Abstract

BACKGROUND: In a phase 1-2 trial, teclistamab, a bispecific antibody targeting CD3 on T-cell surfaces and B-cell maturation antigen on myeloma cells, showed durable responses in heavily pretreated patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma. Daratumumab, a monoclonal antibody targeting CD38 protein, has shown survival benefit in patients with multiple myeloma.

METHODS: In this phase 3 trial, we randomly assigned patients with one to three previous lines of therapy to receive combination therapy with teclistamab-daratumumab or daratumumab combined with dexamethasone plus the investigator's choice of pomalidomide (DPd) or bortezomib (DVd) - the DPd or DVd group. The primary end point was progression-free survival, as assessed by an independent review committee.

RESULTS: A total of 587 patients underwent randomization (291 to receive teclistamab-daratumumab and 296 to receive DPd or DVd). At a median of 34.5 months, progression-free survival was significantly longer with teclistamab-daratumumab than with DPd or DVd. The estimated 36-month progression-free survival was 83.4% in the teclistamab-daratumumab group and 29.7% in the DPd or DVd group (hazard ratio, 0.17; 95% confidence interval, 0.12 to 0.23; P<0.001). More patients in the teclistamab-daratumumab group than in the DPd or DVd group had a complete response or better (81.8% vs. 32.1%), an overall response (89.0% vs. 75.3%), and minimal residual disease negativity (10-5; 58.4% vs. 17.1%) (P<0.001 for all comparisons). Serious adverse events occurred in 70.7% of the patients in the teclistamab-daratumumab group and in 62.4% of those in the DPd or DVd group; death from adverse events occurred in 7.1% and 5.9%, respectively.

CONCLUSIONS: In patients with multiple myeloma who had received one to three previous lines of therapy, those in the teclistamab-daratumumab group had significantly longer progression-free survival than those in the DPd or DVd group.
