The purpose of this study is to evaluate three daratumumab dose schedules in participants with Smoldering Multiple Myeloma.
This is a randomized, open-label (identity of assigned treatment will be known to participants and study staff), 3-arm (3 treatment groups), multicenter study of daratumumab in participants diagnosed with intermediate or high-risk Smoldering Multiple Myeloma (SMM \[ie, early disease without any symptoms\]). Participants will be randomized (assigned by chance) to one of 3 treatment groups (arm A \[long intense\], arm B \[intermediate\] and arm C \[short intense\]) to receive daratumumab. Each treatment group will investigate 1 of 3 dosing schedules of daratumumab. The study will include a 28-Day Screening Phase, a Treatment Phase of 1 to 20 treatment cycles (each cycle is 8 weeks in duration for total period of 8 to 160 weeks), and a Follow up Phase of 4-weeks from the last dose of study drug. For participants in Arm A (long intense) and Arm B (intermediate), there is a possibility to extend treatment with IV daratumumab (Q8W) after the end of Cycle 20 if, as per investigator discretion, there is a positive benefit/risk ratio, absence of Grade \>=3 treatment related toxicity, and at least stable disease has been achieved. For participants participating in treatment extension, the duration of infusion may be shortened to a 90-minute infusion or can switch to daratumumab 1800mg subcutaneous (Q8w). The Follow-up Phase will continue until death, lost to follow up, consent withdrawal, or study end, whichever occurs first. The end of the study will occur approximately 7 years after the last participant enrolled receives a first dose of study drug. 'Disease assessment will be performed locally per Standard of Care.

16 mg/kg administered by intravenous (IV) infusion once every week in Cycle 1, every other week in Cycle 2 and Cycle 3, every 4 weeks in Cycle 4 to Cycle 7, and from Cycle 8 to Cycle 20 on Day 1 of each cycle. If, as per investigator discretion, there is a positive benefit/risk ratio, absence of Grade greater than or equal to (\>=) 3 treatment related toxicity, and at least stable disease has been achieved, treatment can be extended and given every 8 weeks after Cycle 20. For participants participating in treatment extension, the duration of infusion may be shortened to a 90-minute infusion or can switch to daratumumab 1800mg subcutaneous (Q8w).

Percentage of Participants Who Achieved a Complete Response (CR) by International Myeloma Working Group (IMWG) Criteria
Percentage of participants who achieved a CR by IMWG Criteria were reported. CR was defined as CR plus stringent complete Response (sCR) by IMWG criteria. Per IMWG criteria, CR response was defined as a negative immunofixation on the serum and urine, and less than (\<) 5 percentage (%) plasma cells in bone marrow; sCR was defined as CR plus normal free light chain (FLC) ratio, and absence of clonal plasma cells by immunohistochemistry, immunofluorescence or 2- to 4-color flow cytometry.
Time frame: From Cycle 1 Day 1 up to 1.58 years
Progressive Disease or Death Rate
Progressive disease (PD) or death rate were reported. PD or death rate per patient-year was defined as number of events (PD or death) divided by total progression-free survival (PFS) for all participants.
Time frame: From Cycle 1 Day 1 up to 2.07 years
Minimal Residual Disease (MRD) Negative Rate
MRD negative rate were reported. The MRD negativity rate was defined as the percentage of participants with a CR or better response who had negative MRD (10\^-4 and 10\^-5) assessment at any timepoint after the first dose of study drugs by evaluation of bone marrow aspirates at any time after the randomization and prior to progressive disease, subsequent therapy.
Time frame: From Cycle 1 Day 1 up to 91.6 months
Time to Next Treatment (TNT) for Active Myeloma
Time to next treatment (TNT) for active myeloma were reported. Time to next treatment was defined as the time from the date of randomization to the date of the first subsequent multiple myeloma treatment. Kaplan-Meier estimate was used.
Time frame: From randomization (Day -5) up to the date of first subsequent antimyeloma treatment (up to 7.89 years)
Percentage of Participants Who Achieved Partial Response or Better Response (Stringent Complete Response [sCR] Plus Complete Response [CR] Plus Very Good Partial Response [VGPR] or a Partial Response [PR])

Per IMWG criteria, CR: was defined as a negative immunofixation on serum and urine, and \<5% plasma cells in bone marrow; sCR: CR plus normal FLC ratio, and absence of clonal plasma cells by immunohistochemistry, immunofluorescence or 2- to 4-color flow cytometry. VGPR: Serum and urine M-protein detectable by immunofixation but not on electrophoresis or \>=90% reduction in serum M-protein plus urine M-protein level \<100 mg/24 hours; PR: \>=50% reduction of serum M-protein and reduction in 24 hour urinary M-protein by \>= 90% or to \<200 mg/24 hours; if serum and urine M-protein were not measurable, a decrease of \>=50% in difference between involved and uninvolved FLC levels was required instead of M-protein criteria. If serum and urine M-protein were not measurable and serum free light assay was also not measurable, \>=50% reduction in bone marrow plasma cells was required in place of M-protein, provided baseline bone marrow plasma cells percentage was \>=30%.
