Latest Developments in Cellular Therapy for Multiple Myeloma
Abstract:
Overview
Novel drugs and continuous therapy have improved outcomes in patients with multiple myeloma (MM), however current therapies are largely non-curative with diminishing durations of response with subsequent therapies. Cellular therapies including chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cells have started to illustrate deeper and longer durations of relapse in the relapsed/refractory (RR) population. Current research seeks to expand on the durability of response, novel combinations and targets as well as the timing of CAR T in the treatment schema. This review summaries the updates in cellular therapy for MM.
