• Understand and voluntarily sign an informed consent prior to any study related assessments/procedures are conducted.
• Able to adhere to the study visit schedule and other protocol requirements.
• Subjects must have documented diagnosis of multiple myeloma and have measurable disease (serum M-protein ≥ 0.5 g/dL or urine M-protein ≥ 200 mg/24 hours). In case of oligosecretory myeloma: involved FLC level ≥ 10 mg/dl, provided sFLC ratio is abnormal.
• Subjects must have had at least two prior anti-myeloma regimens (incl. bortezomib and lenalidomide) and must have been progressed under the last prior treatment. Induction therapy followed by ASCT and consolidation/ maintenance will be considered as one regimen.

• Males must agree: to use a condom during any sexual contact or practice complete abstinence from heterosexual contact with a pregnant female and a FCBP while participating in the study, during dose interruptions and for 28 days following discontinuation from this study, even if he has undergone a successful vasectomy, to refrain from donating semen or sperm while on Pomalidomide and for 28 days after discontinuation from this study treatment.
• All subjects must agree to refrain from donating blood while on study drug and for 28 days after discontinuation from this study treatment.
• All subjects must agree not to share medication.

Exclusion criteria

• -Any of the following laboratory abnormalities: Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) < 1,000/μL.
• Subject with platelet count 30,000/µL are not eligible regardless of the percentage of plasma cells in the bone marrow. For subject with platelet count > 30,000/µL and < 75,000/µL, percentage of plasma cells in bone marrow should be 50%.
• Corrected serum calcium > 14 mg/dL (> 3.5 mmol/L).
• Hemoglobin < 8 g/dL (< 4.9 mmol/L; prior RBC transfusion or recombinant human erythropoietin use is permitted).
• Serum SGOT/AST or SGPT/ALT > 3.0 x upper limit of normal (ULN) except due to multiple myeloma.
• Serum total bilirubin > 2.0 mg/dL (34.2 μmol/L); or > 3.0 x ULN for subjects with hereditary benign hyperbilirubinemia.
• GFR < 30 ml/min or patient requiring hemodialysis
• Prior history of malignancies, other than MM, unless the subject has been free of the disease for ≥ 5 years. Exceptions include the following:
• Basal or squamous cell carcinoma of the skin
• Carcinoma in situ of the cervix or breast
• Incidental histological finding of prostate cancer (TNM stage of T1a or T1b).
• Previous therapy with Pomalidomide.
• Hypersensitivity to thalidomide, lenalidomide, or Dexamethasone (this includes ≥ Grade 3 rash during prior thalidomide or lenalidomide therapy).
• Peripheral neuropathy ≥ Grade 2.

• Unstable or poorly controlled angina pectoris, including Prinzmetal variant angina pectoris.
• Subjects who received any of the following within the last 14 days of initiation of study treatment:
• Major surgery (kyphoplasty is not considered major surgery)
• Use of any anti-myeloma drug therapy.
• Use of any investigational agents within 28 days or five half-lives (whichever is longer) of treatment.
• Incidence of gastrointestinal disease that may significantly alter the absorption of Pomalidomide.
• Subjects unable or unwilling to undergo antithrombotic prophylactic treatment.
• Any serious medical condition, laboratory abnormality, or psychiatric illness that would prevent the subjects from signing the informed consent form.
