Safety and efficacy of elranatamab in patients with relapsed and/or refractory immunoglobulin light-chain amyloidosis.

abstractImmunoglobulin light-chain (AL) amyloidosis is a plasma cell disorder characterized by progressive organ dysfunction secondary to deposition of organized immunoglobulin light-chain aggregates. Achievement of rapid and deep normalization of involved immunoglobulin free light chains is necessary to maximize chances of reversibility of organ dysfunction, which, in turn, results in improved quality and length of life. There are no US Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved therapies for patients with relapsed AL amyloidosis. B-cell maturation antigen-targeting (BCMA)-bispecific T-cell engagers teclistamab and elranatamab have shown high activity and acceptable safety profile in patients with relapsed and/or refractory multiple myeloma, leading to their FDA approval. Herein, we report on safety and efficacy of elranatamab for patients with relapsed and/or refractory AL amyloidosis. We treated 9 consecutive patients with advanced-stage AL amyloidosis with single-agent elranatamab, observing a 100% overall response and 67% complete response rate, including minimal residual disease negativity, with expected toxicities. Median time to hematological response was 9 days (range, 6-24), with deep suppression in involved free light chains observed within 1 cycle of therapy, translating in cardiac and renal responses at 3 to 6 months. These data support prospective studies exploring elranatamab for patients with relapsed AL amyloidosis.
