Updated Linvoseltamab Pivotal Data Demonstrated Strong Rates and Depth of Response in Patients with Heavily Pre-Treated Multiple Myeloma
“Multiple myeloma remains an incurable disease, in which patients endure cycles of relapse and remission, resulting in a critical need for innovative medicines,” said L. Andres Sirulnik, M.D., Ph.D., Senior Vice President, Translational and Clinical Sciences, Hematology at Regeneron. “With longer follow-up data on linvoseltamab, we’re seeing deep and durable responses with a complete response rate nearing 50% in a difficult-to-treat patient population who had received a median of 5 prior lines of therapy. Furthermore, in our trial, the regimen had a short monitoring time and a convenient, response-adapted administration schedule that enabled deep responders to go from every two-week to every four-week dosing. This regimen saved time for clinicians and patients, underscoring the potential for linvoseltamab as a patient-centric option in relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma.”
