Measurable disease at screening as defined by any of the following: 1) Serum M-protein level ≥0.5 g/dL (central laboratory); or 2) Urine M-protein level ≥200 mg/24 hours (central laboratory); or 3) Light chain multiple myeloma without measurable M-protein in the serum or the urine: serum immunoglobulin free light chain ≥10 mg/dL (central laboratory), and abnormal serum immunoglobulin kappa lambda free light chain ratio (0.22 to 1.52 [central laboratory]). 3. Relapsed or refractory disease as defined below: a. Relapsed disease is defined as an initial response to prior treatment, followed by confirmed progressive disease by IMWG criteria >60 days after cessation of treatment. b. Refractory disease is defined as <25% reduction in M-protein or confirmed progressive disease by IMWG criteria during previous treatment or ≤60 days after cessation of treatment. 4. Received at least 1 prior line of antimyeloma therapy including a PI and lenalidomide. Participants who have received only 1 prior line of antimyeloma therapy must be considered lenalidomide-refractory (ie, have demonstrated progressive disease by IMWG criteria on or within 60 days of completion of lenalidomide-containing regimen). Participants who have received ≥2 prior lines of antimyeloma therapy must be considered lenalidomide exposed. 5. Documented evidence of progressive disease based on investigator’s determination of response by the IMWG criteria on or after their last regimen. 6. Have an ECOG performance status score of 0, 1, or 2 at screening and immediately prior to the start of administration of study treatment. 7. Have clinical laboratory values as defined in the protocol 8. Human immunodeficiency virus-positive participants are eligible if they meet all of the following: - No detectable viral load (ie, <50 copies/mL) at screening - CD4+ count >300 cells/mm3 at screening - No acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS)-defining opportunistic infection within 6 months of screening - Receiving highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART). Any changes in HAART due to resistance/progression should occur at least 3 months prior to screening. A change in HAART due to toxicity is allowed up to 4 weeks prior to screening. 9. A female participant of childbearing potential must have a negative highly sensitive urine or serum (β human chorionic gonadotropin [β hCG]) pregnancy test at screening, within 24 hours prior to the start of study treatment, and must agree to further urine or serum pregnancy tests during the study and within 100 days after receiving the last dose of study treatment. 10. A female participant must be: a. Not of childbearing potential, or b. Of childbearing potential and 1) Practicing true abstinence; or 2) Have a sole partner who is bilaterally vasectomized; or 3) Practicing 2 effective methods of contraception (at least 1 highly‑effective, method of contraception). For participants who are of childbearing potential, see protocol Section 6.12.3 for details regarding concomitant use of estrogen containing products and pomalidomide 11. A female participant must agree not to donate eggs (ova, oocytes) or freeze for future use for the purposes of assisted reproduction during the study and for at least 100 days after the last dose of study treatment. Female participants should consider preservation of eggs prior to study treatment as anti-cancer treatments may impair fertility. 12. A male participant must wear a condom (with spermicidal foam/gel/film/cream/suppository) when engaging in any activity that allows for passage of ejaculate to another person during the study and for a minimum of 100 days after receiving the last dose of study treatment. Male participants should consider preservation of sperm prior to study treatment as anti-cancer treatments may impair fertility. If a female partner is of childbearing potential, she must also be practicing a highly effective method of contraception. 13. A male participant must agree not to donate sperm for the purpose of reproduction during the study and for a minimum of 100 days after receiving the last dose of study treatment. 14. Must be willing and able to adhere to the lifestyle restrictions specified in this protocol including to not donate blood or blood components during the study and for 100 days after the last dose of study drug), including adherence to the global PPP or local PPP/REMS program for pomalidomide. 15. Must sign an ICF (or their legally acceptable representative must sign) indicating that the participant understands the purpose of, and procedures required for, the study and is willing to participate in the study
