Creatinine clearance can be calculated using the Cockcroft-Gault formula; or for subjects with over- or underweight, creatinine clearance may be measured from a 24-hours urine collection using the formula h) corrected serum calcium ≤14 mg/dL (≤3.5 mM/L); or free ionized calcium ≤6.5 mg/dL (≤1.6 mM/L) 6. Contraceptive use by men or women should be consistent with local regulations regarding the use of contraceptive methods for subjects participating in clinical studies. Women of childbearing potential must commit to either abstain continuously from heterosexual sexual intercourse or to use 2 methods of reliable birth control simultaneously. This includes one highly effective form of contraception (tubal ligation, intrauterine device [IUD], hormonal [progesterone-only birth control pills or injections or partner's vasectomy) and one additional effective contraceptive method (male latex or synthetic condom, diaphragm, or cervical cap). Contraception must begin 4 weeks prior to dosing and must continue for 3 months after the last dose of daratumumab. Reliable contraception is indicated even where there has been a history of infertility, unless due to hysterectomy or bilateral oophorectomy. 7. A man who is sexually active with a woman of childbearing potential must agree to use a latex or synthetic condom, even if he had a successful vasectomy. All men must also not donate sperm during the study, for 4 weeks after the last dose of lenalidomide, and for 3 months after the last dose of daratumumab. 8.

For requirements during the Treatment Phase, please see Section 4.3. 9. Each subject (or their legally acceptable representative) must sign an informed consent form (ICF) indicating that he or she understands the purpose of and procedures required for the study and are willing to participate in the study. Subject must be willing and able to adhere to the prohibitions and restrictions specified in this protocol, as referenced in the ICF.
