E.4 | Principal exclusion criteria |
-Subject has a diagnosis of primary amyloidosis, monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance, or smoldering multiple myeloma. Monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance is defined by presence of serum M-protein <3 g/dL; absence of lytic bone lesions, anemia, hypercalcemia, and renal insufficiency related to the M-protein; and (if determined) proportion of plasma cells in the bone marrow of 10% or less. Smoldering multiple myeloma is defined as asymptomatic multiple myeloma with absence of related organ or tissue impairment end organ damage . -Subject has a diagnosis of Waldenström’s disease, or other conditions in which IgM M-protein is present in the absence of a clonal plasma cell infiltration with lytic bone lesions. -Subject has prior or current systemic therapy or SCT for multiple myeloma, with the exception of an emergency use of a short course (equivalent of dexamethasone 40 mg/day for a maximum 4 days) of corticosteroids before treatment. -Subject has a history of ongoing malignancy (other than multiple myeloma) within 3 years (date of diagnosis of the malignancy) before the date of study treatment (exceptions are malignancies considered cured with minimal risk of recurrence within 3 years, eventhough the patient receives treatment). -Subject has had radiation therapy/plasmapheresis within 7 days of study treatment -Subject is exhibiting clinical signs of meningeal involvement of multiple myeloma. -Subject known to be seropositive for history of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) or to have hepatitis A active infection. -Known to have hepatitis B active or uncontrolled infection/hepatitis C active infection -Subject has any clinically significant medical or psychiatric condition or disease in the investigator’s opinion, would expose the patient to excessive risk or may interfere with compliance or interpretation of the study results. -Subject has active systemic infection and severe infections requiring treatment with a parenteral administration of antibiotics. - Subject has clinically significant cardiac disease, including: omyocardial infarction within 6 months before study treatment, or an unstable or uncontrolled disease/condition related to or affecting cardiac function ouncontrolled cardiac arrhythmia (NCI CTCAE Version 5 Grade ≥2) or clinically significant ECG abnormalities or LVEF < 40 % -Subject has known allergies, hypersensitivity, or intolerance to steroids, mannitol, pregelatinized starch, sodium stearyl fumarate, histidine (as base and hydrochloride salt), arginine hydrochloride, poloxamer 188, sucrose or any of the other components of study intervention that are not amenable to premedication with steroids and H2 blockers or would prohibit further treatment with these agents, monoclonal antibodies or human proteins, or their excipients (refer to respective package inserts or Investigator's Brochure). -Known hypersensitivity, allergy to one of the study product (isatuximab, lenalidomide, bortezomib), dexamethasone, boron or to one of the excipients.

Subject has any condition for which, in the opinion of the investigator, participation would not be in the best interest of the subject (e.g., compromise the well-being) or that could prevent, limit, or confound the protocol- specified assessments. Subject is taking any prohibited medications -Subject has had major surgery within 2 weeks before study treatment or has not fully recovered from surgery, Kyphoplasty or vertebroplasty is not considered major surgery. -Subject has received an investigational drug (including investigational vaccines) within 14 days or 5 half-lives of the investigational drug prior to initiation of study intervention, whichever is longer, or used an invasive investigational medical device within 4 weeks before study treatment or is currently enrolled in an interventional investigational study.
