Sponsor: Janssen Research & Development, LLC

Sponsor score: 60

ClinicalTrials ID:NCT07589634

This clinical trial is testing whether a single dose of tocilizumab can help prevent or lessen the severity of cytokine release syndrome (CRS) when given before the treatment ramantamig in patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma.

Patient Parameters

Program Overview

The aim of this study is to determine if giving tocilizumab before starting treatment with ramantamig can prevent or reduce the severity of cytokine release syndrome (CRS) in patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma. CRS is a reaction that can happen during treatment, causing symptoms like fever and tiredness. The study will compare the effects of tocilizumab with a placebo over a period of 28 days.
