Brief Summary

This is an open-label, multicenter clinical trial designed to evaluate the safety and potential efficacy of venetoclax and ABBV-838 combination therapy with dexamethasone in participants with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma (MM) who have received 2 or more prior lines of therapy for multiple myeloma (MM). The study will consist of 2 arms: Arm A and Arm B (if applicable). Each arm will have a dose escalation and dose expansion portion.

Detailed Description

The study will consist of 2 arms: Arm A and Arm B (if applicable). Arm A dose escalation will investigate up to 3 doses of ABBV-838 at 3-week dosing intervals (Q3W) in combination with venetoclax and dexamethasone. Arm A dose expansion portion will investigate the ABBV-838 Q3W dosing interval with venetoclax and dexamethasone at the recommended phase two dose (RPTD) combination defined from the Dose Escalation portion.

Based on data from the ongoing ABBV-838 monotherapy study (Study M14-467) Arm B dose escalation may be conducted, if deemed necessary. If conducted, Arm B dose excalation will investigate up to 3 doses of ABBV-838 at either weekly (Q1W) or bi-weekly (Q2W) dosing intervals in combination with venetoclax and dexamethasone. Arm B dose expansion portion will investigate either the ABBV-838 Q1W or Q2W dosing interval in combination with venetoclax and dexamethasone at the RPTD combination defined from the Dose Escalation portion.

The dose expansion portion will investigate either the ABBV-838 weekly (Q1W) or bi-weekly (Q2W) dosing interval in combination with venetoclax and dexamethasone at the RPTD combination defined from the Dose Escalation portion.

Terminal phase elimination rate constant (β) for ABBV-838Cycle 1 Day 1
Time to Cmax (Tmax) of venetoclaxApproximately 43 or 57 days (Treatment Arm A and Treatment Arm B, respectively)
Objective Response Rate (ORR)Cycle 2 Day 1 and Day 1 of every cycle thereafter for up to 2 years following the first dose of the last subject enrolled

The Objective Response Rate (ORR) is defined as the proportion of subjects with a response (Stringent Complete Response \[sCR\], Complete Response \[CR\], Very Good Partial Response \[VGPR\] or Partial Response \[PR\]) based on the International Myeloma Working Group (IMWG) criteria.

Terminal elimination half-life (t1/2) for ABBV-838Cycle 1 Day 1
