Summary
- This summary is based on the review of one systematic review/meta-analysis. [1-2]
- The overall response rate (ORR) for B-cell maturation antigen (BCMA)-targeting bispecific antibodies (BsAbs) in treating relapsed refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM) across 13 studies ranged from 25% to 100%, with complete response/stringent complete response (complete response (CR)/stringent complete responses (sCR)) between 7% and 38%, very good partial response (VGPR) from 5% to 92%, and partial response (PR) from 5% to 14%.
- For non-BCMA-targeting agents studied across five trials, the ORR ranged from 60% to 100%, with CR/sCR between 19% and 63% and VGPR between 21% and 65%, indicating generally higher efficacy compared to BCMA-targeting agents.
- The review focuses on patients with RRMM but does not provide further differentiation in effectiveness based on specific population types or subgroups.
- Common adverse events associated with BsAbs in patients with RRMM included cytokine release syndrome (CRS) occurring in 17-82% of patients, anemia in 5-52%, neutropenia in 12-75%, and thrombocytopenia in 14-42%.
- The safety profile of BsAbs was generally considered good within the RRMM cohort, with no specific significant safety concerns or adverse effects reported for particular population types or subgroups.
- There is no population types or subgroups information available in the reviewed documents.
