Abstract
Bispecific antibodies (BsAbs) have emerged as crucial therapeutic agents for patients with relapsed/refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, multiple myeloma, and most recently, lung cancer. These therapies have demonstrated remarkable efficacy in clinical trials; however, multidisciplinary collaboration is essential to ensure optimal patient outcomes amid the operational complexities associated with BsAb therapy. As BsAbs are being prepared for broader adoption, clinicians and treatment centers must navigate operational challenges, including financial considerations, patient selection, caregiver involvement, and transitions of care. Centers must also be knowledgeable to manage toxicities such as cytokine release syndrome and immune effector cell–associated neurotoxicity syndrome. We therefore convened a panel of academic and community practice pharmacists with experience using BsAbs in clinical trial and standard-of-care settings to provide comprehensive recommendations with a focus on successful onboarding and operationalization of BsAb therapies.
