Published data from the Phase III KarMMa-3 and CARTITUDE-4 trials of ide-cel and cilta-cel, respectively, in earlier lines of treatment; overall survival findings from CARTITUDE-4
FDA approvals of ide-cel and cilta-cel in earlier settings; identification of patients appropriate for CAR T-cell therapy and optimal sequencing with regard to other evidence-based approaches
Spectrum, incidence and severity of acute and long-term toxicities with BCMA-directed CAR T-cell therapy in patients with MM; appropriate monitoring and management algorithms
Rationale for the evaluation of CAR T-cell platforms with novel targets and/or manufacturing processes for R/R MM
Early data with the GPRC5D-targeted CAR T-cell therapy arlocabtagene autoleucel for R/R MM; FDA regenerative medicine advanced therapy designation and ongoing evaluation
Preliminary efficacy and safety results from the Phase Ib/II DURGA-1 study of AZD0120, a BCMA/CD19 dual-targeting CAR T-cell therapy using the FasTCAR rapid manufacturing platform, for R/R MM; future development plans
Preliminary data and ongoing clinical research with other novel CAR T-cell platforms for R/R MM
MODULE 2: Integrating Bispecific Antibodies into the Management of R/R MM
Similarities and differences in the cellular targets and mechanisms of action of the various bispecific antibodies used for MM
Efficacy and safety findings leading to the FDA approvals of the BCMA-directed bispecific antibodies teclistamab, elranatamab and linvoseltamab for heavily pretreated MM; optimal incorporation into current management algorithms

Key efficacy and safety data with the GPRC5D-targeted bispecific antibody talquetamab for heavily pretreated disease; optimal selection of patients for this agent
Biological rationale for and published findings with the FcRH5-directed bispecific antibody cevostamab in the treatment of R/R MM
Optimal selection of patients with R/R MM for BCMA- and non-BCMA-targeted bispecific antibodies; considerations guiding the sequencing of these agents relative to other strategies and each other

Emerging findings from the Phase III EXCALIBER-RRMM study indicating an improvement in minimal residual disease negativity rates with iberdomide/daratumumab/dexamethasone compared to daratumumab/bortezomib/dexamethasone for patients with R/R MM
Other ongoing studies evaluating CELMoD-containing therapy for newly diagnosed and R/R MM; potential clinical role of CELMoDs
Spectrum, frequency and severity of AEs observed with CELMoDs in published clinical studies; comparative tolerability profiles of iberdomide, mezigdomide and traditional IMiDs
Target Audience
This activity is intended for medical oncologists, hematologists, hematology-oncology fellows and other healthcare providers involved in the treatment of multiple myeloma.
Learning Objectives
Upon completion of this activity, participants should be able to
Consider published research findings and other clinical factors in the best-practice sequencing of established and novel agents and regimens for patients with relapsed/refractory (R/R) multiple myeloma (MM).
Evaluate published research findings to identify patients with R/R MM for whom treatment with chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapy directed at B-cell maturation antigen (BCMA) should be considered and/or recommended.
Assess available research data with BCMA- and non-BCMA-directed bispecific antibodies for MM in order to appropriately integrate these agents into clinical algorithms.
Recall presented clinical research establishing the definitive efficacy of BCMA-directed antibody-drug conjugate therapy for patients with R/R MM.
Analyze the mechanism of action of, published and emerging efficacy and safety findings with and ongoing research evaluating cereblon E3 ligase modulators to prepare for the potential clinical availability of these agents for patients with R/R MM.
Implement a plan of care to recognize and manage class-effect and agent-specific toxicities associated with therapies commonly used in the care of patients with R/R MM.
Recall available data with novel agents and strategies currently under investigation for R/R MM, and as applicable, discuss clinical trial participation with eligible patients.
