Study summary

The primary purpose of the phase 1 part of the study is to evaluate safety and tolerability of AMG 701 monotherapy to identify the RP2D for AMG 701 monotherapy followed by a dose-confirmation part to gather further safety data for AMG 701 monotherapy at the RP2D in adult subjects with relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM). In addition, this study will include a sequential dose exploration part to identify the RP2D of AMG 701 in combination with pomalidomide, with and without dexamethasone (AMG 701-P+/-d). Phase 2 will consist of the dose-expansion part to gain further efficacy and safety experience with AMG 701 monotherapy in adult subjects with RRMM.

      • Relapsed after > or = 3 lines of prior therapy that must include all approved and available therapies deemed eligible by the investigator, inclusing at a minimum of a proteasome inhibitor (PI), an immunomodulatory drug (IMiD), and, where approved and available, a CD38-directed cytolytic antibody in combination in the same line or separate lines of treatment OR refractory to PI, IMiD, and CD38- directed cytolytic antibody,

  • Male subjects with a female partner of childbearing potential and female subjects of childbearing potential who are unwilling to use 2 methods of contraception (1 of which must be highly effective during the study and for an additional 75 days (females) and 135 days (males) after receiving the last dose of AMG 701, or 28 days after the last dose pomalidomide (males and females) or dexamethasone (females), whichever occurs later.
  • Females who are lactating/breastfeeding or who plan to breastfeed while on study through 75 days after receiving the last dose of AMG 701, or 28 days after the last dose pomalidomide or dexamethasone, whichever occurs later.
  • Females planning to become pregnant while on study through 75 days after receiving the last dose of AMG 701 or 28 days after the last dose pomalidomide or dexamethasone, whichever occurs later.
  • Male subjects with a pregnant partner who are unwilling to practice abstinence or use a latex or synthetic condom (even if they have had a vasectomy with medical confirmation of surgical success) during treatment (including during dose interruptions) and for an additional 135 days after the last dose of AMG 701, or 28 days after the last dose pomalidomide, whichever occurs later.
