    • Creatinine clearance (CrCl) of >= 30 mL/min, as measured by a 24-hour urine collection or as estimated by the Cockcroft and Gault formula. The serum creatinine value used in the calculation must have been obtained within 35 days prior to registration.
    • For patients with a creatinine clearance within the range of 30-45 mL/min, stability (i.e., not deteriorating) must be demonstrated over a period of 8 weeks prior to enrollment in the study
• Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) by echocardiogram >= 40% within 35 days prior to initiating study treatment

• Female participants of childbearing potential (FOCBP) must agree to use highly-effective method(s) of contraception during the study and for 3 months after the last dose of study drug. FOCBP are those who have not been surgically sterilized or have not been free from menses for > 1 year without an alternative medical cause

Exclusion Criteria:

• Any known allergies or hypersensitivity to isatuximab or other monoclonal antibody therapies and required premedications
• Known history of allergy to Captisol (a cyclodextrin derivative used to solubilize carfilzomib)
• Hypersensitivity to any of the components of study therapy that is not amenable to premedication with steroids and H2 blockers
• Participant has received prior chemotherapy, targeted small molecule therapy, or radiation therapy within 2 weeks or 5 pharmacokinetic half-lives of the treatment, whichever is longer, of the first dose of study medication. Wash-out period of prior anti-CD38 therapy (e.g. Daratumumab) is 6 months before first dose of study medication.
  • Exception: Emergency use of a short course of corticosteroids (equivalent of dexamethasone 40 mg per day for a maximum of 4 days) before treatment is not a barrier to eligibility
• Participant has undergone autologous stem cell transplant within 90 days of the first dose of study medication
• Ongoing adverse events related to a previously administered anti-myeloma therapy (including radiation therapy) >= grade 1
  • Exception: Potential participants with =< grade 2 neuropathy may, at the discretion of the investigator, qualify for the study
• Active autoimmune disease, except vitiligo or hypothyroidism
• Active and ongoing steroid use, except for non-systemically absorbed treatments (such as inhaled or topical steroid therapy for asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease [COPD], allergic rhinitis, or dermatologic conditions) and the emergency use of corticosteroids outlined above

Subjects with resolved infection (i.e., subjects who are HBsAg negative but positive for antibodies to hepatitis B core antigen [anti-HBc] and/or antibodies to hepatitis B surface antigen [anti-HBs]) must be screened using real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) measurement of hepatitis B virus deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) levels. Those who are PCR positive will be excluded. Exception: Subjects with serologic findings suggestive of HBV vaccination (anti-HBs positivity as the only serologic marker) AND a known history of prior HBV vaccination, do not need to be tested for HBV DNA by PCR
