- Urine M-protein excretion >=200 mg/24 hours (>=0.2 gram [g]/24 hours), or

- Serum M-protein concentration >=0.5 grams per deciliter (g/dL) (>=5.0 gram per liter
[g/L]), or

- Serum free light chain (FLC) assay: involved FLC level >=10 milligrams per deciliter
(mg/dL) (>=100 milligram per liter [mg/L]) and an abnormal serum free light chain
ratio (<0.26 or >1.65).

- Not a candidate for high-dose chemotherapy with autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT)
due to presence of significant comorbid condition(s), such as cardiac, pulmonary or
other major organ dysfunction that are likely to have a negative impact on
tolerability of high dose chemotherapy with stem cell transplantation, as judged by
the investigator.

- Eastern cooperative oncology group (ECOG) status of 0-2

- Adequate organ system functions as defined by the laboratory assessments listed as
following: Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) >=1.5 x 10^9/L; Hemoglobin >=8.0 g/dL;
Platelets >=75 x 10^9/L; Total bilirubin <=1.5 x upper limit of normal (ULN);
(Isolated bilirubin >1.5 x ULN is acceptable if bilirubin is fractionated and direct
bilirubin is <35%); Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) <=2.5 x ULN; eGFR >=30
mL/minute/1.73 meter^2; Urine Dipstick for protein OR Albumin/creatinine ratio (from
spot urine)- Negative/trace (if >=1 plus only eligible if confirmed <=500 mg/gram (56
mg/millimoles [mmol]) by albumin/creatinine ratio (spot urine from first void); Left
Ventricular Ejection Fraction (LVEF) by echocardiogram (ECHO) of >=35% participants
with low LVEF (per institutional standards), consider referring to cardiology per
local standards of care.

- Sex and Contraception/Barrier Requirements (Female):

- 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 woman of childbearing potential (WOCBP) or Due to lenalidomide being a
thalidomide analogue with risk for embryofetal toxicity and prescribed under a
pregnancy prevention/controlled distribution program, and bortezomib having the
potential to cause fetal harm, WOCBP participants will be eligible if they commit to
either: abstain continuously from heterosexual sexual intercourse as their preferred
and usual lifestyle (abstinent on a long term and persistent basis) and agree to
remain abstinent OR to use birth control as follows: Two methods of reliable birth
control (one method that is highly effective and one additional effective (barrier)
method), beginning 4 weeks prior to initiating treatment with lenalidomide, during
therapy, during dose interruptions and continuing for 4 weeks following
discontinuation of lenalidomide treatment. Thereafter, WOCBP participants must use one
method of reliable birth control that is highly effective for a further 3 months
following discontinuation of belantamab mafodotin, or a further 6 months following
discontinuation of bortezomib, whichever is longer. WOCBP must also agree not to
donate eggs (ova, oocytes) for the purpose of reproduction during treatment, during
dose interruptions and for 28-days following the last dose of lenalidomide, 4 months
following discontinuation of belantamab mafodotin treatment or 7-months following the
last dose of bortezomib, whichever is longer. Two negative pregnancy tests must be
obtained prior to initiating therapy. The first test should be performed within 10-14
days and the second test within 24 hours prior to prescribing the start of
lenalidomide therapy.

The participant should not receive lenalidomide until the investigator has verified that
the results of these pregnancy tests are negative. The investigator should evaluate the
effectiveness of the contraceptive method in relationship to the first dose of study
intervention. The Investigator is responsible for review of medical history, menstrual
history, and recent sexual activity to decrease the risk for inclusion of a woman with an
early undetected pregnancy.

- Sex and Contraception/Barrier Requirements (Male):

- 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 from the
time of first dose of study treatment until 28-days after the last dose of
lenalidomide, 4-months after the last dose of bortezomib, or 6 months after the last
dose of belantamab mafodotin, whichever is longer, to allow for clearance of any
altered sperm: Refrain from donating sperm - 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 WOCBP. Male participants should also use a condom when having
sexual intercourse with pregnant females.

- Capable of giving signed informed consent.

Summary
Brief summary
This study will evaluate the safety, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics and clinical activity
of belantamab mafodotin in combination with Velcade (bortezomib), Revlimid (lenalidomide),
dexamethasone (VRd) and will determine recommended phase 3 dose (RP3D) in adult participants
with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma (NDMM). Participants will receive the combination of
bortezomib, lenalidomide and dexamethasone (VRd) on a 3-week cycle until cycle 8, followed by
the combination of lenalidomide and dexamethasone (Rd) on a 4-week cycle thereafter as per
dosing schedule. Participants will receive belantamab mafodotin on a schedule that is
dependent on the cohort to which they are assigned. Belantamab mafodotin will be administered
in combination with VRd every 3 weeks (Q3W), every 6 weeks (Q6W), or every 9 weeks (Q9W) to
Cycle 8, and then in combination with Rd every 4 weeks (Q4W), every 8 weeks (Q8W), or every
12 weeks (Q12W) thereafter. Participants will complete an End of Treatment (EOT) visit at the
point of study treatment discontinuation, followed by a Safety Follow-up visit 70 days after
EOT.
