Bispecific antibodies offer an off-the-shelf treatment approach for patients with heavily pretreated myeloma. GPRC5D-directed therapies are novel agents that are associated with high response rates and a unique safety profile. Community oncologists should be aware of these toxicities and how best to manage them. This article provides expert guidance on the identification, monitoring, and management of treatment-emergent adverse events related to GPRC5D-directed therapies.
