Larry Anderson, MD, PhD, University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center, Dallas, TX, provides insight into the five-year follow-up analysis of the KarMMa trial (NCT03361748), which evaluated the use of idecabtagene vicleucel (ide-cel) in relapsed/refractory (R/R) multiple myeloma (MM). The analysis of 137 patients showed a 76.6% overall response rate (ORR), a complete response (CR) rate of 34%, and a median progression-free survival (PFS) of 10.8 months, with an improved overall survival (OS) of 28.3 months. Notably, 17% of patients who achieved a CR or better were still in remission at the five-year follow-up. This interview took place at the 21st International Myeloma Society (IMS) Annual Meeting, held in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
