Multiple Myeloma

On September 11, 2023, the FDA approved motixafortide (Aphexda; BioLineRx) subcutaneous injection, a hematopoietic stem cell mobilizer, for use in combination with the granulocyte colony-stimulating factor filgrastim (Neupogen; Amgen), to mobilize HSCs to the peripheral blood for collection and subsequent autologous stem cell transplantation in patients with multiple myeloma. Motixafortide is the first novel stem cell mobilizer in a decade to receive FDA approval for multiple myeloma. Read More ›

On August 14, 2023, the FDA accelerated the approval of elranatamab-bcmm (Elrexfio; Pfizer), a bispecific B-cell maturation antigen–directed CD3 T-cell engager, for the treatment of adults with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma who have received at least 4 previous lines of therapy, including a proteasome inhibitor, an immunomodulatory drug, and an anti-CD38 monoclonal antibody.

On August 9, 2023, the FDA accelerated the approval of talquetamab-tgvs (Talvey; Janssen Biotech), a bispecific GPRC5D-directed CD3 T-cell engager, for the treatment of adults with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma who have previously received at least 4 lines of therapy, including a proteasome inhibitor, an immunomodulatory drug, and an anti-CD38 monoclonal antibody.

This edition of Year in Review is focused on multiple myeloma (MM), a disease for which the treatment landscape has seen tremendous growth resulting in major favorable changes in patient outcomes. New treatments have been approved and novel classes of agents continue to be investigated, particularly in the relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM) setting. We are providing this Year in Review series to disseminate the latest information on treatment advances in 2022 to clinicians in a timely and effective manner. Read More ›

Preliminary data support the use of BMS-986393 in patients with RRMM despite prior BCMA-directed therapy. Read More ›

A phase 1 trial of GC012F demonstrated an overall response rate of 100% in high-risk, transplant-eligible patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma. Read More ›

Updated results from the IKEMA trial show a superior benefit with isatuximab + carfilzomib and dexamethasone versus carfilzomib and dexamethasone alone in patients with RRMM. Read More ›

Results from cohort A of MagnetisMM-3 showed promising efficacy and a tolerable safety profile with elranatamab in RRMM patients naïve to BCMA-targeted treatment. Read More ›

Results of patient-reported outcomes from the GRIFFIN study showed improved health-related quality of life in patients with NDMM with the addition of daratumumab to lenalidomide, bortezomib, and dexamethasone. Read More ›

Results from the IFM2017-03 trial showed that a dexamethasone-sparing regimen of daratumumab (Darzalex) plus lenalidomide (Revlimid; DR) was superior to lenalidomide plus dexamethasone (Rd) in terms of response rates and rates of minimal residual disease (MRD) negativity in frail patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma.
