PANORAMA 2: A PHASE II STUDY OF PANOBINOSTAT IN COMBINATION WITH BORTEZOMIB AND DEXAMETHASONE IN PATIENTS WITH RELAPSED AND BORTEZOMIB-REFRACTORY MULTIPLE MYELOMA

8012 Background: Patients (pts) with multiple myeloma (MM) refractory to bortezomib (BTZ) and an immunomodulatory drug have limited treatment options and a poor prognosis. In a phase I study of pts with relapsed or relapsed/refractory MM treated with panobinostat (PAN) + BTZ, clinical responses were observed overall and in pts with BTZ-refractory disease. We report results in PANORAMA 2, a trial in relapsed and BTZ-refractory pts. Methods: PANORAMA 2 is a single-arm, phase II study of PAN + BTZ + dexamethasone (Dex) in pts with relapsed and BTZ-refractory MM. Treatment phase 1 (TP1) consists of eight 3-week cycles of oral PAN + intravenous BTZ + oral Dex. Pts demonstrating clinical benefit enter treatment phase 2 (TP2) which consists of four 6-week cycles of PAN + BTZ + Dex. The primary endpoint is overall response (≥ partial response [PR]) in TP1. Results: Fifty-five pts with BTZ-refractory MM were enrolled with 10 pts ongoing and 28 in follow-up. The median age was 61 years (range 41-88 years). Pts were...
