Linvoseltamab is Regeneron's BCMA bispecific, approved in July 2025 with the highest complete-response rate of the class in its pivotal study.
Linvoseltamab is a fully human IgG4 BCMAxCD3 bispecific antibody built on Regeneron's Veloci-Bi platform, given intravenously with step-up dosing and moved to every-4-week dosing in patients who respond. In LINKER-MM1, patients with at least 3 prior lines including an anti-CD38 antibody had ORR 70% and CR or better 45%, the highest complete response rate of the BCMA bispecific class in a pivotal study. The FDA granted accelerated approval on 2 July 2025 after at least 4 prior lines, and the EU approved it in 2025. LINKER-MM3, comparing it with elotuzumab-pomalidomide-dexamethasone, is the confirmatory phase 3. Its place alongside teclistamab and elranatamab, which reached the market earlier, depends on whether the deeper responses and less frequent dosing hold up. It is the third BCMA bispecific for myeloma, notable for how many patients reach complete remission.

Fully human IgG4 BCMA×CD3 bispecific (Veloci-Bi), IV with step-up. Connects to BCMA and CD3.

Given by infusion or injection in a clinic or hospital outpatient department, so it is a Part B drug: Medicare pays 80% after the Part B deductible and the patient owes 20% coinsurance, uncapped in Original Medicare unless a Medigap policy applies. Step-up dosing is often started in hospital (Part A) because of cytokine release syndrome monitoring, then continued in the outpatient setting. FDA-approved 2025.
Covered under the medical benefit with prior authorisation confirming diagnosis, biomarker status and line of therapy; site-of-care policies may steer infusions away from hospital outpatient departments.
20% Part B coinsurance on a high-cost infusion adds up quickly: Medigap Plan G or N, Medicare Advantage maximum out-of-pocket, Medicaid dual eligibility, or a charity fund are the usual buffers.
