Recurrent Plasma Cell Myeloma Refractory Plasma Cell Myeloma | Drug: Bortezomib Drug: Dexamethasone Other: Laboratory Biomarker Analysis Other: Pharmacological Study Biological: Wild-type Reovirus | Phase 1 |
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) with the maximum REOLYSIN (wild-type reovirus) dose limited to 4.5 x 10^10 tissue culture infection dose (TCID)50 and the safety profile of REOLYSIN in combination with bortezomib and dexamethasone in patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma (MM). (Phase 1b) II. To further explore the safety and tolerability of the combination and to determine the overall response rate (ORR) (complete response [CR] + partial response [PR]) to REOLYSIN in combination with bortezomib and dexamethasone in patients with relapsed or refractory MM. (Phase 1b Dose Expansion)
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To determine ORR in the Phase 1b part to the combination at escalating doses.
II. To determine the progression-free survival (PFS) of patients with relapsed or refractory MM treated with REOLYSIN in combination with bortezomib and dexamethasone.
III. To evaluate the effect of REOLYSIN in combination with bortezomib and dexamethasone treatments on overall survival (OS).
IV. To conduct pharmacodynamic studies as described.
OUTLINE: This is a phase Ib, dose-escalation study of wild-type reovirus followed by a phase Ib expansion trial.
Patients receive dexamethasone orally (PO), intravenously (IV), or intramuscularly (IM) and bortezomib subcutaneously (SC) (preferably) or IV over 3-5 seconds on days 1, 8, and 15. Patients also receive wild-type reovirus IV over 60 minutes on days 1, 2, 8, 9, 15, and 16. Courses repeat every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up at 1 month and then every 3 months thereafter.

Experimental: Treatment (dexamethasone, bortezomib, wild-type reovirus)
Patients receive dexamethasone PO, IV, or IM and bortezomib SC (preferably) or IV over 3-5 seconds on days 1, 8, and 15. Patients also receive wild-type reovirus IV over 60 minutes on days 1, 2, 8, 9, 15, and 16. Courses repeat every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

- Incidence of adverse events assessed by CTCAE version 4.03 [ Time Frame: Up to 30 days post-treatment ]The safety of the bortezomib, dexamethasone, and wild-type reovirus combination will be assessed by the evaluation of the type, frequency, and severity of adverse events.
- ORR [ Time Frame: Up to 3 years ]Will determine ORR (CR + PR) in the Phase 1b part to the combination at escalating doses.

- Have NO continuing acute toxic effects (except alopecia) of any prior chemotherapy, radiotherapy or surgical procedures; all such effects must have resolved to Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE, Version 4.03) grade =< 1; surgery (except minor procedures such as biopsies, IV line placement, etc.) must have occurred at least 28 days prior to study enrollment
- Have received NO anti-cancer therapy within 28 days prior to receiving study drug
- Have received NO radiotherapy within 14 days prior to receiving study drug
- Have an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) Performance score =< 2
- Have a life expectancy of at least 3 months
- Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) >= 1 x 10^9 (International System [SI] units 10^9/L) (with or without filgrastim [G-CSF])
- Platelets >= 50 x10^9 (SI units 10^9/L)
- Serum creatinine =< 2 x upper limit of normal (ULN)
- Bilirubin =< 1.5 x ULN
- Aspartate aminotransferase (AST)/alanine aminotransferase (ALT) =< 3 x ULN (=< 5 x ULN if patients have liver involvement with MM)
- Proteinuria < grade 2
- Have a negative pregnancy test if a female with childbearing potential
- Have signed an informed consent indicating that the patient is aware of the neoplastic nature of their disease and have been informed of the procedures of the protocol, the experimental nature of the therapy, possible alternative therapies, potential benefits, side effects, risks, and discomforts
- Be willing and able to comply with scheduled visits, the treatment plan, and laboratory tests
Exclusion Criteria:
- Have a history of or current evidence of intracranial disease; patients with brain metastases must be excluded from this clinical trial
- Be on immunosuppressive therapy or have human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection or active hepatitis B or C
