Exploring the Frontline Potential of Teclistamab: Insights From MajesTEC-5 at ASH 2024

Saad Z. Usmani, MD, MBA, FACP, discusses how the MajesTEC-5 study, presented at ASH 2024, demonstrates the potential of teclistamab in combination with standard therapy in the frontline setting, highlighting its safety profile and 100% minimal residual disease (MRD) negativity after cycle 3, and explores how using bispecific antibodies like teclistamab earlier in treatment could influence future options for relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma.

Video content above is prompted by the following:

  • Bispecific antibodies have had a significant impact on the treatment landscape for R/R multiple myeloma. Data presented at ASH is evaluating the use of bispecifics earlier in treatment. Briefly describe the data presented on MajesTEC-5, which evaluates teclistamab in combination with standard therapy in the frontline setting.
