At ASH 2024 in San Diego, we had the pleasure of presenting the MagnetisMM-20 data. This is the Phase Ib study combining elranatamab, the BCMA CD3 bispecific antibody with carfilzomib and dexamethasone. We have seen how these bispecific antibodies work very well as single agents. The first data suggests over 60 plus percent of patients with an overall response. But we all know that combinations with different drugs is usually how myeloma is best treated for long, durable, successful patients...
At ASH 2024 in San Diego, we had the pleasure of presenting the MagnetisMM-20 data. This is the Phase Ib study combining elranatamab, the BCMA CD3 bispecific antibody with carfilzomib and dexamethasone. We have seen how these bispecific antibodies work very well as single agents. The first data suggests over 60 plus percent of patients with an overall response. But we all know that combinations with different drugs is usually how myeloma is best treated for long, durable, successful patients. So what’s the optimal partner drug for a BCMA CD3 bispecific antibody? The MagnetisMM-20 study used, as I mentioned, carfilzomib. The Phase Ib data was presented by my colleague, Dr. Michael Thomason, and I was the senior author for the presentation. Overall response rates are 100%. So it doesn’t get better than 100%. If you look at the CR rates, the complete response rates, it was 75%. And the VGPR rates are better, over 91%. So very impressive efficacy results. Looking at safety, there was really no new safety signal from what we have seen and compared to prior studies using carfilzomib or using elranatamab. So there was no new interactions or triggering of anything that we had not seen before. So overall, I would say this is a success. The study is a Phase Ib study. So it’s a step up dosing and the cohorts are quite small. So what needs to happen next is expanding the numbers and to have longer follow up. And that will happen in the coming future.
