Target Audience
This activity is intended for hematologists, medical oncologists, hematology-oncology fellows and other healthcare providers involved in the treatment of multiple myeloma (MM).

Learning Objectives
Upon completion of this activity, participants should be able to

• Customize the use of induction, consolidation and maintenance therapeutic approaches for MM in the transplant and nontransplant settings, considering patient- and disease-related factors, including cytogenetic profile.
• Appreciate available clinical trial data documenting the efficacy of monoclonal antibody therapy directed at CD38 as a component of induction therapy, and effectively identify whether and how this strategy should be integrated into the clinical care of patients eligible or ineligible for stem cell transplant.
• Recognize published research data validating the use of minimal residual disease (MRD) status as a mechanism to assess response to active therapy and to identify disease recurrence, and use this information to determine the potential role of MRD assays in the protocol and off-protocol management of MM.
• Consider published research findings and other clinical factors in the best-practice selection, sequencing or combination of available therapies in the nonresearch care of patients with relapsed/refractory MM.
• Develop an understanding of the mechanism of action of and available data with recently FDA-approved novel therapies to facilitate their integration into MM management algorithms.
• Appreciate available data documenting the activity of chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapy, bispecific T-cell engagers and antibody-drug conjugates designed to target B-cell maturation antigen, and use this knowledge to identify patients with MM who may be appropriate for these therapeutic approaches.
• Assess ongoing clinical trials evaluating novel investigational approaches for MM, and obtain consent from appropriate patients for study participation.
