The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has accepted for Priority Review the supplemental Biologics License Application (sBLA) for the investigational use of Sarclisa (isatuximab) in combination with bortezomib, lenalidomide and dexamethasone (VRd) for the treatment of patients with transplant-ineligible newly diagnosed multiple myeloma (NDMM).

Key Points: 
  • The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has accepted for Priority Review the supplemental Biologics License Application (sBLA) for the investigational use of Sarclisa (isatuximab) in combination with bortezomib, lenalidomide and dexamethasone (VRd) for the treatment of patients with transplant-ineligible newly diagnosed multiple myeloma (NDMM).
  • If approved, Sarclisa would be the first anti-CD38 therapy in combination with standard-of-care VRd in newly diagnosed patients not eligible for transplant, which would be the third indication for Sarclisa in multiple myeloma.
  • “Despite recent advancements in multiple myeloma treatment, there remains a significant unmet need for new frontline therapies, particularly for transplant-ineligible patients who can face poor outcomes from the disease.
  • The safety and tolerability of Sarclisa observed in this study was consistent with the established safety profile of Sarclisa and VRd.

Press Release: Sarclisa® (isatuximab) plus KRd significantly improved rate of minimal residual disease negativity in transplant-eligible patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma versus KRd alone

The Phase 3 trial investigating Sarclisa® (isatuximab) in combination with carfilzomib, lenalidomide and dexamethasone (KRd) showed a statistically significant improvement in the rate of minimal residual disease (MRD) negativity, compared with KRd alone, after autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT) consolidation in transplant-eligible patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma (MM).

Key Points: 
  • The Phase 3 trial investigating Sarclisa® (isatuximab) in combination with carfilzomib, lenalidomide and dexamethasone (KRd) showed a statistically significant improvement in the rate of minimal residual disease (MRD) negativity, compared with KRd alone, after autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT) consolidation in transplant-eligible patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma (MM).
  • The respective rates of MRD negativity at sensitivity of 10-6 were 67% versus 48% (OR 1.93; p=0.006).
  • There was a statistically significant difference in MRD negativity rates after induction with Sarclisa in combination with KRd versus KRd (10-5: 45% versus 26%, p
  • Effective front-line treatment is critical for newly diagnosed patients, because achieving undetectable levels of disease early in the treatment journey may lead to better long-term outcomes.

  • The Phase 3 IMROZ trial evaluating the investigational use of Sarclisa® (isatuximab) in combination with standard-of-care bortezomib, lenalidomide and dexamethasone (VRd) met its primary endpoint at a planned interim analysis for efficacy, demonstrating statistically significant improvement in progression-free survival (PFS) compared with VRd alone in transplant-ineligible patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma (MM).
  • This is also the second Phase 3 trial investigating Sarclisa in newly diagnosed patients to show superiority versus standard of care.
