AZD0120 consolidation vs ASCT in transplant-eligible newly diagnosed multiple myeloma

Official title: A Phase III, Open-label, Multicentre, Randomised Study Comparing Consolidation Treatment With AZD0120, an Autologous Dual Targeting Chimeric Antigen Receptor T-cell (CAR-T) Therapy Directed Against BCMA and CD19, Versus Autologous Stem Cell Transplant (ASCT) in Participants With Newly Diagnosed Multiple Myeloma Who Are Transplant Eligible (TE NDMM) (DURGA-6)

Run by AstraZeneca · NCT07735637 · Data updated 2026-11-12

This study tests whether AZD0120 given as consolidation can work as well as or better than traditional autologous stem cell transplant in transplant-eligible patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma.

Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Adults (≥18 years) with newly diagnosed, transplant-eligible multiple myeloma who have completed 4–6 induction cycles and have at least stable disease after induction.

Probably not a fit

Patients who are not candidates for high-dose therapy or who do not meet eligibility criteria may not benefit from this consolidation strategy.

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This phase 3, multicenter trial compares consolidation therapy with AZD0120 to autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT) in adults with newly diagnosed, transplant-eligible multiple myeloma. Participants will be randomized to receive AZD0120 with lymphodepletion and lenalidomide maintenance or to undergo ASCT with lenalidomide maintenance, with follow-up extending up to 15 years. Primary endpoints include progression-free survival by IMWG criteria and MRD-negative complete response rate at 9 months, assessed by blinded central review. Additional long-term follow-up is planned to evaluate durability of response and safety. Eligible patients must have completed induction therapy and meet performance and organ-function criteria.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, AZD0120 consolidation could offer a non-transplant option that maintains or improves disease control and quality of life for suitable patients.

How similar studies have gone: AZD0120 is being tested in this phase 3 setting; prior similar consolidation approaches have shown promise but this exact comparison to ASCT is being evaluated.
