Risk Summary

Based on the mechanism of action, TECVAYLI may cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant patient [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.1)]. There are no available data on the use of TECVAYLI in pregnant patients to evaluate for a drug associated risk. No animal reproductive or developmental toxicity studies have been conducted with TECVAYLI. Teclistamab-cqyv causes T-cell activation and cytokine release; immune activation may compromise pregnancy maintenance. Human immunoglobulin G (IgG) is known to cross the placenta; therefore, teclistamab-cqyv has the potential to be transmitted from the mother to the developing fetus. Advise women of the potential risk to the fetus.

TECVAYLI is associated with hypogammaglobulinemia, therefore, assessment of immunoglobulin levels in newborns of mothers treated with TECVAYLI should be considered.

In the U.S. general population, the estimated background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage in clinically recognized pregnancies is 2% to 4% and 15% to 20%, respectively.

Risk Summary

There are no data on the presence of teclistamab-cqyv in human milk, the effect on the breastfed child, or the effects on milk production. Maternal IgG is known to be present in human milk. The effects of local gastrointestinal exposure and limited systemic exposure in the breastfed child to TECVAYLI are unknown. Because of the potential for serious adverse reactions in a breastfed child, advise women not to breastfeed during treatment with TECVAYLI and for 5 months after the last dose.

Teclistamab-cqyv, a bispecific B-cell maturation antigen (BCMA)-directed CD3 T-cell engager, is a humanized immunoglobulin G4-proline, alanine, alanine (IgG4-PAA) antibody. Teclistamab-cqyv is produced in Chinese Hamster Ovary (CHO) cells using recombinant DNA technology. Teclistamab-cqyv consists of an anti-BCMA heavy chain and light chain and an anti-CD3 heavy chain and light chain with two interchain disulfide bonds connecting the two arms. The molecular weight of teclistamab-cqyv is approximately 146 kDa.

TECVAYLI^® (teclistamab-cqyv) injection is a sterile, preservative-free, clear to slightly opalescent, colorless to light yellow solution supplied in a single-dose vial for subcutaneous administration.

Each TECVAYLI 3 mL single-dose vial contains 30 mg of teclistamab-cqyv, edetate disodium (0.054 mg), glacial acetic acid (0.72 mg), polysorbate 20 (1.2 mg), sodium acetate (2.7 mg), sucrose (240 mg), and Water for Injection, USP.

Each TECVAYLI 1.7 mL single-dose vial contains 153 mg of teclistamab-cqyv, edetate disodium (0.031 mg), glacial acetic acid (0.41 mg), polysorbate 20 (0.68 mg), sodium acetate (1.5 mg), sucrose (140 mg), and Water for Injection, USP.

TECVAYLI can cause severe, life-threatening, or fatal infections.

In MajesTEC-1 (N=165), in patients who received the recommended TECVAYLI dosage, serious infections, including opportunistic infections, occurred in 30% of patients, Grade 3 or 4 infections occurred in 35% of patients, and fatal infections occurred in 4.2% of patients [see Adverse Reactions (6.1)].

In MajesTEC-3 (N=283), in patients who received TECVAYLI in combination with daratumumab and hyaluronidase-fihj at the recommended dosage, serious infections, including opportunistic infections, occurred in 54% of patients, Grade 3 or Grade 4 infections occurred in 54% of patients and fatal infections occurred in 4.6% of patients [see Adverse Reactions (6.1)].

Monitor patients for signs and symptoms of infection prior to and during treatment with TECVAYLI and treat appropriately. Administer prophylactic antimicrobials according to current practice guidelines [see Dosage and Administration (2.3)].

Withhold TECVAYLI or consider permanent discontinuation of TECVAYLI based on severity [see Dosage and Administration (2.5)].

Monitor immunoglobulin levels prior to and during treatment with TECVAYLI and administer subcutaneous or intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) to maintain the serum levels >400 mg/dL.

TECVAYLI can cause neutropenia and febrile neutropenia. In patients who received TECVAYLI at the recommended dosage in the clinical trials (monotherapy and combination therapy trials; N=448), decreased neutrophils occurred in 88% of patients, with Grade 3 or 4 decreased neutrophils in 70%. Febrile neutropenia occurred in 6% of patients [see Adverse Reactions (6.1)].

Monitor complete blood cell counts at baseline and periodically during treatment and provide supportive care per local institutional guidelines.

Monitor patients with neutropenia for signs of infection.

Withhold TECVAYLI based on severity [see Dosage and Administration (2.5)].

The safety and efficacy of TECVAYLI have not been established in pediatric patients.

• Of the 165 patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma treated with TECVAYLI in MajesTEC-1 at the recommended dosage, 48% were 65 years of age or older, and 15% were 75 years of age or older. No overall differences in safety or effectiveness were observed between patients 65 to 74 years of age compared to younger patients. The study did not include a sufficient number of patients 75 years of age or older to assess whether there are differences in safety or effectiveness.
• Of the 291 patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma treated with TECVAYLI at the recommended dosage in combination with daratumumab and hyaluronidase-fihj in MajesTEC-3, 51% were younger than 65 years of age, 39% were 65 to 74 years of age, and 11% were 75 years of age or older. No overall differences in effectiveness were observed between patients 65 to 74 years of age compared to younger patients. The study did not include a sufficient number of patients 75 years of age or older to assess whether there are differences in effectiveness compared to younger patients. There was a higher incidence of serious adverse reactions in patients 75 years of age or older (83%) and in patients 65 to 74 years of age (77%) as compared to patients younger than 65 years of age (63%).

TECVAYLI can cause hepatotoxicity, including fatalities. There was one fatal case of hepatic failure in MajesTEC-1. In patients who received TECVAYLI at the recommended dosage in the clinical trials (monotherapy and combination therapy trials; N=448), elevated aspartate aminotransferase (AST) occurred in 47% of patients, with Grade 3 or 4 elevations in 2.9%. Elevated alanine aminotransferase (ALT) occurred in 48% of patients, with Grade 3 or 4 elevations in 3.8%. Elevated total bilirubin occurred in 10% of patients with Grade 3 or 4 elevations in 0.7%. Liver enzyme elevation can occur with or without concurrent CRS.

Monitor liver enzymes and bilirubin at baseline and during TECVAYLI treatment as clinically indicated. Withhold TECVAYLI or consider permanent discontinuation of TECVAYLI based on severity [see Dosage and Administration (2.5)].

The observed incidence of anti-drug antibodies is highly dependent on the sensitivity and specificity of the assay. Differences in assay methods preclude meaningful comparisons of the incidence of anti-drug antibodies in the studies described below with the incidence of anti-drug antibodies in other studies, including those of teclistamab-cqyv or of other teclistamab products.

Among patients treated with subcutaneous TECVAYLI at various dosages, anti-teclistamab-cqyv antibodies developed in 1/186 (0.5%) of patients who received monotherapy (up to 27 months) and in 2/379 (0.5%) of patients who received combination therapy with daratumumab and hyaluronidase-fihj (up to 43 months). Because of the low occurrence of anti-teclistamab-cqyv antibodies, the effect of these antibodies on the pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, safety, and/or effectiveness of teclistamab products is unknown.

None.

The following adverse reactions are also described elsewhere in the labeling:

• Cytokine Release Syndrome [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1)]
• Neurologic Toxicity including ICANS [see Warnings and Precautions (5.2)]
• Hepatotoxicity [see Warnings and Precautions (5.4)]
• Infections [see Warnings and Precautions (5.5)]
• Neutropenia [see Warnings and Precautions (5.6)]
• Hypersensitivity and Other Administration Reactions [see Warnings and Precautions (5.7)]

TECVAYLI causes release of cytokines [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.2)] that may suppress activity of certain cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes, resulting in increased exposure of CYP substrates, which may increase the risk of adverse reactions of the CYP substrates. The highest risk of drug-drug interaction is expected to occur after initiation of TECVAYLI step-up dosing schedule up to 7 days after the first treatment dose and during and after CRS [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1)].

Monitor for toxicity and/or concentrations of CYP substrates where minimal increases in concentration may lead to serious adverse reactions. Consider decreasing the dosage of the concomitant CYP substrate as needed.

Serum concentrations of cytokines (IL-6, IL-10, TNF-α, and IFN-γ) and IL-2R were measured before and after administration of step-up dose 1, step-up dose 2, and the three weekly doses of 1.5 mg/kg of TECVAYLI. Increased concentrations of IL-6, IL-10, and IL-2R were observed during this period.

The C_max and C_avg of teclistamab-cqyv after the first subcutaneous 1.5 mg/kg TECVAYLI dose increase proportionally over a dosage range of 0.08 mg/kg to 3 mg/kg in monotherapy (0.05 to 2 times the approved recommended treatment dosage). Following the recommended dosage of TECVAYLI monotherapy, 90% of steady state exposure was achieved after 12 weekly TECVAYLI doses (1.5 mg/kg once weekly). The mean accumulation ratio between the first and 13^th weekly dose of TECVAYLI 1.5 mg/kg was 4.2-fold for C_max, 4.1-fold for C_trough, and 5.3-fold for C_avg.

The pharmacokinetic characteristics of teclistamab-cqyv were consistent whether used as monotherapy or in combination with daratumumab and hyaluronidase-fihj. The C_max, C_trough, and C_avg of teclistamab-cqyv are presented in Table 16.

Absorption

The mean bioavailability of teclistamab-cqyv was 72% after subcutaneous administration of TECVAYLI. The median (range) T_max of teclistamab-cqyv after the first and 13^th TECVAYLI monotherapy treatment doses were 139 (19 to 168) hours and 72 (24 to 168) hours, respectively.

Distribution

The mean (coefficient of variation [CV]%) volume of distribution of teclistamab-cqyv was 5.63 L (29%).

Elimination

Teclistamab-cqyv clearance decreases over time, with a mean (CV%) maximal reduction from baseline to the 13^th weekly TECVAYLI monotherapy treatment dose of 40.8% (56%). The geometric mean (CV%) clearance is 0.472 L/day (64%) at the 13^th weekly TECVAYLI monotherapy treatment dose. Patients who discontinue TECVAYLI after the 13^th weekly monotherapy treatment dose are expected to have a 50% reduction from C_max in teclistamab-cqyv concentration at a median (5^th to 95^th percentile) time of 15 days (7 to 33 days) after T_max and a 97% reduction from C_max in teclistamab-cqyv concentration at a median time of 69 days (32 to 163 days) after T_max.

Specific Populations

There were no clinically significant differences in the exposure of teclistamab-cqyv based on age (24 to 84 years), sex, race (White, Black or African American), ethnicity (Hispanic/Latino, not Hispanic/Latino), mild or moderate renal impairment (estimated glomerular filtration rate [eGFR] by Modification of Diet in Renal Disease [MDRD] method: 30 to 89 mL/minute), or mild hepatic impairment (total bilirubin less than or equal to upper limit of normal [ULN] with AST greater than ULN or total bilirubin greater than 1 to 1.5 times ULN with any AST). The effects of severe renal impairment (eGFR less than 30 mL/minute) or moderate to severe hepatic impairment (total bilirubin greater than 1.5 times ULN with any AST) on the exposures of teclistamab-cqyv are unknown.

Body Weight

The volume of distribution and clearance of teclistamab-cqyv increase with increasing body weight (37.6 kg to 164 kg), supporting a weight-based dose.

Drug Interaction Studies

No clinical studies evaluating the drug interaction potential of teclistamab-cqyv have been conducted.

TECVAYLI is indicated for the treatment of adult patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma

• in combination with daratumumab and hyaluronidase-fihj in patients who have received at least one prior line of therapy, including a proteasome inhibitor and an immunomodulatory agent.
• as monotherapy, in patients who have received at least four prior lines of therapy, including a proteasome inhibitor, an immunomodulatory agent and an anti-CD38 monoclonal antibody.

Teclistamab-cqyv is a bispecific T-cell engaging antibody that binds to the CD3 receptor expressed on the surface of T-cells and B-cell maturation antigen (BCMA) expressed on the surface of multiple myeloma cells and some healthy B-lineage cells.

In vitro, teclistamab-cqyv activated T-cells, caused the release of various proinflammatory cytokines, and resulted in the lysis of multiple myeloma cells.

Based on its mechanism of action, TECVAYLI may cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant patient. Advise pregnant patients of the potential risk to the fetus. Advise females of reproductive potential to use effective contraception during treatment with TECVAYLI and for 5 months after the last dose [see Use in Specific Populations (8.1, 8.3)].

• Hepatotoxicity: Can cause hepatotoxicity, including fatalities. Monitor liver enzymes and bilirubin at baseline and during treatment as clinically indicated. Withhold TECVAYLI or consider permanent discontinuation of TECVAYLI based on severity (2.5, 5.4)
• Infections: Can cause severe, life-threatening, or fatal infections. Monitor patients for signs and symptoms of infection and treat appropriately. Withhold TECVAYLI or consider permanent discontinuation of TECVAYLI based on severity. (2.5, 5.5)
• Neutropenia: Monitor complete blood cell counts at baseline and periodically during treatment. Withhold TECVAYLI based on severity. (2.5, 5.6)
• Hypersensitivity and Other Administration Reactions: Can cause systemic administration-related reactions and local injection site reactions. Withhold TECVAYLI or consider permanent discontinuation of TECVAYLI based on severity. (2.5, 5.7)
• Embryo-Fetal Toxicity: May cause fetal harm. Advise females of reproductive potential of the potential risk to the fetus and to use effective contraception. (5.8, 8.1, 8.3)

• For subcutaneous injection only. (2.1)
• Patients should be hospitalized for 48 hours after administration of both step-up dose 1 and step-up dose 2. Instruct patients to remain within proximity of a healthcare facility and monitored daily for 48 hours after the first treatment dose within the TECVAYLI step-up dosing schedule. (2.1)
• See Full Prescribing Information for the recommended dosage for TECVAYLI monotherapy and combination therapy. (2.2, 2.3)
• Administer pretreatment medications as recommended. (2.3)
• Refer to Tables 8, 9, 10, and 11 to determine the total dose, injection volume, and number of vials based on the patient's body weight. (2.6)
• See Full Prescribing Information for instructions on preparation and administration. (2.6)

Injection

• 30 mg/3 mL (10 mg/mL) clear to slightly opalescent, colorless to light yellow solution in a single-dose vial.
• 153 mg/1.7 mL (90 mg/mL) clear to slightly opalescent, colorless to light yellow solution in a single-dose vial.

TECVAYLI is available only through a restricted program under a REMS called the "TECVAYLI and TALVEY REMS" because of the risks of CRS and neurologic toxicity, including ICANS [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1, 5.2)].

Notable requirements of the TECVAYLI and TALVEY REMS include the following:

• Prescribers must be certified with the REMS by enrolling and completing training.
• Prescribers must counsel patients receiving TECVAYLI about the risk of CRS and neurologic toxicity, including ICANS, and provide patients with Patient Wallet Card.
• Pharmacies and healthcare settings that dispense TECVAYLI must be certified with this REMS and must verify prescribers are certified through this REMS.
• Wholesalers and distributers must only distribute TECVAYLI to certified pharmacies or healthcare settings.

Further information about the "TECVAYLI and TALVEY REMS" is available at www.TEC-TALREMS.com or by telephone at 1-855-810-8064.

TECVAYLI can cause cytokine release syndrome (CRS), including life-threatening or fatal reactions [see Adverse Reactions (6.1)].

In the clinical trials (monotherapy and combination therapy trials; N=448), CRS occurred in 64% of patients who received TECVAYLI at the recommended dosage, with Grade 1 CRS occurring in 46% of patients, Grade 2 in 18%, and Grade 3 in 0.2%. Recurrent CRS occurred in 27% of patients. Most patients experienced CRS during the initial step-up dosing schedule (step-up dose 1 (37%), step-up dose 2 (32%), or the initial treatment dose (20%)). CRS first occurred following subsequent doses of TECVAYLI in 2.5% of patients. The median time to onset of CRS was 2 (range: 1 to 9) days after the most recent dose and the median duration of CRS was 2 (range: 1 to 22) days.

Clinical signs and symptoms of CRS included, but were not limited to, fever, hypoxia, chills, hypotension, sinus tachycardia, headache, and elevated liver enzymes (aspartate aminotransferase and alanine aminotransferase elevation).

Initiate therapy according to TECVAYLI step-up dosing schedule to reduce risk of CRS [see Dosage and Administration (2.1, 2.5)]. Administer pretreatment medications to reduce risk of CRS and monitor patients following administration of TECVAYLI accordingly [see Dosage and Administration (2.3, 2.5)].

At the first sign of CRS, immediately evaluate the patient for hospitalization. Administer supportive care based on severity and consider further management per current practice guidelines. Withhold until CRS resolves or permanently discontinue TECVAYLI based on severity [see Dosage and Administration (2.5)].

TECVAYLI is available only through a restricted program under a REMS [see Warnings and Precautions (5.3)].

Lactation: Advise not to breastfeed. (8.2)

Because clinical trials are conducted under widely varying conditions, adverse reaction rates observed in the clinical trials of a drug cannot be directly compared to rates in the clinical trials of another drug and may not reflect the rates observed in practice.

Relapsed/Refractory Multiple Myeloma

In Combination with Daratumumab and Hyaluronidase-fihj

The safety of TECVAYLI in combination with daratumumab and hyaluronidase-fihj (N=283) compared with either daratumumab and hyaluronidase-fihj, pomalidomide and dexamethasone (DPd) or daratumumab and hyaluronidase-fihj, bortezomib and dexamethasone (DVd) (N=290) was evaluated in patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma in MajesTEC-3 [see Clinical Studies (14.1)].

TECVAYLI is a clear to slightly opalescent, colorless to light yellow solution. Parenteral drug products should be inspected visually for particulate matter and discoloration prior to administration, whenever solution and container permit. Do not use if the solution is discolored, or cloudy, or if foreign particles are present.

TECVAYLI 30 mg/3 mL (10 mg/mL) vial and TECVAYLI 153 mg/1.7 mL (90 mg/mL) vial are supplied as ready-to-use solution that do not need dilution prior to administration.

Do not combine TECVAYLI vials of different concentrations to achieve treatment dose.

Use aseptic technique to prepare and administer TECVAYLI.

Preparation of TECVAYLI

Refer to the following reference tables for the preparation of TECVAYLI.

Refer to Tables 8, 9, 10 and 11 below to determine the dosage based on predetermined weight ranges.

Use Table 8 to determine total dose, injection volume and number of vials required based on patient's actual body weight for step-up dose 1 using TECVAYLI 30 mg/3 mL (10 mg/mL) vial.

Use Table 9 to determine total dose, injection volume and number of vials required based on patient's actual body weight for step-up dose 2 using TECVAYLI 30 mg/3 mL (10 mg/mL) vial.

Use Table 10 to determine total dose, injection volume and number of vials required based on patient's actual body weight for the 1.5 mg/kg dose using TECVAYLI 153 mg/1.7 mL (90 mg/mL) vial.

Use Table 11 to determine total dose, injection volume and number of vials required based on patient's actual body weight for the 3 mg/kg dose using TECVAYLI 153 mg/1.7 mL (90 mg/mL) vial.

• Remove the appropriate strength TECVAYLI vial(s) from refrigerated storage [2 °C to 8 °C (36 °F to 46 °F)].
• Once removed from refrigerated storage, equilibrate TECVAYLI to ambient temperature [15 °C to 30 °C (59 °F to 86 °F)] for at least 15 minutes. Do not warm TECVAYLI in any other way.
• Gently swirl the vial for approximately 10 seconds to mix. Do not shake.
• Withdraw the required injection volume of TECVAYLI from the vial(s) into an appropriately sized syringe using a transfer needle.
• Each injection volume should not exceed 2 mL. Divide doses that require greater than 2 mL equally into multiple syringes.
• Use TECVAYLI with stainless steel injection needles and polypropylene or polycarbonate syringe material.
• Replace the transfer needle with an appropriately sized needle for injection.

Administration of TECVAYLI

Inject the required volume of TECVAYLI into the subcutaneous tissue of the abdomen (preferred injection site). Alternatively, TECVAYLI may be injected into the subcutaneous tissue at other sites (e.g., thigh). If multiple injections are needed, administer injections at least 2 cm apart.

• Histamine-1 (H1) receptor antagonist (oral or intravenous diphenhydramine 50 mg or equivalent)
• Antipyretics (oral or intravenous acetaminophen 650 mg to 1,000 mg)

Administration of pretreatment medications may be required prior to administration of subsequent doses of TECVAYLI in patients who:

• Repeat doses within the TECVAYLI step-up dosing schedule following a dose delay [see Dosage and Administration (2.4)].
• Experienced CRS following the prior dose of TECVAYLI [see Dosage and Administration (2.5)].

Prophylaxis for Herpes Zoster Reactivation

Prior to starting treatment with TECVAYLI, consider initiation of antiviral prophylaxis to prevent herpes zoster reactivation per guidelines.

If a dose of TECVAYLI is delayed, restart therapy based on the recommendations in Table 3 and resume the treatment schedule accordingly [see Dosage and Administration (2.2)]. Administer pretreatment medications as indicated in Table 3 [see Dosage and Administration (2.3)].

In Combination with Daratumumab and Hyaluronidase-fihj

The efficacy of TECVAYLI in combination with subcutaneous daratumumab and hyaluronidase-fihj compared with investigator's choice of either daratumumab and hyaluronidase-fihj, pomalidomide and dexamethasone (DPd) or daratumumab and hyaluronidase-fihj, bortezomib and dexamethasone (DVd) was evaluated in adult patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma in a randomized, open-label, multi-center study (MajesTEC-3) (NCT05083169). The study included patients who had previously received one to three prior lines of therapy including a proteasome inhibitor and lenalidomide. Patients who had received only one prior line of therapy must have been refractory to lenalidomide. Patients who had disease refractory to a prior anti-CD38 monoclonal antibody therapy, or who had received any prior BCMA-directed therapy were excluded.

Patients received TECVAYLI in combination with daratumumab and hyaluronidase-fihj as follows:

• Subcutaneous TECVAYLI step-up doses of 0.06 mg/kg and 0.3 mg/kg, followed by TECVAYLI 1.5 mg/kg once weekly from Weeks 2 to 8, then 3 mg/kg every two weeks from Weeks 9 to 24, then 3 mg/kg every four weeks starting on Week 25 until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity,
  
  AND
• Subcutaneous daratumumab and hyaluronidase-fihj 1,800 mg/30,000 units (1,800 mg of daratumumab and 30,000 units of hyaluronidase) starting one day prior to TECVAYLI and continuing once weekly from Weeks 1 to 8, then every two weeks from Weeks 9 to 24, then every four weeks starting on Week 25 until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity [see Dosage and Administration (2.2)].

The major efficacy outcome measure was progression-free survival (PFS) by Independent Review Committee (IRC) assessment based on International Myeloma Working Group (IMWG) 2016 criteria.

A total of 587 patients were randomized in MajesTEC-3: 291 to the TECVAYLI in combination with daratumumab and hyaluronidase-fihj group and 296 to the control group (DPd or DVd). The median age was 64 years (range: 25 to 88) with 38% aged 65 to 74 years and 10% aged 75 years or older; 55% were male; 65% were White, 6% were Black or African American, and 22% were Asian. The International Staging System (ISS) at screening was stage I in 63%, stage II in 29%, and stage III in 8%. High-risk cytogenetics (presence of del(17p), t(4;14) or t(14;16)) were present in 35% of patients. Extramedullary disease was present in 5% of patients.

The median number of prior lines of therapy was 2 (range: 1 to 3), with 38% who received one prior line of therapy. All patients received prior lenalidomide and 99.8% received a prior proteasome inhibitor; 84% were refractory to lenalidomide. Seventy-four percent of patients previously received autologous stem cell transplantation. Five percent of patients received a prior anti-CD38 monoclonal antibody; there is limited data with TECVAYLI in combination with daratumumab and hyaluronidase-fihj in patients who have received or are refractory to prior anti-CD38 monoclonal antibody therapy.

The trial demonstrated a statistically significant improvement in the TECVAYLI in combination with daratumumab and hyaluronidase-fihj group compared with the control group in PFS and overall survival (OS). The efficacy results are shown in Table 17 and Figures 1 and 2.

In the 15 patients in MajesTEC-3 who had received a prior anti-CD38 monoclonal antibody, the ORR was 93.3% (95% CI: 68.1, 99.8).

Monotherapy

The efficacy of TECVAYLI was evaluated in patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma in a single-arm, open-label, multi-center study (MajesTEC-1, NCT03145181 [Phase 1] and NCT04557098 [Phase 2]). The study included patients who had previously received at least three prior therapies, including a proteasome inhibitor, an immunomodulatory agent, and an anti-CD38 monoclonal antibody. The study excluded patients who had stroke, seizure, allogeneic stem cell transplantation within the past 6 months, Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance score of 2 or higher, known active CNS involvement or clinical signs of meningeal involvement of multiple myeloma, or active or documented history of autoimmune disease, with the exception of vitiligo, Type 1 diabetes, and prior autoimmune thyroiditis.

Patients received step-up doses of 0.06 mg/kg and 0.3 mg/kg of TECVAYLI followed by TECVAYLI 1.5 mg/kg subcutaneously once weekly thereafter until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity [see Dosage and Administration (2.2)].

The efficacy population included 110 patients. The median age was 66 (range: 33 to 82) years with 16% of patients 75 years of age or older; 56% were male; 91% were White, 5% were Black or African American, 3% were Asian. The International Staging System (ISS) at study entry was Stage I in 50%, Stage II in 38%, and Stage III in 12% of patients. High-risk cytogenetics (presence of del(17p), t(4;14) or t(14;16)) were present in 25% of patients. Seventeen percent of patients had extramedullary plasmacytomas. Patients with prior BCMA-targeted therapy were not included in the efficacy population.

The median number of prior lines of therapy was 5 (range: 2 to 14); 78% of patients had received at least 4 prior lines of therapy. Eighty-one percent of patients received prior stem cell transplantation. All patients had received prior therapy with a proteasome inhibitor, an immunomodulatory agent and an anti-CD38 monoclonal antibody, and 76% were triple-class refractory (refractory to a proteasome inhibitor, an immunomodulatory agent and an anti-CD38 monoclonal antibody).

Efficacy was established based on overall response rate (ORR) as determined by the Independent Review Committee (IRC) assessment using International Myeloma Working Group (IMWG) 2016 criteria (see Table 18).

The median time to first response was 1.2 months (range: 0.2 to 5.5 months). With a median follow-up of 7.4 months among responders, the estimated duration of response (DOR) rate was 90.6% (95% CI: 80.3%, 95.7%) at 6 months and 66.5% (95% CI: 38.8%, 83.9%) at 9 months.

Dosage reductions of TECVAYLI are not recommended.

Refer to daratumumab and hyaluronidase-fihj Prescribing Information for information about dosage modifications for daratumumab and hyaluronidase-fihj.

Dosage delays may be required to manage toxicities related to TECVAYLI [see Warnings and Precautions (5)].

See Tables 4, 5 and 6 for recommended actions for adverse reactions of CRS, neurologic toxicity, and ICANS. See Table 7 for recommended actions for other adverse reactions following administration of TECVAYLI.

Management of CRS, Neurologic Toxicity, and ICANS

Cytokine Release Syndrome

Management recommendations for cytokine release syndrome (CRS) are summarized in Table 4.

Identify CRS based on clinical presentation [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1)]. Evaluate and treat other causes of fever, hypoxia, and hypotension.

If CRS is suspected, withhold TECVAYLI until CRS resolves. Manage according to the recommendations in Table 4 and consider further management per current practice guidelines. Administer supportive therapy for CRS, which may include intensive care for severe or life-threatening CRS. Consider laboratory testing to monitor for disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC), hematology parameters, as well as pulmonary, cardiac, renal, and hepatic function.

Neurologic Toxicity and Immune Effector Cell-Associated Neurotoxicity Syndrome

Management recommendations for neurologic toxicity and immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity syndrome (ICANS) are summarized in Tables 5 and 6.

At the first sign of neurologic toxicity, including ICANS, withhold TECVAYLI and consider neurology evaluation. Rule out other causes of neurologic symptoms. Provide supportive therapy, which may include intensive care, for severe or life-threatening neurologic toxicities, including ICANS [see Warnings and Precautions (5.2)]. Manage ICANS according to the recommendations in Table 6 and consider further management per current practice guidelines.

TECVAYLI may cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant patient [see Use in Specific Populations (8.1)].

Pregnancy Testing

Verify pregnancy status of females of reproductive potential prior to initiating TECVAYLI.

TECVAYLI can cause both systemic administration-related reactions and local injection-site reactions.

Systemic Reactions

In patients who received the recommended TECVAYLI dosage in the clinical trials (monotherapy and combination therapy trials; N=448), 2.5% of patients experienced systemic-administration reactions, which included recurrent pyrexia and rash.

Local Reactions

In patients who received TECVAYLI at the recommended dosage in the clinical trials (monotherapy and combination therapy trials; N=448), injection-site reactions occurred in 37% of patients with Grade 1 injection-site reactions in 29% and Grade 2 in 9%.

Withhold TECVAYLI or consider permanent discontinuation of TECVAYLI based on severity [see Dosage and Administration (2.5)].

No carcinogenicity or genotoxicity studies have been conducted with teclistamab-cqyv.

No studies have been conducted to evaluate the effects of teclistamab-cqyv on fertility.

TECVAYLI can cause serious, life-threatening or fatal neurologic toxicity, including immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity syndrome (ICANS) [see Adverse Reactions (6.1)].

In the clinical trials (monotherapy and combination therapy trials; N=448), neurologic toxicity occurred in 60% of patients who received TECVAYLI at the recommended dosage, with Grade 3 or 4 neurologic toxicity in 6%. Neurologic toxicities reported in ≥5% of patients included headache (27%), sensory neuropathy (16%), motor dysfunction (15%), insomnia (12%), encephalopathy (11%), and dizziness (8%). Fatal neurologic toxicity occurred in 0.4% of patients, including Guillain-Barré syndrome and status epilepticus (one patient each).

In MajesTEC-1, ICANS was reported in 6% of patients who received TECVAYLI as monotherapy at the recommended dosage [see Adverse Reactions (6.1)]. Recurrent ICANS occurred in 1.8% of patients. Most patients experienced ICANS following step-up dose 1 (1.2%), step-up dose 2 (0.6%), or the initial treatment dose (1.8%). Less than 3% of patients developed first occurrence of ICANS following subsequent TECVAYLI doses. The median time to onset of ICANS was 4 days (range: 2 to 8 days) after the most recent TECVAYLI dose with a median duration of 3 days (range: 1 to 20 days). The most frequent clinical manifestations of ICANS reported were confusional state and dysgraphia.

In MajesTEC-3, ICANS was reported in 1.1% of patients who received the recommended TECVAYLI dosage in combination with daratumumab and hyaluronidase-fihj, including Grade 4 ICANS in 1 patient. All events of ICANS occurred during the step-up dosing schedule [see Adverse Reactions (6.1)]. The median time to onset of ICANS was 2 days (range: 1 to 3 days) after the most recent dose and the median duration of ICANS was 2 days (range: 1 to 2 days). The clinical manifestations of ICANS reported were amnesia, encephalopathy and delirium.

The onset of ICANS can be concurrent with CRS, following resolution of CRS, or in the absence of CRS.

Monitor patients for signs and symptoms of neurologic toxicity, including ICANS during TECVAYLI treatment. At the first sign of neurologic toxicity, including ICANS, immediately evaluate patient and provide supportive therapy based on severity. Withhold until neurologic toxicity resolves or permanently discontinue TECVAYLI based on severity per recommendations and consider further management per current practice guidelines [see Dosage and Administration (2.5)].

Due to the potential for neurologic toxicity, patients receiving TECVAYLI are at risk of depressed level of consciousness [see Adverse Reactions (6.1)]. Advise patients to refrain from driving or operating heavy or potentially dangerous machinery during and for 48 hours after completion of TECVAYLI step-up dosing schedule and in the event of new onset of any neurologic toxicity symptoms until neurologic toxicity resolves [see Dosage and Administration (2.1)].

TECVAYLI is available only through a restricted program under a REMS [see Warnings and Precautions (5.3)].

Cytokine release syndrome (CRS), including life-threatening or fatal reactions, can occur in patients receiving TECVAYLI. Initiate treatment with TECVAYLI step-up dosing schedule to reduce risk of CRS. Withhold TECVAYLI until CRS resolves or permanently discontinue based on severity [see Dosage and Administration (2.1 , 2.5) and Warnings and Precautions (5.1)].

Neurologic toxicity, including Immune Effector Cell-Associated Neurotoxicity Syndrome (ICANS) and serious, life-threatening, or fatal reactions, can occur in patients receiving TECVAYLI. Monitor patients for signs or symptoms of neurologic toxicity, including ICANS, during treatment. Withhold TECVAYLI until neurologic toxicity resolves or permanently discontinue based on severity [see Dosage and Administration (2.5) and Warnings and Precautions (5.2)].

Because of the risk of CRS and neurologic toxicity, including ICANS, TECVAYLI is available only through a restricted program under a Risk Evaluation and Mitigation Strategy (REMS) called the TECVAYLI and TALVEY REMS [see Warnings and Precautions (5.3)].

Risk Summary

Based on the mechanism of action, TECVAYLI may cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant patient [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.1)]. There are no available data on the use of TECVAYLI in pregnant patients to evaluate for a drug associated risk. No animal reproductive or developmental toxicity studies have been conducted with TECVAYLI. Teclistamab-cqyv causes T-cell activation and cytokine release; immune activation may compromise pregnancy maintenance. Human immunoglobulin G (IgG) is known to cross the placenta; therefore, teclistamab-cqyv has the potential to be transmitted from the mother to the developing fetus. Advise women of the potential risk to the fetus.

TECVAYLI is associated with hypogammaglobulinemia, therefore, assessment of immunoglobulin levels in newborns of mothers treated with TECVAYLI should be considered.

In the U.S. general population, the estimated background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage in clinically recognized pregnancies is 2% to 4% and 15% to 20%, respectively.

Risk Summary

There are no data on the presence of teclistamab-cqyv in human milk, the effect on the breastfed child, or the effects on milk production. Maternal IgG is known to be present in human milk. The effects of local gastrointestinal exposure and limited systemic exposure in the breastfed child to TECVAYLI are unknown. Because of the potential for serious adverse reactions in a breastfed child, advise women not to breastfeed during treatment with TECVAYLI and for 5 months after the last dose.

Teclistamab-cqyv, a bispecific B-cell maturation antigen (BCMA)-directed CD3 T-cell engager, is a humanized immunoglobulin G4-proline, alanine, alanine (IgG4-PAA) antibody. Teclistamab-cqyv is produced in Chinese Hamster Ovary (CHO) cells using recombinant DNA technology. Teclistamab-cqyv consists of an anti-BCMA heavy chain and light chain and an anti-CD3 heavy chain and light chain with two interchain disulfide bonds connecting the two arms. The molecular weight of teclistamab-cqyv is approximately 146 kDa.

TECVAYLI^® (teclistamab-cqyv) injection is a sterile, preservative-free, clear to slightly opalescent, colorless to light yellow solution supplied in a single-dose vial for subcutaneous administration.

Each TECVAYLI 3 mL single-dose vial contains 30 mg of teclistamab-cqyv, edetate disodium (0.054 mg), glacial acetic acid (0.72 mg), polysorbate 20 (1.2 mg), sodium acetate (2.7 mg), sucrose (240 mg), and Water for Injection, USP.

Each TECVAYLI 1.7 mL single-dose vial contains 153 mg of teclistamab-cqyv, edetate disodium (0.031 mg), glacial acetic acid (0.41 mg), polysorbate 20 (0.68 mg), sodium acetate (1.5 mg), sucrose (140 mg), and Water for Injection, USP.

TECVAYLI can cause severe, life-threatening, or fatal infections.

In MajesTEC-1 (N=165), in patients who received the recommended TECVAYLI dosage, serious infections, including opportunistic infections, occurred in 30% of patients, Grade 3 or 4 infections occurred in 35% of patients, and fatal infections occurred in 4.2% of patients [see Adverse Reactions (6.1)].

In MajesTEC-3 (N=283), in patients who received TECVAYLI in combination with daratumumab and hyaluronidase-fihj at the recommended dosage, serious infections, including opportunistic infections, occurred in 54% of patients, Grade 3 or Grade 4 infections occurred in 54% of patients and fatal infections occurred in 4.6% of patients [see Adverse Reactions (6.1)].

Monitor patients for signs and symptoms of infection prior to and during treatment with TECVAYLI and treat appropriately. Administer prophylactic antimicrobials according to current practice guidelines [see Dosage and Administration (2.3)].

Withhold TECVAYLI or consider permanent discontinuation of TECVAYLI based on severity [see Dosage and Administration (2.5)].

Monitor immunoglobulin levels prior to and during treatment with TECVAYLI and administer subcutaneous or intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) to maintain the serum levels >400 mg/dL.

TECVAYLI can cause neutropenia and febrile neutropenia. In patients who received TECVAYLI at the recommended dosage in the clinical trials (monotherapy and combination therapy trials; N=448), decreased neutrophils occurred in 88% of patients, with Grade 3 or 4 decreased neutrophils in 70%. Febrile neutropenia occurred in 6% of patients [see Adverse Reactions (6.1)].

Monitor complete blood cell counts at baseline and periodically during treatment and provide supportive care per local institutional guidelines.

Monitor patients with neutropenia for signs of infection.

Withhold TECVAYLI based on severity [see Dosage and Administration (2.5)].

The safety and efficacy of TECVAYLI have not been established in pediatric patients.

• Of the 165 patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma treated with TECVAYLI in MajesTEC-1 at the recommended dosage, 48% were 65 years of age or older, and 15% were 75 years of age or older. No overall differences in safety or effectiveness were observed between patients 65 to 74 years of age compared to younger patients. The study did not include a sufficient number of patients 75 years of age or older to assess whether there are differences in safety or effectiveness.
• Of the 291 patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma treated with TECVAYLI at the recommended dosage in combination with daratumumab and hyaluronidase-fihj in MajesTEC-3, 51% were younger than 65 years of age, 39% were 65 to 74 years of age, and 11% were 75 years of age or older. No overall differences in effectiveness were observed between patients 65 to 74 years of age compared to younger patients. The study did not include a sufficient number of patients 75 years of age or older to assess whether there are differences in effectiveness compared to younger patients. There was a higher incidence of serious adverse reactions in patients 75 years of age or older (83%) and in patients 65 to 74 years of age (77%) as compared to patients younger than 65 years of age (63%).

TECVAYLI can cause hepatotoxicity, including fatalities. There was one fatal case of hepatic failure in MajesTEC-1. In patients who received TECVAYLI at the recommended dosage in the clinical trials (monotherapy and combination therapy trials; N=448), elevated aspartate aminotransferase (AST) occurred in 47% of patients, with Grade 3 or 4 elevations in 2.9%. Elevated alanine aminotransferase (ALT) occurred in 48% of patients, with Grade 3 or 4 elevations in 3.8%. Elevated total bilirubin occurred in 10% of patients with Grade 3 or 4 elevations in 0.7%. Liver enzyme elevation can occur with or without concurrent CRS.

Monitor liver enzymes and bilirubin at baseline and during TECVAYLI treatment as clinically indicated. Withhold TECVAYLI or consider permanent discontinuation of TECVAYLI based on severity [see Dosage and Administration (2.5)].

The observed incidence of anti-drug antibodies is highly dependent on the sensitivity and specificity of the assay. Differences in assay methods preclude meaningful comparisons of the incidence of anti-drug antibodies in the studies described below with the incidence of anti-drug antibodies in other studies, including those of teclistamab-cqyv or of other teclistamab products.

Among patients treated with subcutaneous TECVAYLI at various dosages, anti-teclistamab-cqyv antibodies developed in 1/186 (0.5%) of patients who received monotherapy (up to 27 months) and in 2/379 (0.5%) of patients who received combination therapy with daratumumab and hyaluronidase-fihj (up to 43 months). Because of the low occurrence of anti-teclistamab-cqyv antibodies, the effect of these antibodies on the pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, safety, and/or effectiveness of teclistamab products is unknown.

None.

The following adverse reactions are also described elsewhere in the labeling:

• Cytokine Release Syndrome [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1)]
• Neurologic Toxicity including ICANS [see Warnings and Precautions (5.2)]
• Hepatotoxicity [see Warnings and Precautions (5.4)]
• Infections [see Warnings and Precautions (5.5)]
• Neutropenia [see Warnings and Precautions (5.6)]
• Hypersensitivity and Other Administration Reactions [see Warnings and Precautions (5.7)]

TECVAYLI causes release of cytokines [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.2)] that may suppress activity of certain cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes, resulting in increased exposure of CYP substrates, which may increase the risk of adverse reactions of the CYP substrates. The highest risk of drug-drug interaction is expected to occur after initiation of TECVAYLI step-up dosing schedule up to 7 days after the first treatment dose and during and after CRS [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1)].

Monitor for toxicity and/or concentrations of CYP substrates where minimal increases in concentration may lead to serious adverse reactions. Consider decreasing the dosage of the concomitant CYP substrate as needed.

Serum concentrations of cytokines (IL-6, IL-10, TNF-α, and IFN-γ) and IL-2R were measured before and after administration of step-up dose 1, step-up dose 2, and the three weekly doses of 1.5 mg/kg of TECVAYLI. Increased concentrations of IL-6, IL-10, and IL-2R were observed during this period.

The C_max and C_avg of teclistamab-cqyv after the first subcutaneous 1.5 mg/kg TECVAYLI dose increase proportionally over a dosage range of 0.08 mg/kg to 3 mg/kg in monotherapy (0.05 to 2 times the approved recommended treatment dosage). Following the recommended dosage of TECVAYLI monotherapy, 90% of steady state exposure was achieved after 12 weekly TECVAYLI doses (1.5 mg/kg once weekly). The mean accumulation ratio between the first and 13^th weekly dose of TECVAYLI 1.5 mg/kg was 4.2-fold for C_max, 4.1-fold for C_trough, and 5.3-fold for C_avg.

The pharmacokinetic characteristics of teclistamab-cqyv were consistent whether used as monotherapy or in combination with daratumumab and hyaluronidase-fihj. The C_max, C_trough, and C_avg of teclistamab-cqyv are presented in Table 16.

Absorption

The mean bioavailability of teclistamab-cqyv was 72% after subcutaneous administration of TECVAYLI. The median (range) T_max of teclistamab-cqyv after the first and 13^th TECVAYLI monotherapy treatment doses were 139 (19 to 168) hours and 72 (24 to 168) hours, respectively.

Distribution

The mean (coefficient of variation [CV]%) volume of distribution of teclistamab-cqyv was 5.63 L (29%).

Elimination

Teclistamab-cqyv clearance decreases over time, with a mean (CV%) maximal reduction from baseline to the 13^th weekly TECVAYLI monotherapy treatment dose of 40.8% (56%). The geometric mean (CV%) clearance is 0.472 L/day (64%) at the 13^th weekly TECVAYLI monotherapy treatment dose. Patients who discontinue TECVAYLI after the 13^th weekly monotherapy treatment dose are expected to have a 50% reduction from C_max in teclistamab-cqyv concentration at a median (5^th to 95^th percentile) time of 15 days (7 to 33 days) after T_max and a 97% reduction from C_max in teclistamab-cqyv concentration at a median time of 69 days (32 to 163 days) after T_max.

Specific Populations

There were no clinically significant differences in the exposure of teclistamab-cqyv based on age (24 to 84 years), sex, race (White, Black or African American), ethnicity (Hispanic/Latino, not Hispanic/Latino), mild or moderate renal impairment (estimated glomerular filtration rate [eGFR] by Modification of Diet in Renal Disease [MDRD] method: 30 to 89 mL/minute), or mild hepatic impairment (total bilirubin less than or equal to upper limit of normal [ULN] with AST greater than ULN or total bilirubin greater than 1 to 1.5 times ULN with any AST). The effects of severe renal impairment (eGFR less than 30 mL/minute) or moderate to severe hepatic impairment (total bilirubin greater than 1.5 times ULN with any AST) on the exposures of teclistamab-cqyv are unknown.

Body Weight

The volume of distribution and clearance of teclistamab-cqyv increase with increasing body weight (37.6 kg to 164 kg), supporting a weight-based dose.

Drug Interaction Studies

No clinical studies evaluating the drug interaction potential of teclistamab-cqyv have been conducted.

TECVAYLI is indicated for the treatment of adult patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma

• in combination with daratumumab and hyaluronidase-fihj in patients who have received at least one prior line of therapy, including a proteasome inhibitor and an immunomodulatory agent.
• as monotherapy, in patients who have received at least four prior lines of therapy, including a proteasome inhibitor, an immunomodulatory agent and an anti-CD38 monoclonal antibody.

Teclistamab-cqyv is a bispecific T-cell engaging antibody that binds to the CD3 receptor expressed on the surface of T-cells and B-cell maturation antigen (BCMA) expressed on the surface of multiple myeloma cells and some healthy B-lineage cells.

In vitro, teclistamab-cqyv activated T-cells, caused the release of various proinflammatory cytokines, and resulted in the lysis of multiple myeloma cells.

Based on its mechanism of action, TECVAYLI may cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant patient. Advise pregnant patients of the potential risk to the fetus. Advise females of reproductive potential to use effective contraception during treatment with TECVAYLI and for 5 months after the last dose [see Use in Specific Populations (8.1, 8.3)].

TECVAYLI is available only through a restricted program under a REMS called the "TECVAYLI and TALVEY REMS" because of the risks of CRS and neurologic toxicity, including ICANS [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1, 5.2)].

Notable requirements of the TECVAYLI and TALVEY REMS include the following:

• Prescribers must be certified with the REMS by enrolling and completing training.
• Prescribers must counsel patients receiving TECVAYLI about the risk of CRS and neurologic toxicity, including ICANS, and provide patients with Patient Wallet Card.
• Pharmacies and healthcare settings that dispense TECVAYLI must be certified with this REMS and must verify prescribers are certified through this REMS.
• Wholesalers and distributers must only distribute TECVAYLI to certified pharmacies or healthcare settings.

Further information about the "TECVAYLI and TALVEY REMS" is available at www.TEC-TALREMS.com or by telephone at 1-855-810-8064.

TECVAYLI can cause cytokine release syndrome (CRS), including life-threatening or fatal reactions [see Adverse Reactions (6.1)].

In the clinical trials (monotherapy and combination therapy trials; N=448), CRS occurred in 64% of patients who received TECVAYLI at the recommended dosage, with Grade 1 CRS occurring in 46% of patients, Grade 2 in 18%, and Grade 3 in 0.2%. Recurrent CRS occurred in 27% of patients. Most patients experienced CRS during the initial step-up dosing schedule (step-up dose 1 (37%), step-up dose 2 (32%), or the initial treatment dose (20%)). CRS first occurred following subsequent doses of TECVAYLI in 2.5% of patients. The median time to onset of CRS was 2 (range: 1 to 9) days after the most recent dose and the median duration of CRS was 2 (range: 1 to 22) days.

Clinical signs and symptoms of CRS included, but were not limited to, fever, hypoxia, chills, hypotension, sinus tachycardia, headache, and elevated liver enzymes (aspartate aminotransferase and alanine aminotransferase elevation).

Initiate therapy according to TECVAYLI step-up dosing schedule to reduce risk of CRS [see Dosage and Administration (2.1, 2.5)]. Administer pretreatment medications to reduce risk of CRS and monitor patients following administration of TECVAYLI accordingly [see Dosage and Administration (2.3, 2.5)].

At the first sign of CRS, immediately evaluate the patient for hospitalization. Administer supportive care based on severity and consider further management per current practice guidelines. Withhold until CRS resolves or permanently discontinue TECVAYLI based on severity [see Dosage and Administration (2.5)].

TECVAYLI is available only through a restricted program under a REMS [see Warnings and Precautions (5.3)].

Lactation: Advise not to breastfeed. (8.2)

Because clinical trials are conducted under widely varying conditions, adverse reaction rates observed in the clinical trials of a drug cannot be directly compared to rates in the clinical trials of another drug and may not reflect the rates observed in practice.

In Combination with Daratumumab and Hyaluronidase-fihj

The efficacy of TECVAYLI in combination with subcutaneous daratumumab and hyaluronidase-fihj compared with investigator's choice of either daratumumab and hyaluronidase-fihj, pomalidomide and dexamethasone (DPd) or daratumumab and hyaluronidase-fihj, bortezomib and dexamethasone (DVd) was evaluated in adult patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma in a randomized, open-label, multi-center study (MajesTEC-3) (NCT05083169). The study included patients who had previously received one to three prior lines of therapy including a proteasome inhibitor and lenalidomide. Patients who had received only one prior line of therapy must have been refractory to lenalidomide. Patients who had disease refractory to a prior anti-CD38 monoclonal antibody therapy, or who had received any prior BCMA-directed therapy were excluded.

Patients received TECVAYLI in combination with daratumumab and hyaluronidase-fihj as follows:

• Subcutaneous TECVAYLI step-up doses of 0.06 mg/kg and 0.3 mg/kg, followed by TECVAYLI 1.5 mg/kg once weekly from Weeks 2 to 8, then 3 mg/kg every two weeks from Weeks 9 to 24, then 3 mg/kg every four weeks starting on Week 25 until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity,
  
  AND
• Subcutaneous daratumumab and hyaluronidase-fihj 1,800 mg/30,000 units (1,800 mg of daratumumab and 30,000 units of hyaluronidase) starting one day prior to TECVAYLI and continuing once weekly from Weeks 1 to 8, then every two weeks from Weeks 9 to 24, then every four weeks starting on Week 25 until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity [see Dosage and Administration (2.2)].

The major efficacy outcome measure was progression-free survival (PFS) by Independent Review Committee (IRC) assessment based on International Myeloma Working Group (IMWG) 2016 criteria.

A total of 587 patients were randomized in MajesTEC-3: 291 to the TECVAYLI in combination with daratumumab and hyaluronidase-fihj group and 296 to the control group (DPd or DVd). The median age was 64 years (range: 25 to 88) with 38% aged 65 to 74 years and 10% aged 75 years or older; 55% were male; 65% were White, 6% were Black or African American, and 22% were Asian. The International Staging System (ISS) at screening was stage I in 63%, stage II in 29%, and stage III in 8%. High-risk cytogenetics (presence of del(17p), t(4;14) or t(14;16)) were present in 35% of patients. Extramedullary disease was present in 5% of patients.

The median number of prior lines of therapy was 2 (range: 1 to 3), with 38% who received one prior line of therapy. All patients received prior lenalidomide and 99.8% received a prior proteasome inhibitor; 84% were refractory to lenalidomide. Seventy-four percent of patients previously received autologous stem cell transplantation. Five percent of patients received a prior anti-CD38 monoclonal antibody; there is limited data with TECVAYLI in combination with daratumumab and hyaluronidase-fihj in patients who have received or are refractory to prior anti-CD38 monoclonal antibody therapy.

The trial demonstrated a statistically significant improvement in the TECVAYLI in combination with daratumumab and hyaluronidase-fihj group compared with the control group in PFS and overall survival (OS). The efficacy results are shown in Table 17 and Figures 1 and 2.

In the 15 patients in MajesTEC-3 who had received a prior anti-CD38 monoclonal antibody, the ORR was 93.3% (95% CI: 68.1, 99.8).

Monotherapy

The efficacy of TECVAYLI was evaluated in patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma in a single-arm, open-label, multi-center study (MajesTEC-1, NCT03145181 [Phase 1] and NCT04557098 [Phase 2]). The study included patients who had previously received at least three prior therapies, including a proteasome inhibitor, an immunomodulatory agent, and an anti-CD38 monoclonal antibody. The study excluded patients who had stroke, seizure, allogeneic stem cell transplantation within the past 6 months, Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance score of 2 or higher, known active CNS involvement or clinical signs of meningeal involvement of multiple myeloma, or active or documented history of autoimmune disease, with the exception of vitiligo, Type 1 diabetes, and prior autoimmune thyroiditis.

Patients received step-up doses of 0.06 mg/kg and 0.3 mg/kg of TECVAYLI followed by TECVAYLI 1.5 mg/kg subcutaneously once weekly thereafter until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity [see Dosage and Administration (2.2)].

The efficacy population included 110 patients. The median age was 66 (range: 33 to 82) years with 16% of patients 75 years of age or older; 56% were male; 91% were White, 5% were Black or African American, 3% were Asian. The International Staging System (ISS) at study entry was Stage I in 50%, Stage II in 38%, and Stage III in 12% of patients. High-risk cytogenetics (presence of del(17p), t(4;14) or t(14;16)) were present in 25% of patients. Seventeen percent of patients had extramedullary plasmacytomas. Patients with prior BCMA-targeted therapy were not included in the efficacy population.

The median number of prior lines of therapy was 5 (range: 2 to 14); 78% of patients had received at least 4 prior lines of therapy. Eighty-one percent of patients received prior stem cell transplantation. All patients had received prior therapy with a proteasome inhibitor, an immunomodulatory agent and an anti-CD38 monoclonal antibody, and 76% were triple-class refractory (refractory to a proteasome inhibitor, an immunomodulatory agent and an anti-CD38 monoclonal antibody).

Efficacy was established based on overall response rate (ORR) as determined by the Independent Review Committee (IRC) assessment using International Myeloma Working Group (IMWG) 2016 criteria (see Table 18).

The median time to first response was 1.2 months (range: 0.2 to 5.5 months). With a median follow-up of 7.4 months among responders, the estimated duration of response (DOR) rate was 90.6% (95% CI: 80.3%, 95.7%) at 6 months and 66.5% (95% CI: 38.8%, 83.9%) at 9 months.

Dosage reductions of TECVAYLI are not recommended.

Management of CRS, Neurologic Toxicity, and ICANS

Cytokine Release Syndrome

Management recommendations for cytokine release syndrome (CRS) are summarized in Table 4.

Identify CRS based on clinical presentation [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1)]. Evaluate and treat other causes of fever, hypoxia, and hypotension.

If CRS is suspected, withhold TECVAYLI until CRS resolves. Manage according to the recommendations in Table 4 and consider further management per current practice guidelines. Administer supportive therapy for CRS, which may include intensive care for severe or life-threatening CRS. Consider laboratory testing to monitor for disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC), hematology parameters, as well as pulmonary, cardiac, renal, and hepatic function.

Neurologic Toxicity and Immune Effector Cell-Associated Neurotoxicity Syndrome

Management recommendations for neurologic toxicity and immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity syndrome (ICANS) are summarized in Tables 5 and 6.

At the first sign of neurologic toxicity, including ICANS, withhold TECVAYLI and consider neurology evaluation. Rule out other causes of neurologic symptoms. Provide supportive therapy, which may include intensive care, for severe or life-threatening neurologic toxicities, including ICANS [see Warnings and Precautions (5.2)]. Manage ICANS according to the recommendations in Table 6 and consider further management per current practice guidelines.

TECVAYLI may cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant patient [see Use in Specific Populations (8.1)].

TECVAYLI can cause serious, life-threatening or fatal neurologic toxicity, including immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity syndrome (ICANS) [see Adverse Reactions (6.1)].

In the clinical trials (monotherapy and combination therapy trials; N=448), neurologic toxicity occurred in 60% of patients who received TECVAYLI at the recommended dosage, with Grade 3 or 4 neurologic toxicity in 6%. Neurologic toxicities reported in ≥5% of patients included headache (27%), sensory neuropathy (16%), motor dysfunction (15%), insomnia (12%), encephalopathy (11%), and dizziness (8%). Fatal neurologic toxicity occurred in 0.4% of patients, including Guillain-Barré syndrome and status epilepticus (one patient each).

In MajesTEC-1, ICANS was reported in 6% of patients who received TECVAYLI as monotherapy at the recommended dosage [see Adverse Reactions (6.1)]. Recurrent ICANS occurred in 1.8% of patients. Most patients experienced ICANS following step-up dose 1 (1.2%), step-up dose 2 (0.6%), or the initial treatment dose (1.8%). Less than 3% of patients developed first occurrence of ICANS following subsequent TECVAYLI doses. The median time to onset of ICANS was 4 days (range: 2 to 8 days) after the most recent TECVAYLI dose with a median duration of 3 days (range: 1 to 20 days). The most frequent clinical manifestations of ICANS reported were confusional state and dysgraphia.

In MajesTEC-3, ICANS was reported in 1.1% of patients who received the recommended TECVAYLI dosage in combination with daratumumab and hyaluronidase-fihj, including Grade 4 ICANS in 1 patient. All events of ICANS occurred during the step-up dosing schedule [see Adverse Reactions (6.1)]. The median time to onset of ICANS was 2 days (range: 1 to 3 days) after the most recent dose and the median duration of ICANS was 2 days (range: 1 to 2 days). The clinical manifestations of ICANS reported were amnesia, encephalopathy and delirium.

The onset of ICANS can be concurrent with CRS, following resolution of CRS, or in the absence of CRS.

Monitor patients for signs and symptoms of neurologic toxicity, including ICANS during TECVAYLI treatment. At the first sign of neurologic toxicity, including ICANS, immediately evaluate patient and provide supportive therapy based on severity. Withhold until neurologic toxicity resolves or permanently discontinue TECVAYLI based on severity per recommendations and consider further management per current practice guidelines [see Dosage and Administration (2.5)].

Due to the potential for neurologic toxicity, patients receiving TECVAYLI are at risk of depressed level of consciousness [see Adverse Reactions (6.1)]. Advise patients to refrain from driving or operating heavy or potentially dangerous machinery during and for 48 hours after completion of TECVAYLI step-up dosing schedule and in the event of new onset of any neurologic toxicity symptoms until neurologic toxicity resolves [see Dosage and Administration (2.1)].

TECVAYLI is available only through a restricted program under a REMS [see Warnings and Precautions (5.3)].

Cytokine release syndrome (CRS), including life-threatening or fatal reactions, can occur in patients receiving TECVAYLI. Initiate treatment with TECVAYLI step-up dosing schedule to reduce risk of CRS. Withhold TECVAYLI until CRS resolves or permanently discontinue based on severity [see Dosage and Administration (2.1 , 2.5) and Warnings and Precautions (5.1)].

Neurologic toxicity, including Immune Effector Cell-Associated Neurotoxicity Syndrome (ICANS) and serious, life-threatening, or fatal reactions, can occur in patients receiving TECVAYLI. Monitor patients for signs or symptoms of neurologic toxicity, including ICANS, during treatment. Withhold TECVAYLI until neurologic toxicity resolves or permanently discontinue based on severity [see Dosage and Administration (2.5) and Warnings and Precautions (5.2)].

Because of the risk of CRS and neurologic toxicity, including ICANS, TECVAYLI is available only through a restricted program under a Risk Evaluation and Mitigation Strategy (REMS) called the TECVAYLI and TALVEY REMS [see Warnings and Precautions (5.3)].
