Prior history of malignancies, other than MM, unless the subject has been free of the disease for ≥5 years. Subjects may be entered earlier than 5 years if they have received curative treatment for the following: * Basal cell carcinoma of the skin; * Squamous cell carcinoma of the skin; * Carcinoma in situ of the cervix; * Carcinoma in situ of the breast; Or if they have: o Incidental histologic finding of prostate cancer (T1a or T1b using the TNM \[tumor, nodes, metastasis\] clinical staging system) or non metastatic prostate cancer that is in complete remission or does not require treatment. 5. Previous therapy with POM and/or MRZ. 6. History of allergic reaction or hypersensitivity to thalidomide, lenalidomide, bortezomib, carfilzomib, boron, mannitol, or DEX. 7. Grade ≥3 rash during prior thalidomide or lenalidomide therapy. 8. Gastrointestinal disease that may significantly alter the absorption of POM. 9. History of the following: * Congestive heart failure of Class III or IV of the New York Heart Association (NYHA) classification; * Myocardial infarction within 12 months prior to starting study treatment; * Unstable or poorly controlled angina pectoris, including Prinzmetal variant angina pectoris. 10. Any of the following within 14 days prior to initiation of study treatment: * Plasmapheresis; * Major surgery (kyphoplasty is not considered major surgery); * Radiation therapy; * Anti-myeloma drug therapy. 11. Received any investigational agents within 28 days or 5 half-lives (whichever is longer) prior to initiation of study treatment. 12. Conditions requiring chronic steroid or immunosuppressive treatment (eg, rheumatoid arthritis, multiple sclerosis, or lupus), which likely need additional steroid or immunosuppressive treatments in addition to the study treatment. 13. Subjects may not receive corticosteroids (\>10 mg/day of prednisone or equivalent) within 3 weeks prior to enrollment (use of steroidal inhalation aerosol for asthma is permitted). 14.
