In this episode, we discuss with Dr. Martin Kaiser how to identify and manage newly diagnosed high-risk multiple myeloma in the current era of effective frontline therapies. Here are the key studies that we touched upon:
1. Phase II OPTIMUM (MUKnine) trial in ultra-high-risk myeloma and PCL:
2. Meta-analysis of >2500 patients with chromosome 1q21 abnormalities:
3. Predicting ultra-high risk myeloma by molecular profiling (including SKY92 GEP signature):
4. French data on adverse prognostic impact of del(1p32):
5. S1211 study: The first high-risk enrichment RCT in myeloma (VRD vs Elo-VRD):
6. Outcome of “double-hit” patients in MASTER and Dara-VRD arm of GRIFFIN trial:
7. Impact of Auto-Transplant on decreasing MRD burden in high-risk myeloma (including double-hits):
