Ajay K. Nooka, MD, Associate Professor of Hematology and Medical Oncology at Emory School of Medicine, discusses the updated efficacy and safety results from the phase 1/2 MajesTEC-1 study evaluating teclistamab in patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma.

Multiple myeloma is a rare blood cancer associated with uncontrolled growth of plasma cells. Abnormal plasma cells – also known as myeloma cells – interfere with the production of healthy blood cells in the bone marrow. Symptoms of multiple myeloma may include: bone pain (particularly in the chest and spine), frequent infections, weakness or numbness in the legs, fatigue, confusion, excessive thirst, and constipation. While the disease is treatable, relapses are common and some patients are refractory to first line, and subsequent, therapies.
