Indirect comparison of linvoseltamab versus teclistamab for triple-class exposed (TCE) relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM).

Abstract

7560 Background: No head-to-head clinical trials have compared effectiveness of anti-BCMA×CD3 bispecific antibodies for TCE RRMM. This analysis compared efficacy of linvoseltamab vs teclistamab via an unanchored matching-adjusted indirect comparison (MAIC). Methods: A MAIC was deemed feasible after excluding 10 patients (pts) with prior BCMA antibody–drug conjugate exposure from LINKER-MM1 (linvoseltamab) to match MajesTEC-1 (teclistamab) criteria. Pt-level data from LINKER-MM1 (107 pts receiving 200 mg in Phase 1/2, data cut-off [DCO] 9/2023, median follow-up 11.1 months [mos]) and published data from MajesTEC-1’s efficacy population (150 pts, DCO 11/2021, median follow-up 9.8 mos) were analyzed. LINKER-MM1 pts were weighted to match key baseline characteristics in MajesTEC-1 (cytogenetic risk, age, refractory status, ISS stage, ECOG score, extramedullary disease/plasmacytoma status) selected via a prespecified algorithm (Kumar et al., 2023). Objective response rate (ORR), very good partial response or better (≥VGPR), complete response or better (≥CR), and minimal residual disease (MRD) negativity (- [at 10-5 threshold]) rates, duration of response (DOR), progression-free survival (PFS), and overall survival (OS) were compared. Odds ratios (ORs) and hazard ratios (HRs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were reported before and after matching; a sensitivity analysis included all LINKER-MM1 200 mg pts (n=117). Results: Effective sample size for linvoseltamab was 82 after matching and baseline characteristics were balanced with MajesTEC-1. Before and after matching, linvoseltamab exhibited higher ORR, ≥VGPR, ≥CR, and MRD(-) rates, with significant differences in ≥CR. Linvoseltamab had significantly longer PFS and a trend toward longer OS and DOR (Table). Sensitivity analysis results were similar. Conclusions: The results suggest potentially greater efficacy for linvoseltamab vs teclistamab for all outcomes, highlighting its potential as a highly effective treatment option for TCE RRMM.
