Mezigdomide has shown promising antitumor activity in combination with dexamethasone in a phase 1/2 trial comprising patients with relapsed and refractory multiple myeloma.
Response-adapted treatment algorithms have the potential to allow an individualised treatment strategy – maximising efficacy, while minimising toxicities and cost – in newly diagnosed multiple myeloma.
Treatment with ciltacabtagene autoleucel significantly extends progression-free survival relative to standard of care in people with lenalidomide-refractory multiple myeloma who have received up to three prior lines of therapy.
A 56-year-old woman with relapsed multiple myeloma developed early-onset but highly reversible leukoencephalopathy during treatment with daratumumab –the authors describe the case.

Antibody–drug conjugates (ADCs) are novel agents that have shown promise across multiple tumor types. Explore the current landscape of ADCs in breast and lung cancer with our experts, and gain insights into the mechanism of action, key clinical trials data, existing challenges, and future directions.
Minimal (Measurable) Residual Disease (MRD) in multiple myeloma (MM) refers to the disease burden that remains following therapeutic intervention that may be detectable by highly sensitive assays. It has emerged as one of the strongest prognostic …
Venous thromboembolism (VTE) poses a significant challenge in the context of multiple myeloma, with an incidence of up to 10% in newly diagnosed patients and varying frequency in the relapsed/refractory setting. Accurate VTE risk assessment and …
Despite the development of various therapeutic agents, multiple myeloma remains incurable. Recently, T-cell redirected immunotherapy has become a promising strategy for the treatment of refractory myeloma. Clinical trials using chimeric antigen …
Improvement in the therapeutics for multiple myeloma (MM) has been continuously developed owing to the application of novel drugs and technologies in the last 20 years. The standard first-line therapy for MM consists of a three-drug induction …
Take on interactive case studies with a focus on hematology. Each case has been prepared by renowned experts in the field and features knowledge-check questions with answers to help keep you and your practice up to date.
Multiple myeloma (MM), the second most common hematological malignancy, is an incurable clonal plasma cell dysplasia, which mainly occurs in the elderly population (Liu et al. 2019 ). In past decades, with the emerging novel agents and laboratory …
Patients diagnosed with lymphoma or multiple myeloma are at elevated risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE). Optimum risk stratification and effective thromboprophylaxis can only be achieved through the development of a multiple-specific risk score …
Minimal (Measurable) Residual Disease (MRD) in multiple myeloma (MM) refers to the disease burden that remains following therapeutic intervention that may be detectable by highly sensitive assays. It has emerged as one of the strongest prognostic …
Evidences shows that T helper 17 (Th17) and regulatory T (Treg) cells imbalance plays a critical role in bone lesions of MM patients. Therefore, regulating the Th17/Treg imbalance may be beneficial for bone lesions in MM. Ten MM mice complicated …
