Talquetamab for Relapsed or Refractory Multiple Myeloma

This study is testing a drug called talquetamab in people with multiple myeloma (a type of blood cancer) that has come back or not responded to previous treatments. Talquetamab will be given as an injection under the skin until your disease gets worse. The main goal is to see how many people respond to the treatment, measured for up to 2 years and 10 months. You may be able to join if you are 18 or older, have a confirmed diagnosis of multiple myeloma, and your disease can be measured by lab tests. The study is currently recruiting about 510 participants.
