Methods: Patients enrolled in MajesTEC-1 received subcutaneous teclistamab at the recommended phase 2 dose of 1.5 mg/kg weekly (QW) after step-up dosing, with the option to switch to the Q2W schedule if they achieved a partial response or better after ≥4 cycles (phase 1) or ≥CR for ≥6 months (phase 2). Teclistamab PK following less frequent dosing (1.5 mg/kg Q2W) was assessed using a population PK approach. E–R analysis was performed for duration of response (DOR), progression-free survival (PFS), and overall survival (OS) based on individual estimated serum trough concentration (Ctrough) after the first Q2W dose in the 63 patients who switched to the 1.5 mg/kg Q2W dosing schedule. A QSP model was used to generate a virtual RRMM population with sustained response for ≥6 cycles to estimate the impact of teclistamab dose switching (QW to Q2W) on TBE complex formation (simultaneous engagement of target antigen on MM cells [BCMA; T] and effector antigen on T cells [CD3; E] by the bispecific antibody [teclistamab; B]) and antitumor activity. Additionally, teclistamab PK metrics were estimated for the approved 1.5 mg/kg Q2W dosing schedule and 3 mg/kg monthly (Q4W) dosing based on simulation of the teclistamab population PK model.
Results: The median predicted teclistamab Ctrough was lower after the first and fourth Q2W doses (14.4 and 11.7 µg/mL, respectively) than that prior to the first Q2W dose (20.4 µg/mL) but remained above the 90% maximal effective concentration (6.039 µg/mL). No statistically significant E–R relationship was observed for DOR, PFS, or OS in patients switching to Q2W dosing, suggesting that the range of exposure observed in the 63 patients who switched to Q2W dosing did not lead to a difference in maintenance of response. The QSP model estimated comparable TBE complex formation, tumor volume reduction, and DOR for responders who switched to Q2W vs those who remained on QW dosing. Based on PK simulations, teclistamab exposure (steady-state PK parameters [Ctrough, maximum concentration, and area under the curve]) at the 3 mg/kg Q4W dose was estimated to be comparable with that of the 1.5 mg/kg Q2W dose.
Conclusions: These modeling and simulation results from the MajesTEC-1 study support the approved switch to teclistamab 1.5 mg/kg Q2W in patients who have maintained ≥CR for ≥6 months. Furthermore, results from the population PK model indicate that teclistamab PK at the approved 1.5 mg/kg Q2W dosing schedule is comparable with that at 3 mg/kg Q4W.
