Multiple Myeloma

A real-world study assessed treatment patterns and outcomes of elderly patients with lenalidomide-refractory multiple myeloma after 1 to 3 therapy lines.

Daratumumab would become the sole anti-CD38 agent available for all newly diagnosed multiple myeloma types if approved.

The absence of a PFS and OS benefit in the transplant arm was consistent across key subgroups in the phase 3 GMMG ReLApsE trial.

Daratumumab plus lenalidomide/dexamethasone for multiple myeloma showed improved 5-year health-related quality of life vs lenalidomide/dexamethasone alone.

Data highlight a need for randomized clinical trials to compare the efficacy and safety of VRD vs VTD in transplant-eligible multiple myeloma.

Despite prior relapses, 200 mg of linvoseltamab elicited complete responses or better in 49.6% of patients with relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma.

Phase 2 data support the use of a modified quadruplet regimen omitting dexamethasone after 2 cycles in elderly transplant-ineligible multiple myeloma.

Isatuximab plus bortezomib, lenalidomide, and dexamethasone demonstrated enhanced MRD-negativity rates and a PFS benefit in patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma.

Patient-reported outcomes from CARTITUDE-4 showed a median time to sustained worsening of symptoms of 23.7 months with cilta-cel and 18.9 months with standard of care.

Hematology oncology experts discuss recent developments in CAR T-cell therapies as well as bispecific therapies for the treatment of patients with R/R MM.

This segment examines Dr. Mikhael's approach to comparing ide-cel and cilta-cel for patient selection, emphasizing how patient traits, efficacy, and safety profiles influence treatment decisions across different groups.

Idecabtagene vicleucel led to high rates of MRD negativity in multiple myeloma who responded did not have complete responses to first-line therapy.

Data from a multiple myeloma mouse xenograft model demonstrated promising tumor regression activity from OPN-6602 monotherapy and in combination with standard of care agents.

During the 66th American Society of Hematology Annual Meeting and Exposition, experts in multiple myeloma gathered to discuss the impact of maintenance therapy and minimal residual disease (MRD) in patients with newly diagnosed transplant-eligible or -ineligible multiple myeloma.

Updated CARTITUDE-4 trial data show cilta-cel induces deep MRD negativity in patients with lenalidomide-refractory multiple myeloma.

This segment explores Dr. Rossi's clinical experience with cilta-cel as a second-line therapy, focusing on its efficacy and quality-of-life benefits across diverse patient populations.

This segment examines the evidence supporting cilta-cel in second-line therapy, highlighting key outcomes from the CARTITUDE trials and comparing them to other available second-line treatment options for multiple myeloma.

Panelists discuss how the treatment landscape for patients with transplant-ineligible/deferred newly diagnosed multiple myeloma (NDMM) is expected to evolve, with considerations for optimizing therapeutic approaches based on emerging data from novel drug combinations and treatment strategies.

Panelists discuss how frailty assessment influences treatment decisions in patients with transplant-ineligible newly diagnosed multiple myeloma (NDMM), particularly examining the IFM2017-03 study’s evaluation of a dexamethasone-sparing approach using daratumumab plus lenalidomide in frail patients.

Efficacy results from the phase 1/2 LINKER-MM1 trial evaluating linvoseltamab in relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma support the decision.

Hematologists gathered to discuss recent updates on bispecific antibodies surrounding patients with relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma.

A retrospective systemic literature review showed that increased lines of therapy led to decreased HRQOL in patients with relapsed/refractory myeloma.

This segment highlights the treatment journey of a 68-year-old IT professional with high-risk multiple myeloma, detailing progression after initial D-RVd therapy, refusal of ASCT, and successful transition to cilta-cel CAR-T therapy with manageable adverse events.

Findings from RedirecTT-1 show responses across different dose levels of talquetamab/teclistamab among those with multiple myeloma.

Clonal hematopoiesis may be associated with the early development of toxic events in patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma.
