Actual date on which the first participant was enrolled.

This is a first in human phase 1 multicenter open label study to evaluate the safety and tolerability of AMG 224 in subjects with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma. The study will be conducted in 2 parts. Part 1 is the dose-exploration and part 2 is the dose-expansion. Study medication will be administered once every 3 weeks by intravenous (IV) infusion.

9 intervention groups are designated in this study

This study does not include a placebo group 

Treatment Groups

Group I

Experimental
Participants who had no prior treatment with CD38-targeting antibody were administered AMG 224 Dose H (the MTD based on the dose exploration phase) as an IV infusion Q3W on Day 1 of each cycle, where each cycle is 3 weeks.

Group II

Experimental
Participants who had prior treatment with CD38-targeting antibody were administered AMG 224 Dose H (the maximum tolerated dose \[MTD\] based on the dose exploration phase) as an IV infusion Q3W on Day 1 of each cycle, where each cycle is 3 weeks.

Group III

Experimental
Participants were administered AMG 224 Dose A as an intravenous (IV) infusion once every 3 weeks (Q3W) on Day 1 of each cycle, where each cycle is 3 weeks.

Group IV

Experimental
Participants were administered AMG 224 Dose B as an IV infusion Q3W on Day 1 of each cycle, where each cycle is 3 weeks.

Group 5

Experimental
Participants were administered AMG 224 Dose C as an IV infusion Q3W on Day 1 of each cycle, where each cycle is 3 weeks.

Group 6

Experimental
Participants were administered AMG 224 Dose D as an IV infusion Q3W on Day 1 of each cycle, where each cycle is 3 weeks.

Group 7

Experimental
Participants were administered AMG 224 Dose E as an IV infusion Q3W on Day 1 of each cycle, where each cycle is 3 weeks.

Group 8

Experimental
Participants were administered AMG 224 Dose F as an IV infusion Q3W on Day 1 of each cycle, where each cycle is 3 weeks.

Group 9
