The purpose of this study is to examine the safety, efficacy and feasibility of the use of one standard dose of siltuximab prior to teclistamab infusion. Siltuximab is an investigational (experimental) drug that works by binding directly to human interleukin-6 (IL-6). IL-6 is a cytokine; these are products that are secreted by certain cells of the immune system and effect other cells in participant's body. IL-6 regulates immune, inflammatory and metabolic processes. Siltuximab has already been tested and approved for use by the FDA in participants with a condition called multicentric Castleman's disease, which is a lymphoproliferative disorder. This study is being conducted to investigate if administration of a single dose of siltuximab will reduce the rates of and severity of Cytokine Release Syndrome (CRS) and Immune effector Cell-Associated Neurotoxicity Syndrome (ICANS) in participants prior to teclistamab administration. CRS and ICANS are adverse effects commonly experienced by participants being treated with teclistamab that are related to inflammation in the body. Siltuximab is experimental because it is not approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for prophylactic use prior to administration of teclistamab infusion.

Study Type
An interventional clinical study is where participants are assigned to receive one or more interventions (or no intervention) so that researchers can evaluate the effects of the interventions on biomedical or health-related outcomes. An observational clinical study is where participants identified as belonging to study groups are assessed for biomedical or health outcomes. Searching Both is inclusive of interventional and observational studies. |

Trial ID:
This trial id was obtained from ClinicalTrials.gov, a service of the U.S. National Institutes of Health, providing information on publicly and privately supported clinical studies of human participants with locations in all 50 States and in 196 countries. |
NCT06352866 |
Phase
Phase 1: Studies that emphasize safety and how the drug is metabolized and excreted in humans. Phase 2: Studies that gather preliminary data on effectiveness (whether the drug works in people who have a certain disease or condition) and additional safety data. Phase 3: Studies that gather more information about safety and effectiveness by studying different populations and different dosages and by using the drug in combination with other drugs. Phase 4: Studies occurring after FDA has approved a drug for marketing, efficacy, or optimal use. |
