You can use the MQSC REST API to create a topic. For example - do a HTTP/S POST to your MQ WebServer URL: http://<MQ webserver host>:<port>/ibmmq/rest/v3/admin/action/qmgr/<qmname>/mqsc with the following body:

{
  "type": "runCommand",
  "parameters": {
    "command": "def topic(RESTTOPIC) topicstr(RESTTOPIC)"
  }
}

This will create a topic for you.

Start your MQ WebServer using strmqweb and note down the REST API URL using dspmqweb command. Replace the URL in my example given above.

See here for more details.
