   3. Serum free light-chain (FLC) assay: involved FLC level ≥10 mg/dL (≥100 mg/L) and an abnormal serum FLC ratio (<0.26 or >1.65).

5. Newly diagnosed and not considered candidate for high-dose chemotherapy with autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT) due to any of the following:

   1. ≥70 years of age, OR
   2. Age 18 to 69 years with presence of comorbid condition(s) likely to have a negative impact on tolerability of high-dose chemotherapy with ASCT, (or for whom national guidelines do not permit transplant due to a cut-off age below 70 years), OR
   3. Who refuse high-dose chemotherapy with ASCT as an initial treatment.

6. Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0 to 2.

7. Adequate organ system function as defined by the laboratory assessments.

8. Male participants:

   • Contraceptive use by men should be consistent with local regulations regarding the methods of contraception for those participating in clinical studies.
   • Male participants are eligible to participate if they agree to the following during the Treatment Period and for at least 6 months after the last dose of study intervention to allow for clearance of any altered sperm:
   • Refrain from donating fresh unwashed semen

   PLUS either:

   • Be abstinent from heterosexual intercourse as their preferred and usual lifestyle (abstinent on a long term and persistent basis) and agree to remain abstinent.

   OR

   • Must agree to use contraception/barrier as detailed below
   • Agree to use a male condom, even if they have undergone a successful vasectomy, and female partner to use an additional highly effective contraceptive method with a failure rate of <1% per year when having sexual intercourse with a woman of childbearing potential (WOCBP) who is not currently pregnant. Male participants should also use a condom when having sexual intercourse with pregnant females.

9. Female participants

   • Contraceptive use by women should be consistent with local regulations regarding the methods of contraception for those participating in clinical studies.
   • A female participant is eligible to participate if she is not pregnant or breastfeeding, and at least 1 of the following conditions applies:
   • Is not a WOCBP OR
   • Is a WOCBP and using a contraceptive method that is highly effective (with a failure rate of <1% per year), preferably with low user dependency during the Treatment Period and for 4 months after the last dose of study intervention and agrees not to donate eggs (ova, oocytes) for the purpose of reproduction during this period. The investigator should evaluate the effectiveness of the contraceptive method in relationship to the first dose of study intervention.
   • A WOCBP must have 2 negative highly sensitive serum pregnancy tests before starting treatment, the first may be performed within 14 days from C1D1, the second within 24 hours before the first dose of study intervention.
   • Should pregnancy occur in a female on treatment or the female partner of a male on treatment, treatment must be stopped, and it is advised to seek advice from a physician specialized or experienced in teratology.

Exclusion criteria

5. Any serious and/or unstable pre-existing medical, psychiatric disorder or other conditions (including lab abnormalities) that could interfere with participant's safety, obtaining informed consent, or compliance with study procedures.
