BCMA/CD3 Bispecific Antibody as Bridging Therapy Before CAR-T Cell Infusion in RRMM

Official title

A Prospective Single-Arm, Single-Center Study of BCMA/CD3 Bispecific Antibody as Bridging Therapy Before CAR-T Cell Infusion in Relapsed or Refractory Multiple Myeloma

Overview

This study is a prospective, single-arm, multicenter trial designed to evaluate the hematologic response rate and safety of BCMA/CD3 bispecific antibody bridging therapy prior to CAR-T cell infusion in patients with relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM).

Interventions

• Biological CM336 (BCMA/CD3 bispecific antibody)
  CM336 is a BCMA × CD3 bispecific antibody.

Primary outcome measures

• Overall Response Rate (ORR) [Time frame: Minimum 2 years after infusion]
• Safety and Tolerability [Time frame: Minimum 2 years after infusion]

Secondary outcome measures (4)

• Time to Response (TTR) [Time frame: Minimum 2 years after infusion.]
• Duration of Response (DOR) [Time frame: Minimum 2 years after infusion]
• Overall Survival (OS) [Time frame: Minimum 2 years after infusion]
• Progression-Free Survival (PFS) [Time frame: Minimum 2 years after infusion]
