Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

3. Subject has active myeloma despite prior therapy with a proteasome inhibitor, an immunomodulatory agent and an anti-CD38 antibody.

   Note: Subject must not be a candidate for regimens known to provide clinical benefit.

4. Subject has an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status (ECOG PS) score of 0 or 1.
5. Subject is > 18 years of age.
