Immune Fitness in Older Adults with Relapsed or Refractory Multiple Myeloma
Official title: Prediction of Response Related to IMmune Age T Cell Fitness in Elderly Patients With Relapsed and Refractory Multiple Myeloma
Run by Jules Bordet Institute · NCT07674498 · Data updated 2026-11-12
This study checks whether immune health before treatment can predict how well older adults with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma respond to CAR-T or bispecific antibody therapies.

Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Patients 65 years or older with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma eligible for CAR-T or bispecific antibody therapies.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients with non-immunotherapy-tied disease biology or those not receiving immune-directed treatments may not benefit from immune profiling.

What this trial studies
This prospective, multicenter, non-interventional study examines how baseline immune fitness relates to treatment outcomes in patients aged 65 and older with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma who are receiving standard-of-care CAR-T or bispecific antibodies. Researchers will perform multiparametric immunophenotyping on pre-treatment blood samples to assess T-cell differentiation, activation, senescence, exhaustion, and helper T-cell subsets, alongside serum biomarkers. Clinical data including frailty, sarcopenia, response, and toxicities will be collected during routine follow-up to explore associations with immune profiles. The primary aim is to see if baseline immune characteristics predict response at 3 months, with secondary analyses evaluating links to toxicity and other outcomes.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, patient immune profiles could help tailor immunotherapy choices and anticipate responses in older adults with RRMM.
How similar studies have gone: Prior studies in immunotherapy have shown that immune markers can correlate with response, but this exact approach in older RRMM patients is exploratory and builds on emerging evidence.
