Venetoclax + Carfilzomib + Dexamethasone

Part 1: Evaluate the safety and pharmacokinetic profiles while providing information to determine the appropriate doses of venetoclax and carfilzomib (VenKd) to be used in the VenKd combination in approximately 18 participants. The dose levels are Venetoclax 400 mg or 800 mg; Carfilzomib 20/27 mg/m2, 20/70 mg/m2, and/or 20/56 mg/m2; Dexamethasone 40 mg

Part 2: Further evaluate the safety and efficacy profile of the VenKd combination selected after completion of Part 1 in approximately 22 additional participants. Participants may discontinue Kd but may continue receiving venetoclax once daily (QD) as monotherapy.

Part 3: Further evaluation of the efficacy of the VenKd combination after completion of Part 1 and Part 2 in 7 additional participants.

Part 4, An additional 65 participants t(11;14) positive will receive varying doses of the VenKd combination or carfilzomib and dexamethasone
