                            Panelists discuss how the step-up dosing strategy for talquetamab involves graduated dose escalation from 0.01 to 0.06 mg/kg before reaching therapeutic levels to minimize severe cytokine release syndrome, with real-world data showing 85% to 86% of patients can safely receive outpatient step-up dosing, though one patient’s inpatient experience was chosen due to her drug allergies and travel distance considerations.
