Dean Smith, BA(Hons), MBBS, MRCP, FRCPath, MD(Res), Nottingham University Hospitals NHS Trust, Nottingham, UK, discusses findings from the largest real-world study to date evaluating daratumumab, bortezomib, and dexamethasone (DVd) in patients with multiple myeloma at first relapse in the UK. Dr Smith explains that time to next treatment was shorter in patients with prior bortezomib exposure but was not significantly affected by prior lenalidomide or autologous stem cell transplantation. He highlights DVd as an effective and well-tolerated option for older patients and those ineligible for or who do not wish to receive immunotherapy. This interview took place at the 23rd International Myeloma Society (IMS) Annual Meeting in Glasgow, UK.
