This open-label study will assess anti-tumor activity and safety of belinostat in
combination with bortezomib (Velcade®) in multiple myeloma patients refractory to or
relapsed from at least one prior bortezomib-containing regimen. Subjects will be
administered both PXD101 and bortezomib on the same days: i.e. days 1, 4, 8, and 11 of a
3-week cycle, for up to 8 cycles.

regimen.
- Progressive disease.
- Age >= 18 years.
- Karnofsky performance status >= 60%
- Acceptable liver function:
- Bilirubin =< 1.5 x ULN (upper limit of normal)

age / potential.
- Pregnant or breast-feeding women.
- Known HIV positivity.
- Prior treatment with belinostat (PXD101), or any other HDAC (histone deacetylase)
inhibitor.
