Lab values

• Clinical active infectious hepatitis type A, B, C or HIV Acute active infection requiring antibiotics or infiltrative pulmonary disease Myocardial infarction or unstable angina ≤ 4 months or other clinically significant heart disease Peripheral neuropathy or neuropathic pain grade 2 or higher, as defined by National Cancer Institute Common Toxicity Criteria (NCI CTC) 4.0 Known history of allergy to Captisol ® (a cyclodextrin derivative used to solubilize carfilzomib) Contraindication to any of the required drugs or supportive treatments Invasive malignancy within the past 3 years Serious medical condition, laboratory abnormality or psychiatric illness that prevented the subject from the enrolment or place the subject at unacceptable risk.

Other
