Summary for Physicians:
Future Research Priorities:
- Optimizing tarlatamab administration:
- Investigate dose optimization and scheduling to maximize efficacy while minimizing toxicity.
- Explore combination therapies with other immunotherapies or targeted agents for synergistic effects.
- Toxicity management:
- Develop predictive biomarkers for early detection of cytokine release syndrome and immune effector cell–associated neurotoxicity syndrome.
- Improve management protocols to reduce the incidence of severe toxicities.
- Investigate strategies to minimize neurological and immune-related adverse events without compromising efficacy.
Long-Term Goals:
- Enhance patient selection strategies to identify those most likely to benefit from tarlatamab.
Evaluate long-term safety and effectiveness in real-world settings.
