Study Overview

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate an investigational drug called tabalumab in participants with Multiple Myeloma (MM) who have tried at least one other therapy in the past. Tabalumab will be given in combination with standard doses of two other drugs that are often used to treat MM. Study doctors will collect information about the effectiveness and side effects of this therapy.

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Progression Free Survival (PFS)

Time Frame: Baseline up to Objective Disease Progression or Death From Any Cause (assessed up to 9 months)

PFS is defined as the time from date of first dose to the first observation of disease progression or death due to any cause. If a participant does not have a complete baseline disease assessment, then the PFS time is censored at the enrollment date, regardless of whether or not objectively determined disease progression (Increase of \> 25% from lowest response in serum M component, urine M component, bone marrow plasma cell percentage, development of bone lesions) or death has been observed for the participant. If a participant is not known to have died or have objective progression as of the data inclusion cutoff date for the analysis, the PFS time is censored at the last complete objective progression-free disease assessment date.

  • Overall Survival(Baseline to Death From Any Cause (assessed up to 19 months))
  • Number of Participants With >30% Reduction in Brief Pain Inventory (BPI) - Worst Pain Score(Baseline through End of Treatment (19 months))
