TECVAYLI® is a bispecific antibody that uses innovative science to target BCMA and engage T-cells to activate the immune system1
TECVAYLI®
CD3
Immune Cell
BCMA
Cancer Cell
The CD3-targeting arm of TECVAYLI® binds to CD3 on the surface of the T-cell
The BCMA-targeting arm of TECVAYLI® binds to BCMA
on the surface of MM cells and some healthy
B-lineage cells
The binding of TECVAYLI® to both BCMA and CD3 leads to activation of T-cells, causing the release of various proinflammatory cytokines and resulting in the lysis of multiple myeloma cells
BCMA, B-cell maturation antigen; CD3, cluster of differentiation 3; MM, multiple myeloma.
