Authorised
This medicine is authorised for use in the European Union.

Overview

Talvey is a cancer medicine used to treat adults with multiple myeloma (a cancer of the bone marrow) when the cancer has come back (relapsed) and has not responded to treatment (refractory).

It is used in patients who have received at least three previous therapies, including an immunomodulatory agent, a proteasome inhibitor and an anti-CD38 antibody, and whose disease has worsened since the last treatment.

Multiple myeloma is rare, and Talvey was designated an ‘orphan medicine’ (a medicine used in rare diseases) on 20 August 2021. Further information on the orphan designation can be found on the EMA website.

Talvey contains the active substance talquetamab.
