Abstract
Background
In the phase 3 CANDOR trial (NCT03158688), daratumumab added to carfilzomib and dexamethasone (KdD) significantly prolonged progression-free survival relative to carfilzomib and dexamethasone (Kd) alone in previously treated patients with relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM).
Materials and Methods
We present a post hoc analysis of the European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire–Core 30-item module (EORTC QLQ-C30) and EORTC QLQ Myeloma 20-item module (EORTC QLQ-MY20) patient-reported outcome (PRO) measures from the CANDOR trial.
Results
Median (range) duration of observation for PROs was 18.4 (0.9-50.0) months (KdD) and 10.3 (0.9-48.4) months (Kd). PRO compliance rates were high and similar between arms. Mean scores on the EORTC QLQ-C30 global health status (GHS)/quality-of-life (QOL) scale were numerically higher in the KdD than in the Kd arm and were generally sustained or trended toward improvement from baseline. Other EORTC QLQ-C30, EORTC QLQ-MY20, and EQ-5D visual analog scale (VAS) scores were generally similar between treatment arms and were stable over time, with some numerical trends favoring KdD. Risks of deterioration were similar for most scales; hazard ratios suggested improvement for KdD for EORTC QLQ-C30 social functioning, EORTC QLQ-MY20 disease symptoms, and EQ-5D VAS. Results were consistent for lenalidomide-exposed and lenalidomide-refractory subgroups. EORTC QLQ-C30 GHS/QOL scores trended toward improvement at some time points, and other scores remained generally stable when daratumumab was added to carfilzomib and dexamethasone.
Conclusion
These results support the benefits of KdD for the RRMM population, including lenalidomide-exposed and lenalidomide-refractory patients.

Clinical Lymphoma, Myeloma & Leukemia is a peer-reviewed monthly journal that publishes original articles describing various aspects of clinical and translational research of lymphoma, myeloma and leukemia. Clinical Lymphoma, Myeloma & Leukemia is devoted to articles on detection, diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of lymphoma, myeloma, leukemia and related disorders including macroglobulinemia, amyloidosis, and plasma-cell dyscrasias. The main emphasis is on recent scientific developments in all areas related to lymphoma, myeloma and leukemia. Specific areas of interest include clinical research and mechanistic approaches; drug sensitivity and resistance; gene and antisense therapy; pathology, markers, and prognostic indicators; chemoprevention strategies; multimodality therapy; and integration of various approaches.
