    • Pre-menopausal or menopausal women who fulfill the following conditions: They must have had a prior hysterectomy or be using 2 highly effective methods of contraception (i.e. with failure rates less than 1% per year when used consistently and correctly, e.g. established use of oral, injected or implanted hormonal methods of contraception; intrauterine device; condom with spermicidal foam or gel or film or cream or suppository), from the time of screening through the whole treatment phase of the study, and for at least 3 months following the completion of the last MP0274 administration
    • Men capable of fathering a child must agree to use barrier contraception (combination of a condom and spermicide) or limit activity to post-menopausal, surgically sterilized, or a contraception-practicing partner, during the treatment phase of the study and for at least 3 months following the completion of the last MP0274 infusion
    • Men capable of fathering a child must refrain from donating sperm for duration of study and for at least 4 months after last administration of MP0274
12. Female patients of child-bearing potential must have a negative serum pregnancy test result at screening

EXCLUSION CRITERIA

Patients will be ineligible if 1 or more of the following statements are applicable:

1. Hematological malignancies or other second primary malignancy, that is currently clinically significant or requires active intervention
2. Known brain metastases that are clinically unstable despite treatment with anticonvulsives and/or corticosteroids for at least 8 weeks prior to first scheduled dose of MP0274

   • Hormonal (e.g. tamoxifen) or aromatase inhibitor therapy within 8 weeks prior to first dose MP0274, except if no change in dose or schedule 8 weeks prior to first scheduled dose MP0274
   • Newly initiated therapy with bisphosphonate or receptor activator of nuclear kappa-B ligand (RANKL)-therapy within 8 weeks prior to first scheduled dose MP0274. If stable on dosing schedule for more than 8 weeks prior to first scheduled dose MP0274 these therapies are allowed. However, no new therapy with bisphosphonate/RANKL is allowed during the course of the study
