New drug linvoseltamab takes on multiple myeloma in early trial
NCT ID NCT05828511
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests an experimental drug called linvoseltamab in people newly diagnosed with multiple myeloma, a type of blood cancer. The drug is designed to help the immune system attack cancer cells. The trial will check for side effects and see if the drug can shrink tumors. About 149 participants will take part, some before and after a stem cell transplant.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- linvoseltamab (a bispecific antibody that targets BCMA on myeloma cells and CD3 on immune cells)
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could provide a new treatment option for newly diagnosed multiple myeloma, potentially improving response rates and depth of remission.
- What could go wrong
- This is an early-phase trial (Phase 1/2) with a small number of participants, so safety and effectiveness are not yet proven. Side effects, including immune reactions, are possible.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.
Key Inclusion Criteria: 1. Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0, 1, or 2 2. Confirmed diagnosis of symptomatic Multiple Myeloma (MM) by International Myeloma Working Group (IMWG) diagnosis criteria, as described in the protocol 3. Response-evaluable myeloma, according to the 2016 IMWG response criteria, as defined in the protocol 4. No prior therapy for MM, with the exception of prior emergent or palliative radiation and up to 1 month of single-agent corticosteroids, with washout periods as per the protocol 5. Participants must have evidence of adequate bone marrow reserves and hepatic, renal and cardiac function as defined in the protocol 6. Participants must be age \<70 and have adequate hepatic, renal, pulmonary and cardiac function to be considered transplant-eligible. The specific thresholds for adequate organ function are as per institutional guidance. Key Exclusion Criteria: 1. Receiving any concurrent investigational agent with known or suspected activity against MM, or agents targeting the A proliferation-inducing ligand (APRIL)/ Transmembrane activator and calcium modulator and cyclophilin ligand interactor (TACI)/BCMA axis 2. Known Central Nervous System (CNS) involvement with MM, known or suspected Progressive Multifocal Leukoencephalopathy (PML), a history of neurocognitive conditions, or CNS movement disorder, or history of seizure within 12 months prior to study enrollment 3. Rapidly progressive symptomatic disease, (e.g. progressing renal failure or hypercalcemia not responsive to standard medical interventions), in urgent need of treatment with chemotherapy 4. Diagnosis of non-secretory MM, active plasma cell leukemia primary light-chain (AL) amyloidosis, Waldenström macroglobulinemia (lymphoplasmacytic lymphoma), or known POEMS syndrome (Plasma cell dyscrasia with polyneuropathy, Organomegaly, Endocrinopathy, Monoclonal protein, and Skin changes) Note: Other protocol-defined Inclusion/Exclusion criteria apply
