Teclistamab or Talquetamab in Combination with Daratumumab for the Treatment of High-Risk Smoldering Multiple Myeloma, The REVIVE Trial

Trial Status: active

This phase II trial compares the effect of teclistamab and talquetamab each when given in combination with daratumumab in treating patients with high-risk smoldering multiple myeloma (HR-SMM). HR-SMM is a condition that produces excessive numbers of abnormal plasma cells (myeloma cells) in the bone marrow that are associated with abnormally high levels of proteins secreted from the plasma cells. This condition greatly increases the risk for developing a blood cancer called multiple myeloma (MM). The overall goal of this study is to see whether treatment with teclistamab and daratumumab will delay the onset of MM. Teclistamab and talquetamab are in a class of medications called bispecific monoclonal antibodies. Teclistamab binds to a protein called CD3, which is found on T cells (a type of white blood cell). It also binds to a protein called BCMA, which is found on myeloma cells and some B cells (another type of white blood cell). This may help the immune system kill cancer cells. Teclistamab binds to CD3 and to a protein called GPRC5D, which is found on myeloma cells and some other types of cells. This may help the immune system kill the cancer cells. Daratumumab is in a class of medications called monoclonal antibodies. It binds to a protein called CD38, which is found on some types of immune cells and cancer cells, including myeloma cells. Daratumumab may block CD38 and help the immune system kill cancer cells. Giving teclistamab or talquetamab in combination with daratumumab may be effective in treating HR-SMM and/or delaying its progression to active or symptomatic MM.
