Study summary

The purpose of this study is to collect long-term follow-up data on delayed adverse events after administration of ciltacabtagene autoleucel (cilta-cel), and to characterize and understand the long-term safety profile of cilta-cel.

Read the detailed description

Cilta-cel (JNJ-68284528/LCAR-B38M chimeric antigen receptor T-cells [CAR-T]) is an autologous CAR-T therapy that targets B-cell maturation antigen (BCMA), a molecule expressed on the surface of mature B lymphocytes and malignant plasma cells. There will be no treatment administered during the study and the data obtained from this study will help to assess whether there will be long-term cilta-cel-related toxicities. The study will consist of 2 phases: within the first 5 years after receiving the last dose of cilta-cel and Year 6 to 15 years after last dose of cilta-cel. Safety evaluations will include a review of adverse events, laboratory test results, and physical examination findings (including neurological examination). The duration of the study is up to 15 years after last dose of cilta-cel and participants will be followed at least once per year.

Eligibility criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Participants who have received at least one dose of cilta-cel in a Company-sponsored clinical study
  • Participants who have provided for this study
Terms in these criteria, in plain language(1)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

Informed consent

Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.

You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.

Study arms

  • Experimental
    Cilta-cel

    Participants who had previously received treatment with cilta-cel in a Company-sponsored clinical study (example, NCT04923893, NCT03758417, NCT04181827, NCT05347485, NCT04133636, and NCT03548207) in the global development program will be enrolled into this study once the individual's participation in the particular interventional study has ended or a study has been terminated. Participants will not receive any treatment in this study and will be followed-up at least once per year on delayed adverse events for up to 15 years after receiving the last dose of cilta-cel.

    Drug: Cilta-cel

Interventions

  • Participants who had received cilta-cel in previous studies will be followed up in this study. No additional study treatment will be administered to participants in this study.

2 registry updates since Sep 25, 2026
ElapsedEstimatedEstimated, not yet reachedSimilar studies: half by the dot; the band is the middle halfHalf of similar studies reached it by the dot; the band is the middle half, from a quarter to three quarters

Started Mar 2022 (actual). Primary completion is estimated for Jul 2037, 184 months after the start.

Of 28 phase 4 interventional studies under Multiple Myeloma, half reached primary completion within 42 months of starting (the median), counting those still running; a quarter within 30 and three quarters within 57. This study's planned 184 months is above that.

How these figures are worked out, and which studies are left out of them.

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
