• Adequate organ function defined as:
• Subjects affiliated with an appropriate social security system.
• A man who is sexually active with a pregnant woman or a woman of childbearing potential must agree to use a barrier method of birth control e.g., condom with spermicidal foam/gel/film/cream/suppository during the study and for at least 5 months after the last dose of treatment, even he has had a vasectomy.

Not a female of childbearing potential Or A FCBP who must have a negative serum or urine pregnancy test with a sensitivity of at least 25 mIU/mL within 10 - 14 days prior to and again within 24 hours prior to starting study medication and before each cycle of study treatment.

A FCBP must understand and agree to continue abstinence from heterosexual intercourse or to use 2 reliable effective methods of contraception (a very effective method and an effective additional method) simultaneously without interruption

• All patients must understand and accept to comply with the conditions of the lenalidomide pregnancy prevention plan

Exclusion Criteria:

• Subject has a diagnosis of primary amyloidosis, monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance, or smoldering multiple myeloma. Monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance is defined by presence of serum M-protein <3 g/dL; absence of lytic bone lesions, anemia, hypercalcemia, and renal insufficiency related to the M-protein; and (if determined) proportion of plasma cells in the bone marrow of 10% or less (Kyle 2003). Smoldering multiple myeloma is defined as asymptomatic multiple myeloma with absence of related organ or tissue impairment end organ damage (Kyle 2003, Kyle 2007).
• Subject has a diagnosis of Waldenström's disease, or other conditions in which IgM M-protein is present in the absence of a clonal plasma cell infiltration with lytic bone lesions.
• Subject has prior or current systemic therapy or SCT for multiple myeloma, with the exception of an emergency use of a short course (equivalent of dexamethasone 40 mg/day for a maximum 4 days) of corticosteroids before treatment.
• Subject has a history of malignancy (other than multiple myeloma) within 3 years before the date of randomization (exceptions are squamous and basal cell carcinomas of the skin and carcinoma in situ of the cervix, or malignancy that in the opinion of the investigator, with concurrence with the Coordinator Investigator, is considered cured with minimal risk of recurrence within 3 years).
• Subject has had radiation therapy within 7 days of randomization.
• Subject has had plasmapheresis within 7 days of randomization.
• Subject is exhibiting clinical signs of meningeal involvement of multiple myeloma.
• Subject known to be seropositive for history of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) or to have hepatitis A active infection.

• Known to have hepatitis B active or uncontrolled infection (positive HBsAg and/or HBV DNA)

  • Patient can be eligible if anti-HBc IgG positive (with or without positive anti-HBs) but HBsAg and HBV DNA are negative.

If anti-HBV therapy in relation with prior infection was started before initiation of IMP, the anti-HBV therapy and monitoring should continue throughout the study treatment period.

o • Patients with negative HBsAg and positive HBV DNA observed during screening period will be evaluated by a specialist for start of anti-viral treatment: study treatment could be proposed if HBV DNA becomes negative and all the other study criteria are still met.

• Known to have hepatitis C active infection (positive HCV RNA and negative anti-HCV) Patients with antiviral therapy for HCV started before initiation of IMP and positive HCV antibodies are eligible. The antiviral therapy for HCV should continue throughout the treatment period until seroconversion.

Patients with positive anti-HCV and undetectable HCV RNA without antiviral therapy for HCV are eligible.

• Subject has any clinically significant medical or psychiatric condition or disease (e.g., uncontrolled diabetes, acute diffuse infiltrative pulmonary disease) in the investigator's opinion, would expose the patient to excessive risk or may interfere with compliance or interpretation of the study results.
• Subject has active systemic infection and severe infections requiring treatment with a parenteral administration of antibiotics.
• Subject has clinically significant cardiac disease,
• Subject has known allergies, hypersensitivity, or intolerance to steroids, mannitol, pregelatinized starch, sodium stearyl fumarate, histidine (as base and hydrochloride salt), arginine hydrochloride, poloxamer 188, sucrose or any of the other components of study intervention that are not amenable to premedication with steroids and H2 blockers or would prohibit further treatment with these agents, monoclonal antibodies or human proteins, or their excipients.
• Known hypersensitivity, allergy to one of the study product (isatuximab, lenalidomide, bortezomib), dexamethasone or to one of the excipients
• Acute diffuse infiltrative pneumopathy, pericardial disease
• Subject has plasma cell leukemia.
• Subject has had major surgery within 2 weeks before randomization or has not fully recovered from surgery, Kyphoplasty or vertebroplasty is not considered major surgery.
• Subject has received an investigational drug (including investigational vaccines) within 14 days or 5 half-lives of the investigational drug prior to initiation of study intervention, whichever is longer, or used an invasive investigational medical device within 4 weeks before randomization or is currently enrolled in an interventional investigational study.

In case of very aggressive disease (i.e acute leukemia) delay could be shortened after agreement between sponsor and investigator, in absence of residual toxicities from previous therapy.

• Refusal to consent or protected by legal regime (under judicial protection, guardianship, trusteeship)
• Subject has contraindications to required prophylaxis for deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism
• Incidence of gastrointestinal disease that may significantly alter the absorption of oral drugs.
