Myeloma

One expert explains why double autologous stem cell transplantation is a viable alternative to back-to-back transplant in high-risk multiple myeloma.

Data show that patients’ multiple myeloma still fails to progress if patients receive less-frequent Tecvayli.

Increased awareness and support may be one of the many ways to help decrease the impact of disparities in multiple myeloma.

As part of the CURE® Educated Patient® Summit, one expert reviewed the landscape of bispecific antibodies, such as Tecvayli, for multiple myeloma.

Quality of life may temporarily worsen after patients with myeloma receive stem cell transplants, said an expert at the Educated Patient® Multiple Myeloma Summit.

When I told my friends and family I have multiple myeloma, some of them didn't know what to do.

New drug combinations and sequences are being investigated and may improve outcomes for patients with newly diagnosed myeloma, an expert explained at the Educated Patient® Multiple Myeloma Summit.

Data from the MajesTEC-1 trial shows that patients with relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma responded to Tecvalyi for a median of two years and lived without disease progression for nearly a year.

Sarclisa, Velcade, Revlimid and dexamethasone improved progression-free survival in patients with multiple myeloma who were not eligible for transplant.

Belamaf plus bortezomib and dexamethasone lengthened the time patients with relapsed or refractory myeloma lived before their disease got worse.

Blenrep, Pomalyst and dexamethasone improved progression-free survival compared to Velcade, Pomalyst and dexamethasone in patients with relapsed/refractory myeloma.

Sarclisa was granted a priority review by the Food and Drug Administration for patients newly diagnosed with multiple myeloma who are ineligible for blood transplants.

Here’s a look at therapies the FDA approved in the blood cancer space over the last few months.

Using tests to identify minimal residual disease may help determine how much treatment patients with multiple myeloma require.

Tecvayli responses were found to be slightly lower in patients with relapsed/refractory myeloma treated with another BCMA-targeted therapy.

I need to acknowledge and address the impact stress from multiple myeloma has on my mental and emotional wellbeing.

For patients with lymphoma or multiple myeloma, speaking up about symptoms of cytokine release syndrome can be lifesaving.

With Carvykti now approved for pretreated myeloma, there are conversations that patients should have with their providers before treatment, a nurse said.

Patients with heavily pretreated myeloma tended to have “really amazing results” with the CAR-T cell therapy, Carvykti.

After cancer, I've been learning to maintain a positive attitude regarding my self-image and rehabilitation.

The Food and Drug Administration approved the CAR-T cell therapy, Carvykti, for previously treated patients with multiple myeloma.

The Food and Drug Administration approved Abecma for adults with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma who have received two or more previous lines of therapy.

There is no difference in treatment for non-secretory multiple myeloma and multiple myeloma, an expert told CURE®.

Of everything I've ever done, I wonder how my multiple myeloma came to be.

An FDA committee voted that the benefits of Carvykti outweigh the risks for myeloma treatment, though concerns about secondary malignancies remain.
