Treatments tested in this trial
Teclistamab
DrugTeclistamab will be administered subcutaneously at step-up doses on Day 1, Day 4 and Day 8, one week after first treatment dose and weekly thereafter. In participants who have a partial response (PR) or better after 6 months of therapy, dosing frequency may be reduced to every 2 weeks.
Talquetamab
DrugTalquetamab will be administered subcutaneously at step-up doses on Day 1, Day 4, Day 8 and Day 15, one week after first treatment dose and every 2 weeks thereafter. In participants who have a very good partial response (VGPR) or better after Cycle 4, dosing frequency may be reduced to every 4 weeks
Tocilizumab
DrugTocilizumab will be administered as a pretreatment medication in advance of administration of the first step-up dose of teclistamab or talquetamab on Cycle 1 Day 1.
Oral Dexamethasone
DrugOral dexamethasone will be administered as a pretreatment medication every 12 hours in 3 doses (PM/AM/PM) following each step-up dose and the first full dose of teclistamab in Cycle 1. A total of 9 doses of oral dexamethasone will be administered.
Treatment groups
Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Incidence of CRS of any grade during the first two cycles
Evaluate the overall incidence of CRS in the first 2 cycles after a single dose of prophylactic tocilizumab given 2 to 4 hours prior to step-up dose 1 of teclistamab or talquetamab or after 3 doses of oral dexamethasone given after each step-up dose and the first full dose of teclistamab.
Secondary outcomes
Incidence of recurrent CRS of any grade
Evaluate the incidence of recurrent CRS either after a single dose of prophylactic tocilizumab given 2 to 4 hours prior to step-up dose 1 of teclistamab or talquetamab or after 3 doses of oral dexamethasone given after each step-up dose and the first full dose of teclistamab.
Incidence of CRS of any grade
Evaluate the incidence of CRS after a single dose of prophylactic tocilizumab given 2 to 4 hours prior to step-up dose 1 of teclistamab or talquetamab or after 3 doses of oral dexamethasone given after each step-up dose and the first full dose of teclistamab.
Incidence of recurrent CRS of any grade
Evaluate the incidence of recurrent CRS after a single dose of prophylactic tocilizumab given 2 to 4 hours prior to step-up dose 1 of teclistamab or talquetamab or after 3 doses of oral dexamethasone given after each step-up dose and the first full dose of teclistamab.
Incidence of Grade ≥2 CRS
Evaluate the incidence of Grade ≥2 CRS based on American Society for Transplantation and Cellular Therapy (ASTCT) 2019 grading for CRS (Grade 1 to 5 with grade 5 defined as the worse outcome-Death) in the first 2 cycles after a single dose of prophylactic tocilizumab given 2 to 4 hours prior to step-up dose 1 of teclistamab or talquetamab or after 3 doses of oral dexamethasone given after each step-up dose and the first full dose of teclistamab.
