Abstract: The present invention relates to methods for administering therapeutic doses of bispecific T-cell engaging molecules for the treatment of cancer in a patient. The administration methods reduce the incidence and/or severity of adverse events, such as cytokine release syndrome, and entail administering to a patient a priming dose of the bispecific T-cell engaging molecule by continuous intravenous infusion over a period of days followed by administration of a therapeutic dose of the bispecific T-cell engaging molecule by a bolus intravenous infusion at dosing intervals of at least a week.
