Instruct patients to remain within proximity of a healthcare facility and monitored daily for 48 hours after the first treatment dose within the TECVAYLI step-up dosing schedule. ( 2.1 ) See Full Prescribing Information for the recommended dosage for TECVAYLI monotherapy and combination therapy. ( 2.2 , 2.3 ) Administer pretreatment medications as recommended. ( 2.3 ) Refer to Tables 8, 9, 10, and 11 to determine the total dose, injection volume, and number of vials based on the patient's body weight. ( 2.6 ) See Full Prescribing Information for instructions on preparation and administration. ( 2.6 ) 2.1 Important Dosage and Administration Information TECVAYLI is for subcutaneous injection only. Administer pretreatment medications prior to each dose of the TECVAYLI step-up dosing schedule, which includes step-up dose 1, step-up dose 2, and the first treatment dose as described in Tables 1 and 2 [see Dosage and Administration (2.3) ] . Administer TECVAYLI subcutaneously according to the step-up dosing schedule in Tables 1 and 2 to reduce the incidence and severity of cytokine release syndrome (CRS). Due to the risk of CRS and neurologic toxicity, including ICANS, patients should be hospitalized for 48 hours after administration of both step-up dose 1 and step-up dose 2. Instruct patients to remain within proximity of a healthcare facility and monitor them daily for 48 hours after the first treatment dose within the TECVAYLI step-up dosing schedule [see Dosage and Administration (2.5) and Warnings and Precautions (5.1 , 5.2) ] . Refer to Tables 8, 9, 10, and 11 to determine the dosage based on predetermined weight ranges [see Dosage and Administration (2.6) ] . 2.2 Recommended TECVAYLI Dosage In Combination with Daratumumab and Hyaluronidase-fihj The recommended dosing schedule for TECVAYLI in combination with subcutaneous daratumumab and hyaluronidase-fihj is provided in Table 1. TECVAYLI should be administered until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Table 1: TECVAYLI Dosage Schedule in Combination with Daratumumab and Hyaluronidase-fihj Dosing schedule Week/Day TECVAYLI Dosage See Table 3 for recommendations on restarting TECVAYLI after dose delays. Concomitant Therapy Day 0 N/A Daratumumab and hyaluronidase-fihj Step-up dosing schedule The Step-up dosing schedule is a component of the recommended TECVAYLI dosage but is not applicable for the daratumumab and hyaluronidase-fihj dosing.

N/A Day 3 Step-up dose 2 (0.3 mg/kg) Step-up dose 2 may be given between 2 to 4 days after step-up dose 1 and if adverse reactions occur, step-up dose 2 may be given up to 7 days after step-up dose 1 to allow for resolution of adverse reactions. N/A Day 7 First treatment dose (1.5 mg/kg) First treatment dose (1.5 mg/kg) may be given between 2 to 4 days after step-up dose 2 and if adverse reactions occur, first full treatment dose may be given up to 7 days after step-up dose 2 to allow for resolution of adverse reactions. , Administer TECVAYLI at least 3 hours after the daratumumab and hyaluronidase-fihj dose for the first treatment dose. For subsequent doses, administer TECVAYLI at least 15 minutes after the daratumumab and hyaluronidase-fihj dose. Daratumumab and hyaluronidase-fihj Weekly dosing schedule Weeks 2 to 8 1.5 mg/kg once weekly , Maintain a minimum of 5 days between 1.5 mg/kg once weekly doses.

Monitoring
- • 5 WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS Hepatotoxicity : Can cause hepatotoxicity, including fatalities.
- • Monitor liver enzymes and bilirubin at baseline and during treatment as clinically indicated.
- • Withhold TECVAYLI or consider permanent discontinuation of TECVAYLI based on severity ( 2.5 , 5.4 ) Infections : Can cause severe, life-threatening, or fatal infections.
- • Monitor patients for signs and symptoms of infection and treat appropriately.
Interaction Notes
- • 7 DRUG INTERACTIONS TECVAYLI causes release of cytokines [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.2) ] that may suppress activity of certain cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes, resulting in increased exposure of CYP substrates, which may increase the risk of adverse reactions of the CYP substrates.
- • The highest risk of drug-drug interaction is expected to occur after initiation of TECVAYLI step-up dosing schedule up to 7 days after the first treatment dose and during and after CRS [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1) ] .
- • Monitor for toxicity and/or concentrations of CYP substrates where minimal increases in concentration may lead to serious adverse reactions.
- • Consider decreasing the dosage of the concomitant CYP substrate as needed.
