- Serious treatment-emergent AEs occurred in 32 (30%) patients
- Few required additional supportive care
- Red blood cell transfusion (38%), platelet transfusion (13%), granulocyte colony stimulating factor (GCSF; 8%)

- Grade ≥ 3 anemia and
thrombocytopenia occurred more
frequently in non-responders
(32% and 24%, respectively) than
responders (3% and 6%,
respectively)
- Grade ≥ 3 neutropenia rates were
similar in non-responders (12%)
and responders (13%)
Infusion-Related Reactions (IRRs)
- IRRs occurred in 45 (42%) patients
- Predominantly grade 1 or 2
- Grade 3 occurred in 5 (5%) patients; no grade 4 IRRs were reported
- 37% patients experienced IRRs during the first infusion
- 6% patients had > 1 IRR
- Most common IRRs include:
- Nasal congestion (12%), Throat irritation (7%), Cough (6%), Dyspnea (6%), Chills (6%), Vomiting (6%)
- No patient discontinued daratumumab due to IRRs
- No immunogenicity was reported
Discontinuation Rates
- Discontinuations predominantly due to disease progression
- 82 (77%) due to progressive disease
- 3 (3%) withdrew consent due to symptoms related to disease progression
- 5 (5%) due to AEs not related to daratumumab therapy
