Phase 2 Trial of MLN9708 (Ixazomib) in Patients With Relapsed Multiple Myeloma Not Refractory to Bortezomib

This randomized phase II trial studies how well ixazomib (ixazomib citrate) works in treating
patients with multiple myeloma that has returned after a period of improvement but is not
resistant to bortezomib. Ixazomib citrate may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking
some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To determine the confirmed overall response rate (>= partial response [PR]) of MLN9708
(ixazomib citrate), used as a single agent in patients with relapsed multiple myeloma, who
are proteasome inhibitor naïve (including bortezomib) naive OR have received less than 6
cycles of therapy with bortezomib and had a better than PR with no progression at the time of
discontinuation. (Arm A - Permanently closed to accrual as of Addendum 5) II. To determine
the confirmed overall response rate (>= PR) of MLN9708 at a 4 mg dose level in combination
with dexamethasone in patients with relapsed multiple myeloma, who are proteasome inhibitor
naïve (including bortezomib) naïve OR have received less than 6 cycles of therapy with
bortezomib and had a better than PR with no progression at the time of discontinuation. (Arm
B) III. To determine the confirmed overall response rate (>= PR) of MLN9708 at a 5.5 mg dose
level in combination with dexamethasone in patients with relapsed multiple myeloma, who are
proteasome inhibitor naïve (including bortezomib) naïve OR have received less than 6 cycles
of therapy with bortezomib and had a better than PR with no progression at the time of
discontinuation. (Arm C) IV. To determine the confirmed overall response rate (>= PR) of
MLN9708 in combination with cyclophosphamide and dexamethasone in patients with relapsed
multiple myeloma, who are proteasome inhibitor naive (including bortezomib) naïve OR have
received less than 6 cycles of therapy with bortezomib and had a better than PR with no
progression at the time of discontinuation. (Arm D)

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To determine the overall response rate of MLN9708 in combination with dexamethasone, when
dexamethasone is added to MLN9708 for lack of response or for progression. (Arm A) II. To
determine the event free survival and overall survival among patients with relapsed myeloma
following treatment with MLN9708 with dexamethasone added for lack of response or
progression. (Arm A) III. To determine the event free survival and overall survival among
patients with relapsed myeloma following treatment with MLN9708 at two different doses, in
combination with dexamethasone. (Arms B and C) IV. To determine the event free survival and
overall survival among patients with relapsed myeloma following treatment with MLN9708 in
combination with cyclophosphamide and dexamethasone. (Arms D)

OUTLINE: Patients are randomized to 1 of 3 treatment arms (Arm A permanently closed to
accrual as of Addendum 5).

ARM A: Patients receive ixazomib citrate orally (PO) on days 1, 8, and 15. Patients with lack
of minor response by the end of the second course or lack of partial response by the end of
the fourth course also receive dexamethasone PO on days 1, 2, 8, 9, 15, and 16. Courses
repeat every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

ARM B: Patients receive ixazomib citrate PO on days 1, 8 and 15 and dexamethasone PO on days
1, 8, and 15. Courses repeat every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or
unacceptable toxicity.

ARM C: Patients receive higher dose of ixazomib citrate PO on days 1, 8, and 15 and
dexamethasone PO on days 1, 8, and 15. Courses repeat every 28 days in the absence of disease
progression or unacceptable toxicity.

ARM D: Patients receive ixazomib citrate PO on days 1, 8, and 15, cyclophosphamide PO and
dexamethasone PO on days 1, 8, 15, and 22. Courses repeat every 28 days in the absence of
disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up every 6 or 12 months for 2
years.
