Conditions
Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (3)
Number of Participants With Dose-limiting Toxicities (DLTs)
DLTs were graded using Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) v5.0, with the exception of cytokine release syndrome (CRS) and tumor lysis syndrome (TLS), which graded using the criteria referenced in the publication by Lee et al, 2014 and the Cairo Bishop criteria referenced in the publication by Coiffier et al, 2008 respectively. A participant was non-DLT evaluable if they dropped out before completion of the DLT-evaluable period for reasons other than a DLT.
Day 1 to Week 4
Number of Participants Who Experienced a Treatment-emergent Adverse Event (TEAE)
The severity of TEAEs were graded using the CTCAE version 5.0 with the exception of CRS and TLS, which graded using the criteria referenced in the publication by Lee et al, 2014 and the Cairo Bishop criteria referenced in the publication by Coiffier et al, 2008. Any clinically significant changes in vital signs, electrocardiograms (ECGs) and clinical laboratory tests were recorded as TEAEs.
Up to approximately 3 years
Number of Participants Who Experienced a Treatment-related TEAE
The severity of treatment-related TEAEs were graded using the CTCAE version 5.0 with the exception of CRS and TLS, which graded using the criteria referenced in the publication by Lee et al, 2014 and the Cairo Bishop criteria referenced in the publication by Coiffier et al, 2008. Treatment-related TEAEs were those that were considered related to the study treatment by the investigator.

- Symptomatic peripheral sensory or motor neuropathy of grade ≥3
- History or presence of clinically relevant central nervous system (CNS) pathology as uncontrolled epilepsy or seizure disorder, paresis, aphasia, stroke, severe brain injuries, dementia, Parkinson's disease, cerebellar disease, organic brain syndrome, and psychosis

- Known or suspected HIV infection or subjects who are HIV seropositive
- Baseline ECG QTc \> 470 msec (applying Fridericia correction)
- Previously received an allogeneic stem cell transplant and the occurrence of 1 or more of the following: a) received the transplant within 6 months prior to study day 1; b) received immunosuppressive therapy within the last 3 months prior to study day 1; c) any active acute graft versus host disease (GvHD), grade 2 to 4, according to the Glucksberg criteria or active chronic GvHD requiring systemic treatment; d) any systemic therapy against GvHD within 2 weeks prior to start of investigational product treatment
- Autologous stem cell transplantation \< 90 days prior to study day 1
- Treatment with systemic immune modulators including, but not limited to, nontopical systemic corticosteroids (unless the dose is ≤ 10 mg/day prednisone or equivalent), cyclosporine, and tacrolimus within 2 weeks before study day 1
- Last anticancer treatment \< 2 weeks prior to study day 1
- +7 more criteria

- Qualified researchers may submit a request containing the research objectives, the Amgen product(s) and Amgen study/studies in scope, endpoints/outcomes of interest, statistical analysis plan, data requirements, publication plan, and qualifications of the researcher(s). In general, Amgen does not grant external requests for individual patient data for the purpose of re-evaluating safety and efficacy issues already addressed in the product labelling. Requests are reviewed by a committee of internal advisors, and if not approved, may be further arbitrated by a Data Sharing Independent Review Panel. Upon approval, information necessary to address the research question will be provided under the terms of a data sharing agreement. This may include anonymized individual patient data and/or available supporting documents, containing fragments of analysis code where provided in analysis specifications. Further details are available at the link below.
