ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT05572229
What this study is testing

Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment - it is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.
- What it's testing
- The primary hypothesis of this study is that teclistamab SC in combination with daratumumab SC or lenalidomide will be safe and induce a high rate of VGPR or better in newly diagnosed multiple myeloma patients This is an open-label, multicenter, non-comparative, 2-cohort, 2-stage with interruption of enrollment for an efficacy and safety interim analysis, interventional Phase 2 study evaluating the efficacy and safety of a combination with Tec-Dara (Cohort A) or Tec-Len (Cohort B) in patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma who are not eligible for SCT.
- Phase 2: a mid-size study of how well it works
A plain-language read of the study's public ClinicalTrials.gov listing. The study team confirms the details.
