A medical expert shares her treatment approach for a high-risk multiple myeloma patient, considering transplant eligibility, dose escalations, and maintenance therapy based on induction regimen and patient risk factors.

Caitlin Costello, MD, shares insights on the role of minimal residual disease (MRD) assessment in the multiple myeloma treatment process, including its impact on induction therapy and disease monitoring.

A medical expert discusses tailoring treatment strategies for standard-risk and high-risk multiple myeloma patients, considering patient characteristics and transplant eligibility when selecting treatment combinations.

Caitlin Costello, MD, explores the evolving role of biomarkers in the early diagnosis and treatment of multiple myeloma, highlighting their impact on the changing landscape of the disease.

Registered nurses discuss research related to agents like ciltacabtagene autoleucel presented at the 2024 Oncology Nursing Society Congress.

Nurses should be educated on cranial nerve impairment that may affect those with multiple myeloma who receive cilta-cel, says Leslie Bennett, MSN, RN.

Treatment with cilta-cel may give patients with multiple myeloma “more time,” according to Ishmael Applewhite, BSN, RN-BC, OCN.

Nurses may need to help patients with multiple myeloma adjust to walking differently in the event of peripheral neuropathy following cilta-cel.

Findings from the CARTITUDE-2 trial support the use of cilta-cel in patients with multiple myeloma, says Tina Glow, AAS, RN, BSN.

The latest CARTITUDE-4 data examine the efficacy and safety of ciltacabtagene autoleucel in lenalidomide-refractory multiple myeloma.

Patients enrolled across the CARTITUDE trials who experienced cranial nerve palsy after treatment with cilta-cel were generally male.

Findings from the phase 3 CARTITUDE-4 trial support the European approval of ciltacabtagene autoleucel for relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma.

Drs Costello and Pianko close their discussion by sharing advice for clinicians administering bispecifics to their patients with relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma.

Experts discuss key data on the outpatient management of teclistamab.

Matthew Pianko, MD, explains how patients with relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma are monitored for CRS and ICANS.

Caitlin Costello, MD, shares her thoughts on administering teclistamab to patients with relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma in an outpatient setting.

Key opinion leaders discuss how bispecifics are administered at their institutions.

Experts review how the treatment landscape for relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma shifted with the addition of bispecifics, and the currently approved bispecifics available.

The expert panel provides closing remarks on exciting developments in the evolving treatment landscape in multiple myeloma.

Minimal residual disease can now be considered an end point in trials leading to accelerated approvals by the FDA for multiple myeloma.

Tiffany Richards, PhD, ANP-BC, and the rest of the panel offer clinical advice on the care of patients with multiple myeloma who are receiving talquetamab.

Beth Faiman, PhD, MSN, describes the role of a GRPC5D-targeting bispecific antibody, talquetamab, in the treatment of patients with relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma.

Investigators also look to assess linvoseltamab in relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma as part of the phase 3 LINKER-MM3 trial.

The FDA has approved ciltacabtagene autoleucel for the treatment of adult patients with relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma who have received at least 1 prior line of treatment, including a proteasome inhibitor and an immunomodulatory agent, and are refractory to lenalidomide.
