Panelists discuss how early referral drop-off is driven by awareness gaps, outdated perceptions of when CAR T should be used, travel/caregiver burdens, and process complexity—and which barriers are most addressable.

Panelists discuss how real-world CAR T outcomes in older or comorbid patients can mirror trial results when organ function, monitoring, and multidisciplinary support are optimized.

Panelists discuss how sequencing choices before third-line CAR T balance disease control and eligibility preservation, while avoiding prolonged therapies that could compromise later collection or outcomes.

Panelists discuss how prior BCMA-directed or bispecific therapy may affect T-cell fitness and CAR T planning, including the value of early referral and strategic washout/bridging approaches when feasible.

Panelists discuss how clinicians distinguish candidates for second-line versus third-line CAR T by weighing disease aggressiveness, relapse timing, cytogenetic risk, patient preferences, and toxicity tradeoffs.

Panelists discuss how differences in BCMA-directed CAR T constructs (including binding configuration and expansion kinetics) can influence toxicity timing, monitoring needs, and real-world product selection.

Panelists discuss how pivotal trials and real-world evidence have reinforced CAR T-cell therapy’s high response rates, deep remissions, and durable outcomes in relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma.

Panelists discuss how evolving MRD-driven and immune-based therapies are shaping a personalized future for NDMM management.

Panelists discuss how infection prevention and selective IVIG use are critical for maintaining safety during NDMM combination therapy.

Panelists discuss how daratumumab plus KRd demonstrates manageable toxicity and strong real-world feasibility with appropriate supportive care.

Panelists discuss how ADVANCE findings support the use of quadruplet therapy in both transplant-eligible and -ineligible patients with NDMM.

Panelists discuss how ADVANCE results show daratumumab-based quadruplets achieve high MRD negativity across risk and age groups in NDMM.

Panelists discuss how the ADVANCE trial’s inclusive design and MRD-based end points make it a model for future NDMM research.

Panelists discuss how the ADVANCE study was structured to determine whether adding daratumumab to KRd enhances depth and durability of response in NDMM.

Panelists discuss how comprehensive diagnostic and functional pretesting ensures safe and effective initiation of quadruplet therapy in NDMM.

Panelists discuss how risk stratification using cytogenetic and molecular markers is vital to tailoring NDMM therapy and improving long-term outcomes.

Panelists discuss how quadruplet therapy has become the new benchmark for NDMM, offering deeper and more durable responses than previous triplet regimens.
