12. Clinical Pharmacology
Mechanism of Action

Elranatamab is a humanized bispecific IgG2 monoclonal antibody targeting BCMA on myeloma cells and CD3 on T cells. Similar to teclistamab, it redirects T cells to BCMA-expressing tumor cells, but uses a different IgG subclass and binding configuration.

Pharmacokinetics

Half-life: approximately 13 days at target dose. Step-up dosing reduces CRS risk. Steady-state by Cycle 4 with q2w maintenance. Non-linear PK due to target-mediated drug disposition.

14. Clinical Studies

Clinical efficacy and safety data supporting the approval are available in the full prescribing information and from the clinical trials listed below.
