ASH 2023 | A Phase I study of WVT078, a BCMA×CD3 bsAb, with a gamma-secretase inhibitor (WHG626) in R/R MM

Fredrik Schjesvold, MD, PhD, Oslo University Hospital, Oslo, Norway, discusses the early results of a Phase I dose-escalation study (NCT04123418) of WVT078, a BCMAxCD3 bispecific antibody (bsAb), combined with the gamma-secretase (GS) inhibitor WHG626, in patients with relapsed/refractory (R/R) multiple myeloma (MM). Pre-clinical in vitro investigations found that WHG626 enhanced the anti-myeloma activity of WVT078, likely by eliminating the shedding of soluble BCMA from MM cells to prevent it from interfering with BCMA-targeting agents, and pharmacodynamic biomarker analysis from this Phase I study confirmed this mechanism of action. This interview took place at the 65th ASH Annual Meeting and Exposition, held in San Diego, CA.
