A Study to Compare Linvoseltamab Monotherapy and Linvoseltamab + Carfilzomib Combination Therapy With Standard-of-Care Combination Regimens in Adult Participants With Relapsed/Refractory Multiple Myeloma (RRMM)

This study is researching a drug called linvoseltamab (also called "study drug") either given alone or in combination with another anti-myeloma drug called carfilzomib, compared to several standard treatments for progressive Multiple Myeloma (MM) after at least 1 but no more than 3 prior therapies.

The aim of this study is to see if the safety and efficacy of linvoseltamab alone or in combination with carfilzomib can deliver better outcomes (deeper and longer responses that help extend life) than standard treatment options.

The study is looking at several other research questions, including:

* What side effects may happen from taking the study drug * How much study drug is in the blood at different times * Whether the body makes antibodies against the study drug (which could make the drug less effective or could lead to side effects)

    Time frame: Up to 5 years

    Part 2 The EQ-5D-5L is a generic questionnaire that measures HRQoL across 5 dimensions of health (mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort and anxiety/depression) across 5 levels (no problems, slight problems, some problems, severe problems and extreme problems) and a VAS of pain (where 0: no pain and 10: worst pain), higher scores indicate higher pain.

  36. Change in patient-reported overall impact of treatment per Functional Assessment of Chronic Illness Therapy (FACIT) item GP5

    Part 2 FACIT Item GP5 is a recommended item by the Federal Drug Administration (FDA) in its recent draft guidance for cancer trials to assess patient-reported overall impact of treatment toxicity. It uses a single item "I am bothered by side effects of treatment" on a 5-point scale (0= not at all, 1= a little bit, 2= somewhat, 3= quite a bit, 4= very much)
