Strategic Use of Bispecific Antibodies in R/R MM
Panelists discuss at what line of therapy bispecific antibodies are considered in treatment decision-making, whether they are used earlier or later in the sequence, and the factors influencing that choice, including weighing bispecifics against other options like chimeric antigen receptor (chimeric antigen receptor) T or standard therapies. They also address the clinical and molecular factors that guide the selection between B-cell maturation antigen (BCMA)– and GPRC5D-targeting bispecifics and comment on the study exploring talquetamab as a bridging strategy before BCMA CAR T therapy, highlighting the potential impact of bispecifics in this treatment paradigm.
