Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Received any prior therapy for multiple myeloma or smoldering myeloma other than a short course of (not to exceed total of 160 milligrams [mg] dexamethasone or equivalent). In addition, received a cumulative dose of systemic corticosteroids equivalent to greater than or equals to (>=) 20 mg of dexamethasone within 14 days before randomization

  • Myeloma Frailty Index of >=2 with the exception of participants who have a score of 2 based on age alone
Terms in these criteria, in plain language(7)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

Allogeneic and autologous transplant

Stem cell (bone marrow) transplants. Allogeneic uses cells from a donor; autologous uses your own cells, collected earlier and given back.

ECOG performance status

A scale of how much an illness limits everyday activity. For people being assessed to join a study, scores run from 0 (fully active) to 4; lower is more active.

0
Fully active, no restrictions.
1
Limited in strenuous activity, but walking and able to do light work, such as housework or office work.
2
Walking and able to look after yourself, but unable to work; up and about more than half of waking hours.
3
Able to look after yourself only in part; in bed or a chair more than half of waking hours.
4
Unable to look after yourself at all; in bed or a chair all day.

Studies most often ask for 0–1 or 0–2. Your doctor gives the score; the WHO scale uses the same steps. The full scale also has 5, which records death.

Corticosteroids (steroids)

Anti-inflammatory medicines such as prednisone, prednisolone and dexamethasone — not the anabolic steroids used for muscle.

Studies differ in what they allow: check which steroid medicines, routes (tablets, injections, creams, inhalers, eye drops) and doses this study accepts.

TIA (transient ischaemic attack)

A “mini-stroke”: temporary stroke-like symptoms caused by reduced blood flow to part of the brain, spinal cord or eye, without signs of a new stroke on a scan.

Stroke symptoms need emergency care at once, even if they go away.

Hypersensitivity

An allergy, or another reaction of the immune system, to a substance. “Hypersensitivity to the study drug” means a known allergic reaction to it — not every side effect a medicine can have.

Excipients

The other ingredients in a medicine besides the active drug, such as fillers, colours or preservatives.

Contraindication

A reason a treatment, test or procedure should not be given to a particular person, such as an allergy, another illness or a medicine they take.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Progression Free Survival (PFS)

    PFS is defined as the duration from the date of randomization to either progressive disease or death, whichever comes first. Disease progression will be determined according to the International Myeloma Working Group (IMWG) response criteria.

    Time frame: From randomization to the date of disease progression or death (Up to 09 years)

  2. 12-Month Minimal Residual Disease (MRD)-Negative Complete Response (CR)

    12-month MRD-negative CR is defined as participants who achieve MRD-negative status at 12 months, as determined by next-generation sequencing (NGS) with sensitivity of 10\^-5, prior to progressive disease or subsequent anti-myeloma therapy and who also achieve CR or better, according to IMWG criteria.

    Time frame: At Month 12

Secondary outcomes

  1. Very Good Partial Response (VGPR) or Better

    VGPR or better is defined as the percentage of participants achieving VGPR and CR (including stringent complete response \[sCR\]) prior to subsequent antimyeloma therapy in accordance with the IMWG criteria during or after the study treatment.

    Time frame: From randomization up to 09 years

  2. Complete Response (CR) or Better

    CR or better is defined as the percentage of participants achieving CR or sCR prior to subsequent antimyeloma therapy in accordance with the IMWG criteria during or after the study treatment.

    Time frame: From randomization up to 09 years

  3. Sustained Minimal Residual disease (MRD)-negative Complete Response (CR)

    Sustained MRD-negative CR is defined as participants with CR or better who sustain MRD-negative status, as determined by NGS with sensitivity of 10\^-5, for at least 12 months without any examination showing MRD positive status or progressive disease in between.

    Time frame: From randomization up to 09 years

  4. MRD-negative CR

    MRD-negative CR is defined as the percentage of participants who achieve MRD-negative status, as determined by NGS with sensitivity of 10\^-5, at any time after randomization and prior to progressive disease or subsequent antimyeloma therapy and who achieve CR or better.

    Time frame: From randomization up to 09 years

  5. Progression Free Survival on Next-line Therapy (PFS2)

    PFS2 is defined as the time interval between the date of randomization and date of event, which is defined as progressive disease as assessed by investigator that starts after the next line of subsequent therapy, or death from any cause, whichever occurs first.

    Time frame: From randomization up to 09 years

  6. Overall Survival (OS)

    OS is defined as the time from the date of randomization to the date of death due to any cause.

    Time frame: From randomization to the date of death (up to 09 years)

  7. Number of Participants with Adverse Events (AEs) by Severity

    An adverse event is any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical study participant administered a pharmaceutical (investigational or non-investigational) product. An adverse event does not necessarily have a causal relationship with the treatment. Severity will be graded according to the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI-CTCAE) version 5.0. Severity scale ranges from Grade 1: mild, Grade 2: moderate, Grade 3: severe, Grade 4: life-threatening, and Grade 5: death related to adverse event.

    Time frame: From randomization up to 09 years

  8. Number of Participants with Abnormalities in Laboratory Parameters

    Number of participants with abnormalities in laboratory parameters (serum chemistry and hematology) will be reported.

    Time frame: From randomization up to 09 years

  9. Number of Participants with Abnormalities in Vital Signs

    Number of participants with abnormalities in vital signs (temperature, pulse/heart rate, respiratory rate, blood pressure) will be reported.

    Time frame: From randomization up to 09 years

  10. Number of Participants with Abnormalities in Physical Examination

    Number of participants with abnormalities in physical examination will be reported.

    Time frame: From randomization up to 09 years

  11. Number of Participants with Abnormalities in Electrocardiogram (ECG)

    Number of participants with abnormalities in ECG will be reported.

    Time frame: From randomization up to 09 years

  13. Number of Participants with Anti-drug Antibodies (ADAs) to Teclistamab and Talquetamab

    Number of participants with ADAs to teclistamab and talquetamab will be reported.

    Time frame: From randomization up to 09 years

  14. Change from Baseline in Symptoms, Functioning, and Health-related Quality of Life (HRQoL) as Assessed by European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality-of-life Questionnaire Core 30 (EORTC-QLQ-C30)

    The EORTC-QLQ-C30 Version 3 includes 30 items that make up 5 functional scales (physical, role, emotional, cognitive, and social), 1 global health status scale, 3 symptom scales (pain, fatigue, and nausea/vomiting), and 5 single symptom items (dyspnea, insomnia, appetite loss, constipation, and diarrhea) and a single impact item (financial difficulties). The recall period is 7 days ("past week"), and responses are reported using a verbal and numeric rating scales. The item and scale scores are transformed to a 0 to 100 scale. A high scale score represents a higher response level. Thus, a high score for a functional scale represents a high/healthy level of functioning and a high score for the global health status represents high HRQoL, but a high score for a symptom scale/item represents a high level of symptomatology/problems.

    Time frame: From baseline up to 9 years

  15. Change from Baseline in Treatment-related Symptoms as Assessed by Patient-Reported Outcomes Version of the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (PRO-CTCAE)

    The National Cancer Institute's (NCI's) PRO-CTCAE is an item library of common AEs experienced by people with cancer that are appropriate for self-reporting of treatment tolerability. Each symptom selected for inclusion can be rated by up to 3 attributes characterizing the presence/frequency, severity, and/or interference of the AEs. It ranges from 0 to 4 with higher scores indicating higher frequency or greater severity/impact.

    Time frame: Baseline through Cycle 6 (each cycle of 28 days) (up to 196 days)

  16. Change from Baseline in Symptoms, Functioning, and Overall HRQoL as Assessed by EuroQol Five Dimension Questionnaire 5-Level (EQ-5D-5L)

    The EQ-5D-5L is a 5-item questionnaire that assesses 5 domains including mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort, and anxiety/depression plus a visual analog scale rating "health today" with anchors ranging from 0 (worst imaginable health state) to 100 (best imaginable health state).

    Time frame: From baseline up to 9 years

  17. Time to Sustained Worsening in Symptoms, Functioning, and HRQoL

    Time to sustained worsening in symptoms, functioning and HRQoL is defined as the interval from the date of randomization to the start date of meaningful change.

    Time frame: From randomization up to 09 years
