The Multiple Myeloma Workshop: Exploring the Convergence of Novel Therapeutic Platforms, Cell Therapy and ASCT

In this new multiple myeloma (MM) CME program, two leading myeloma experts discuss key questions and controversies arising from the rapid validation of novel therapeutics for patients with MM who are autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) eligible. Although the use of ASCT remains a core therapeutic modality for MM, using ASCT in conjunction with innovative treatment options—including CAR-T cell therapy, proteasome inhibitors, immunomodulators, and antibodies such as, CD38 antibodies, BCMA-targeting antibody-drug conjugates, and bispecific antibodies—can substantially improve outcomes. These improvements have been observed across the continuum of care, from primary therapy to the management of relapsed/refractory disease (post-ASCT), as well as in the setting of minimal residual disease eradication. Hear our expert panel as they highlight these improvements and discuss the integration of approved and emerging novel therapies in MM.
