• Previous malignancy, except for non-melanomatous skin carcinomas, in situ carcinomas or malignancies with low risk of recurrence.
• Any severe or uncontrolled systemic conditions (e.g. systemic infection) or current unstable or uncompensated respiratory or cardiac conditions which makes it undesirable for the patient to participate in the study or which could jeopardize compliance with the protocol

Participant Group / Arm

Intervention / Treatment

Experimental: Treatment; Patients will be enrolled into 3 groups which will run sequentially. Groups A and B will receive AT7519M only, whereas Group C will receive AT7519M in combination with Bortezomib.

Drug: AT7519M; Part A: Nine patients will receive AT7519M as an intravenous infusion on days 1, 4, 8 and 11 of a three week cycle. The starting dose of AT7519M will be 21mg/m^2/dose and will be increased to 27mg/m^2/dose during subsequent cycles in the absence of AT7519M-related toxicities. Part B: Amendment clarified there will be no further exploration of AT7519M as a monotherapy. Part C: Amendment modified dose escalation to a conventional 3 + 3 design with a maximum total of 14 patients will be treated at the maximum tolerated dose.; Drug: Bortezomib; Part C will treat between 3-26 patients with a combination of bortezomib and AT7519M in a dose escalation design. The starting doses for the dose escalation are bortezomib 1 mg/m2 and AT7519M 14 mg/m2.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure	Measure Description	Time Frame
To evaluate the clinical efficacy of AT7519M alone or in combination with bortezomib	Efficacy will be assessed using the International Multiple Myeloma Working Group (IMWG) Response Criteria	Subjects with be followed until disease progression (an average of 4 cycles per subject. i.e an average of 84 days)

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure	Measure Description	Time Frame
Assess the type, incidence and severity of clinically significant treatment emergent adverse events as assessed by National Cancer Institute - Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI-CTCAE) V 4.03		Subjects with be followed until disease progression (an average of 4 cycles per subject, i.e an average of approximately 84 days)
To define the pharmacokinetic profile of AT7519M and bortezomib when administered alone or in combination with bortezomib	The pharmacokinetic evaluation will include the calculation of plasma clearance and elimination phase half-life for AT7519M and bortezomib	2 cycles (i.e an average of 42 days)
To identify the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of AT7519M in combination with bortezomib	The MTD will be based on the incidence of dose limiting toxicities	Subjects with be followed until disease progression (an average of 4 cycles per subject, i.e an average of approximately 84 days)
