Phase 1/2 Dose Escalation and Efficacy Study of Anti-CD38 Monoclonal Antibody in Patients With Selected CD38+ Hematological Malignancies

Inclusion criteria:

Phase 1:

* For dose escalation cohorts, participants with confirmed selected CD38+ hematological malignancies as specified below who had progressed on after standard therapy or for whom there was no effective standard therapy (refractory/relapsed participants). B-cell Non-Hodgkin-lymphoma/leukemia (NHL) participants with at least 1 measurable lesion. Multiple myeloma (MM) participants with measurable M-protein serum and/or 24-hour urine. Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) participants, all types except M3 based on French-American-British (FAB) classification. Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (B-cell ALL) participants. Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) participants.
* For expansion cohorts, participants with relapsed/refractory MM with measurable M-protein (serum M-protein of \>0.5 g/dL and/or urine M-protein of \>200 mg (24-hr urine)) or elevated serum free light chains (FLC) \>10 mg/dL with abnormal FLC ratio) who had progressed on or after standard therapy that included an Immunomodulatory drug (IMiD) and a proteasome inhibitor and who met the protocol defined criteria for standard risk or high risk.

Phase 2:

* Participants had a known diagnosis of multiple myeloma with evidence of measurable disease, and have evidence of disease progression based on International Myeloma Working Group (IMWG) criteria: Serum M-protein ≥1 g/dL, or urine M-protein \>=200 mg/24 hours or in the absence of measurable m-protein, serum FLC \>=10 mg/dL, and abnormal serum immunoglobulin kappa lambda FLC ratio (\<0.26 or \>1.65).
* Participants who received at least three prior lines of therapy for MM and had treatment with an IMiD (for \>=2 cycles or \>=2 months of treatment) and a proteasome inhibitor (PI) (for \>=2 cycles or \>=2 months of treatment) OR participants whose disease was double refractory to an IMiD and a PI. For participants who had received more than 1 type of IMiD and PI, their disease must be refractory to the most recent one.
* Participants who had achieved a minimal response or better to at least one prior line of therapy.
* Participants who had received an alkylating agent (\>=2 cycles or \>=2 months) either alone or in combination with other MM treatments.
* Stage 2 only: Participants who had evidence of disease progression on or after the most recent prior regimen based on IMWG criteria.

Exclusion criteria:

Phase 1:

* Karnofsky performance status \<60
* Poor bone marrow reserve
* Poor organ function
* Known intolerance to infused protein products, sucrose, histidine, polysorbate 80 or known hypersensitivity to any of the components of the study therapy that was not amenable to pre-medication with steroids and H2 blockers
* Any serious active disease (including clinically significant infection that was chronic, recurrent, or active) or co-morbid condition, which, in the opinion of the investigator, interfered with the safety, the compliance with the study or with the interpretation of the results
* Any severe underlying medical conditions including presence of laboratory abnormalities, which could impair the ability to participate in the study or the interpretation of its results

Phase 2:

* Participants with multiple myeloma immunoglobulin M (IgM) subtype
* Previous treatment with any anti-CD38 therapy
* Participants with concurrent plasma cell leukemia
* Participants with known or suspected amyloidosis
* Karnofsky performance status \<60 (stage 1)/Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) Performance status \>2 (stage 2).
* Poor bone marrow reserve
* Poor organ function
* Known intolerance to infused protein products, sucrose, histidine, polysorbate 80 or known hypersensitivity to any of the components of the study therapy that was not amenable to pre-medication with steroids and H2 blockers
* Any serious active disease (including clinically significant infection that was chronic, recurrent, or active) or co-morbid condition, which, in the opinion of the investigator, interfered with the safety, the compliance with the study or with the interpretation of the results
* Any severe underlying medical conditions including presence of laboratory abnormalities, which impaired the ability to participate in the study or the interpretation of its results
