
‡ Assessed 100 days after ASCT.

Safety Profile

DARZALEX® + VTd offers a predictable and manageable tolerability profile[2]
  • Consistent safety profile with known tolerability of regimen components[2]
  • Similar discontinuation rates due to TEAEs for DVTd vs. VTd[2]
  • IRRs were usually Grade 1–2, and the vast majority occurred during the first infusion[2]
