Myeloma drugs tested for home use: could cut hospital stays
NCT ID NCT05972135
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This phase 2 trial is testing whether two drugs, teclistamab and talquetamab, can be given safely in an outpatient setting for people with multiple myeloma. The study will enroll 100 participants who have already tried other treatments. The main goal is to see how often side effects like cytokine release syndrome (CRS) occur when preventive medicines are used, with the hope of making treatment more convenient.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- Teclistamab or Talquetamab (drugs given as shots under the skin)
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could allow multiple myeloma patients to receive these powerful drugs safely as outpatients, reducing time in the hospital.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, early-phase study (100 people) focused on safety and side effects, not yet on cure. Side effects like cytokine release syndrome (CRS) are still a risk, even with preventive medicines.
