a study of teclistamab in combination with daratumumab subcutaneously (sc) (tec-dara) versus daratumumab sc, pomalidomide, and dexamethasone (dpd) or daratumumab sc, bortezomib, and dexamethasone (dvd) in participants with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma

Conditions: Multiple Myeloma

Summary: the purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy of teclistamab daratumumab (tec-dara) with daratumumab subcutaneously (sc) in combination with pomalidomide and dexamethasone (dpd) or daratumumab sc in combination with bortezomib and dexamethasone (dvd).
