The impact of CAR-T therapy on the myeloma treatment landscape, patient selection for CAR-T & the evolving role of autoSCT

The introduction of CAR-T therapy has revolutionized the myeloma treatment landscape, offering a promising therapeutic approach for patients with relapsed/refractory (R/R) disease. There are currently two approved CAR-T cells in multiple myeloma: idecabtagene vicleucel (ide-cel) and ciltacabtagene autoleucel (cilta-cel), with ongoing studies exploring the possibility of bringing these agents into earlier lines of treatment.
