A Study of MT-0169 in Participants With Relapsed or Refractory Multiple Myeloma or non-Hodgkin Lymphoma

Overview

About this study

The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of MT-0169 and establish the MTD (maximum tolerated dose)/ RP2D (recommended phase 2 dose). Maximum tolerated dose means the highest dose of a study drug that can be given with acceptable side effects. Recommended phase 2 dose means that dose is judged to be the most optimal for future study in patients with your disease. The study will also examine how the body handles MT-0169. This will be done by looking at the pharmacokinetics of MT-0169after a single dose and after repeat doses in people with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma.  Pharmacokinetics (or PK) is the study of how your body absorbs, breaks down, and removes a drug.

It is planned that 39-60 patients with your disease condition (RR multiple myeloma) will take part in Part I, and approximately 54 patients will take part in Part 2 of this study. The study is being carried out at approximately 6-9 study clinics across North America and Europe.

Participation eligibility

Participant eligibility includes age, gender, type and stage of disease, and previous treatments or health concerns. Guidelines differ from study to study, and identify who can or cannot participate.
