WHAT TALVEY IS AND WHAT IT IS USED FOR Talvey is a cancer medicine that contains the active substance talquetamab. Talquetamab is an antibody, a type of protein that recognises and attaches to specific targets in your body. It has been designed to attach to the protien GPRC5D (G Protein-coupled receptor family C group 5 member D), which is found on multiple myeloma cancer cells, and to CD3, a protein on T cells (a type of white blood cell). T cells are a part of the body’s natural defences and help protect the body from infection. They can also destroy cancer cells. When this medicine attaches to these cells, it brings the cancer cells and T cells together. This encourages the T cells to destroy the multiple myeloma cancer cells. Talvey is used to treat adults with multiple myeloma, a cancer of the bone marrow. It is used when patients have had at least three other types of treatment that have not worked or have stopped working. 2.
