Comparing new treatment combinations for relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma

A Phase 3 Randomized Study Comparing Talquetamab in Combination With Pomalidomide (Tal-P), Talquetamab in Combination With Teclistamab (Tal-Tec), and Investigator's Choice of Either Elotuzumab, Pomalidomide, and Dexamethasone (EPd) or Pomalidomide, Bortezomib, and Dexamethasone (PVd) in Participants With Relapsed or Refractory Myeloma Who Have Received 1 to 4 Prior Lines of Therapy Including an Anti-CD38 Antibody and Lenalidomide

What this trial studies

This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of two treatment combinations involving talquetamab with either pomalidomide or teclistamab, compared to standard treatments that include elotuzumab or bortezomib along with pomalidomide and dexamethasone. Participants will be individuals with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma who have previously received an anti-CD38 antibody and lenalidomide. The study is designed as a Phase 3 interventional trial to determine which combination provides better outcomes for patients. The effectiveness will be measured based on the response rates and progression-free survival of the participants.

Who should consider this trial

Good fit: Ideal candidates for this study are adults diagnosed with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma who have measurable disease and have previously received specific treatments.

Not a fit: Patients who have not been treated with an anti-CD38 antibody or lenalidomide may not benefit from this study.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this study could provide patients with more effective treatment options for relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma.

How similar studies have performed: Other studies have shown promising results with similar treatment combinations in multiple myeloma, indicating potential for success.

Inclusion Criteria:

* Documented multiple myeloma as defined by the criteria below: (a) multiple myeloma diagnosis according to the international myeloma working group (IMWG) diagnostic criteria (b) measurable disease at screening as assessed by central laboratory, defined by any of the following: (i) serum M-protein level greater than or equal to (\>=) 0.5 gram per deciliter (g/dL); or (ii) urine M-protein level \>= 200 milligram (mg) per 24 hours; or (iii) light chain multiple myeloma without measurable M-protein in the serum or the urine: serum immunoglobulin (Ig) free light chain (FLC) \>= 10 milligrams per deciliter (mg/dL) and abnormal serum Ig kappa lambda FLC ratio
* Relapsed or refractory disease as defined below: a) Relapsed disease is defined as an initial response to prior treatment, followed by confirmed progressive disease (PD) by IMWG criteria greater than (\>) 60 days after cessation of treatment. b) Refractory disease is defined as less than (\<) 25 percent (%) reduction in M-protein or confirmed PD by IMWG criteria during previous treatment or less than or equal to (\<=) 60 days after cessation of treatment
* Documented evidence of PD or failure to achieve a minimal response to the last line of therapy based on investigator's determination of response by IMWG criteria on or after their last regimen
* Have an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status score of 0, 1, or 2 at screening and immediately prior to the start of administration of study treatment
* A participant must agree not to be pregnant, breastfeeding, or planning to become pregnant while enrolled in this study or within 6 months after the last dose of study treatment
