IMS 2024 | Approaching the treatment of R/R myeloma in Brazil: available options and current challenges

Abel Costa, MD, D’or Institute for Research and Education, São Paulo, Brazil, discusses the disparities in access to advanced therapies for patients with multiple myeloma (MM) in Brazil’s dual healthcare system. While the private sector has access to various approved treatments, such as bispecific antibodies and CAR-T, significant delays and challenges remain due to prolonged “brain-to-vein” times and insurance restrictions, often limiting timely treatment of relapsed/refractory (R/R) patients. This interview took place at the 21st International Myeloma Society (IMS) Annual Meeting, held in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
