Among patients with newly diagnosed high-risk multiple myeloma, treatment with BCMA/CD19 dual-targeting FasTCAR-T Cells resulted in an overall response rate of 100%, with all treated patients evaluable for minimal residual disease showing minimal residual disease negativity to 12 months.

Regis Peffault de Latour, MD, PhD, discusses the benefit observed with iptacopan vs standard-of-care eculizumab or ravulizumab in patients with paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria and residual anemia during the phase 3 APPLY-PNH trial.

Administration of cyclophosphamide, tacrolimus, and mycophenolate mofetil improved 1-year GVHD relapse-free survival compared with tacrolimus plus methotrexate in patients with hematologic malignancies undergoing reduced intensity conditioning allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation.

The CAR-T cell therapy ciltacabtagene autoleucel has expanded options for adult patients with relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma after 4 or more lines of prior therapy in the United States, and has continued to display promising efficacy in patients with multiple myeloma following early relapse.

Olverembatinib elicited encouraging responses and tolerability in US patients with ponatinib-resistant chronic myeloid leukemia, Philadelphia chromosome-positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia, and in patients with CML whose tumors have a T315I mutation.

Treatment with zanubrutinib (Brukinsa) reduced the risk of progression or death by 35% compared with ibrutinib (Imbruvica) for patients with relapsed or refractory chronic lymphocytic leukemia or small lymphocytic lymphoma.

Blinatumomab followed by consolidation chemotherapy led to a 58% reduction in the risk of death compared with standard consolidation chemotherapy alone in adult patients with newly diagnosed minimal residual disease–negative B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia.

Birtamimab demonstrated a significant survival benefit in patients with Mayo Stage IV amyloid light chain amyloidosis at month 9.

The use of frontline ibrutinib was associated with a longer time to next treatment compared with acalabrutinib in patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia.

Single-agent belantamab mafodotin continued to produce rapid, deep, and durable responses in patients with relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma.

Updated results from the ongoing phase 2 BGB-3111-215 trial showed that zanubrutinib provided clinically meaningful benefit to a large majority of efficacy-evaluable patients with B-cell malignancies who were intolerant to acalabrutinib.

Momelotinib elicited durable symptom, transfusion independence, and splenic responses through 48 weeks of treatment in patients with myelofibrosis who have anemia and previously received a JAK inhibitor.

The combination of belantamab mafodotin, pomalidomide, and dexamethasone elicited encouraging responses and survival benefits in patients with triple class–exposed or refractory multiple myeloma.

Mosunetuzumab demonstrated durable responses and a low rate of adverse events linked with treatment discontinuation in patients with relapsed/refractory follicular lymphoma, according to an updated analysis of the pivotal phase 2 GO29781 study.

Jeremy Abramson, MD, discusses the efficacy data of second-line lisocabtagene maraleucel vs standard-of-care salvage chemotherapy followed by autologous stem cell transplant from the phase 3 TRANSFORM trial done in patients with relapsed/refractory large B-cell lymphoma.

Low doses of lenalidomide prolonged time to and decreased the risk of transfusion dependency and induced quality clonal responses with no increases in progression rate or clonal evolution in patients with low-risk myelodysplastic syndrome.

Tisagenlecleucel produced durable responses in patients with relapsed/refractory follicular lymphoma, including those with high-risk disease characteristics.

Second-line treatment with lisocabtagene maraleucel (liso-cel; Breyanzi) reduced the risk of an event occurring by 64.4% compared with standard-of-care chemoimmunotherapy induction and autologous stem cell transplantation for patients with high-risk relapsed/refractory large B-cell lymphoma.

Ajay Chari, MD, discusses findings from the phase 1/2 MonumenTAL-1 trial investigating talquetamab in heavily pretreated patients with relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma.

Jesus G. Berdeja, MD, discusses the investigation of BMS-986393 in patients with relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma.

Patients receiving axicabtagene ciloleucel reported a temporary reduction in quality of life, followed by statistically significant improvements in overall QOL and symptoms within the first year of treatment for relapsed/refractory large B-cell lymphoma.

The addition of ibrutinib to standard chemoimmunotherapy induction followed by autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) and 2 years of maintenance ibrutinib significantly improved outcomes vs standard chemoimmunotherapy induction and ASCT alone for younger patients with mantle cell lymphoma.
