Dose Escalation Study of Teclistamab, a Humanized BCMA*CD3 Bispecific Antibody, in Participants With Relapsed or Refractory Multiple Myeloma

Phase 1

Active, not recruiting

• Conditions: Hematological Malignancies
• Interventions: Drug: Teclistamab (IV); Drug: Teclistamab(SC)

• Registration Number: NCT03145181
• Lead Sponsor: Janssen Research & Development, LLC

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to identify the recommended Phase 2 dose(s) (RP2Ds) and schedule assessed to be safe for Teclistamab and to characterize the safety and tolerability of Teclistamab at the RP2Ds.

Detailed Description

The study will be conducted in 2 parts, separately for IV and SC administration: dose escalation (Part 1) and dose expansion (Part 2). It will evaluate safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and preliminary antitumor activity of Teclistamab administered to adult participants with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma. The overall safety of the study drug will be assessed by physical examinations, Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status, laboratory tests, vital signs, electrocardiograms, adverse event monitoring, and concomitant medication usage. Disease evaluations will include peripheral blood and bone marrow assessments at screening (performed within 28 days) and to confirm stringent complete response (sCR), complete response (CR), or relapse from CR. The end of study (study completion) is defined as 2 years after the last participant in Part 3 has received his or her initial dose of teclistamab. Study record NCT04557098 is Phase 2 part of this study and study record NCT03145181 is Phase 1 part of this study.

Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Number of Participants With Adverse Events (AEs) as a Measure of Safety and Tolerability	Up to 7 years and 3 months	An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a participant participating in a clinical study that does not necessarily have a causal relationship with the pharmaceutical/biological agent under study.
Dose Limiting Toxicity (DLT)	Up to Day 28	The Dose Limiting Toxicities (DLTs) are based on drug related adverse events and defined as any of the following events: hematological / non hematological toxicity of Grade 3 or higher.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Biomarker Assessment	Up to 8 weeks	Biomarker assessment may be done to evaluate the effect of Teclistamab.
Teclistamab Serum Concentrations	Up to 8 weeks	Concentration assessment will be done to evaluate the effect of Teclistamab.
Number of Participants with Teclistamab Antibodies	Up to 8 weeks	Antibodies to Teclistamab will be assessed to evaluate potential immunogenicity.
Preliminary Antitumor Activity of Teclistamab at the RP2D(s) in Part 2	Up to End of Treatment (Approximately 91 days)	Preliminary antitumor activity of Teclistamab will be done using the International Myeloma Working Group (IMWG) response criteria.
