use of elranatamab in patients with high-risk smoldering multiple myeloma

Conditions: Smoldering Multiple Myeloma

Summary: this is a multicenter, single arm, open-label, phase 2 study in high risk smoldering myeloma patients. the primary objective is to determine the efficacy of elranatamab in patients with previously untreated high-risk smm. the key-secondary objective is to determine the safety of elranatamab in patients with previously untreated high-risk smm.
