Assessment of AMG 420 in Subjects With Relapsed and/or Refractory Multiple Myeloma

A Phase 1b Multicenter, Open-label, Expansion Study to Assess the Safety and Efficacy of AMG 420 as Monotherapy in Subjects With Relapsed and/or Refractory Multiple Myeloma

To confirm the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) from the BI 836909 trial of 400 mcg/d, given as 28-day continuous intravenous infusion in patients with relapsed and/or refractory multiple myeloma, to test the 600 mcg/d dose, given as a 28-day continuous iV infusion.

Cohort 1 will consist of 10 subjects dosed at 400 mcg/d. Cohort 2 will consist of 10 subjects dosed at 600 mcg/d. All doses will be given as a 28-day continuous IV infusion, followed by a 2 week treatment-free interval, until subject experiences disease progression as per International Myeloma Working Group (IMWG) criteria.

6. Known history of amyloidosis
7. Current or known history of autoimmune diseases requiring systemic treatment in past 5 years except vitiligo, resolved childhood asthma/atopy, or subjects with history of hypothyroidism after completing treatment for autoimmune thyroid disease, stable on hormone replacement therapy.

9. Symptomatic peripheral sensory or motor neuropathy of grade ≥3
10. History or presence of clinically relevant central nervous system (CNS) pathology as uncontrolled epilepsy or seizure disorder, paresis, aphasia, stroke, severe brain injuries, dementia, Parkinson's disease, cerebellar disease, organic brain syndrome, and psychosis
11. Active hepatitis B and C based on the following results: a) Positive for HepBsAg; b) Negative HepBsAg and positive for hepatitis B core antibody; c) Positive Hepatitis C virus antibody (HepCAb)
12. Known or suspected HIV infection or subjects who are HIV seropositive
13. Baseline ECG QTc > 470 msec (applying Fridericia correction)
14. Previously received an allogeneic stem cell transplant and the occurrence of 1 or more of the following: a) received the transplant within 6 months prior to study day 1; b) received immunosuppressive therapy within the last 3 months prior to study day 1; c) any active acute graft versus host disease (GvHD), grade 2 to 4, according to the Glucksberg criteria or active chronic GvHD requiring systemic treatment; d) any systemic therapy against GvHD within 2 weeks prior to start of investigational product treatment
