What is Talvey (talquetamab-tgvs) used for?
Talvey (talquetamab-tgvs) is a prescription treatment for adult patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma who have previously received at least four different therapies, including a proteasome inhibitor, an immunomodulatory drug, and an anti-CD38 monoclonal antibody.¹

Talvey is administered as a subcutaneous injection and is available in 3 mg/1.5 mL or 40 mg/mL dosage forms.¹

How does Talvey (talquetamab-tgvs) work?
Talvey is a bispecific antibody that simultaneously targets two key molecules:

  • GPRC5D, a protein found in high levels on multiple myeloma cells, and
  • CD3, a receptor on T cells—the immune cells responsible for attacking cancer.
    By binding both targets, Talvey brings T cells into close contact with cancer cells, triggering the T cells to attack and destroy the malignant cells.³

Where is Talvey (talquetamab-tgvs) approved?
Talvey received accelerated approval from the U.S. FDA.² In the United States, its use is restricted under the TECVAYLI and TALVEY REMS program due to the risks of Cytokine Release Syndrome (CRS) and neurologic toxicity.⁴
