Have an ECOG performance status score of 0 to 2. 7. Clinical laboratory values meeting the criteria as defined in the protocol during the Screening Phase and within 3 calendar days prior to the first dose 8. A female participant of childbearing potential must have a negative highly sensitive serum pregnancy test within 10 to 14 days prior to C1D1 and again either serum or urine pregnancy test within 24 hours to the start of study treatment and must agree to further serum or urine pregnancy tests during the study. 9. A female participant must be either of the following: a. Not of childbearing potential, or b. Of childbearing potential and practicing at least 2 effective methods of contraception simultaneously, including 1 highly effective method of contraception (details in the protocol). Contraception must begin 4 weeks prior to dosing, continue during study treatment, including during dose interruptions, and through 6 months after the last dose of study treatment. 10. A female participant must agree not to donate eggs (ova, oocytes) or freeze for future use, for the purposes of assisted reproduction during the study and for a period of 6 months after receiving the last dose of study treatment. Female participants should consider preservation of eggs prior to study treatment as anticancer treatments may impair fertility. 11. A male participant must wear a condom (with or without spermicidal foam/gel/film/cream/suppository) when engaging in any activity that allows for passage of ejaculate to another person during the study and for a minimum of 3 months after receiving the last dose of study treatment If a male participant’s partner is a female of childbearing potential, the male participant must use condoms (with or without spermicide) and the female partner of the male participant must also be practicing a highly effective method of contraception. 12. A male participant must agree not to donate sperm for the purpose of reproduction during the study and for a period of 3 months after receiving the last dose of study treatment. Male participants should consider preservation of sperm prior to study treatment as anticancer treatments may impair fertility. 13. A female participant must agree not to be pregnant, breast-feeding, or plan to become pregnant while enrolled in this study or within 6 months after the last dose of study treatment. 14. A male participant must agree not to plan to father a child while enrolled in this study or within 3 months after the last dose of study treatment. 15. Must be willing and able to adhere to the lifestyle restrictions specified in protocol.

Any potential participant who meets any of the following criteria will be excluded from participating in the study: 1. Received any prior BCMA-directed therapy 2. Contraindications or life-threatening allergies, hypersensitivity, or intolerance to any study drug or its excipients (refer to the teclistamab Investigator’s Brochure and appropriate prescribing information). Additional exclusion criteria pertaining to specific study drugs include: a. A participant is not eligible to receive PVd as control therapy if any of the following are present: - Received prior pomalidomide therapy. - Does not meet criteria for bortezomib retreatment (failure to achieve at least PR to prior bortezomib treatment, or progression by IMWG criteria on therapy or within 6 months after cessation of prior bortezomib treatment). - Contraindications or life-threatening allergies, hypersensitivity, or intolerance to pomalidomide or bortezomib (intolerance defined as prior therapy discontinued due to any AE related to pomalidomide or bortezomib). - Grade 1 peripheral neuropathy with pain or Grade ≥2 peripheral neuropathy as defined by NCI-CTCAE Version 5.0 - Received a strong CYP3A4 inducer within 5 half-lives prior to randomization. b. A participant is not eligible to receive Kd as control therapy if any of the following are present: - Received prior carfilzomib therapy. - Uncontrolled hypertension, defined as an average systolic blood pressure >159 mmHg or diastolic blood pressure >99 mmHg despite optimal treatment (measured following European Society of Hypertension/European Society of Cardiology 2018 guidelines (Williams 2018). - Grade 2 peripheral neuropathy with pain or Grade ≥3 peripheral neuropathy as defined by NCI-CTCAE Version 5.0 - Contraindications or life-threatening allergies, hypersensitivity, or intolerance to carfilzomib (intolerance defined as prior therapy discontinued due to any AE related to carfilzomib). 3.

Live, attenuated vaccine within 4 weeks of randomization or if participant plans to receive such vaccines during the study.

If either is suspected, negative whole brain MRI and lumbar cytology are required. 7.

Unstable angina or New York Heart Association class III or IV congestive heart failure (Appendix 11) b. Myocardial infarction or coronary artery bypass graft ≤6 months prior to randomization c. History of clinically significant ventricular arrhythmia or unexplained syncope, not believed to be vasovagal in nature or due to dehydration d. Uncontrolled cardiac arrhythmia or clinically significant ECG abnormalities e. TTE or MUGA scan showing left ventricular ejection fraction <40%. 11. Participant had major surgery or had significant traumatic injury within 2 weeks prior to randomization, or will not have fully recovered from surgery, or has major surgery planned during the time the participant is expected to be treated in the study. 13. Seropositive for hepatitis B: defined by a positive test for HbsAg. 14. Active hepatitis C infection as measured by positive HCV-RNA testing. 15. Human immunodeficiency virus-positive with 1 or more of the following: a. History of AIDS-defining conditions b. CD4 count <350 cells/mm3 c. Detectable viral load during screening or within 6 months prior to screening d. Not receiving highly active antiretroviral therapy e. Had a change in antiretroviral therapy within 6 months of the start of screening f. Receiving antiretroviral therapy that may interfere with study treatment as assessed after discussion with the sponsor. 16. Any condition for which, in the opinion of the investigator, participation would not be in the best interest of the participant (eg, compromise the well-being) or that could prevent, limit, or confound the protocol-specified assessments.
