Harsh Parmar, MD, Hackensack University Medical Center, Hackensack, NJ, presents results from a study on real-world outcomes of tandem transplantation in patients with high-risk newly diagnosed multiple myeloma (NDMM). Time to next therapy (TTNT) following relapse was significantly longer with the tandem transplantation approach (34 months) compared to a single transplant followed by maintenance therapy (12 months). Similarly, there was a significant increase in overall survival (OS) in patients receiving tandem transplantation, with a decreased adjusted hazard ratio of 0.47 compared to single transplant + maintenance. This provides real-world evidence supporting the use of tandem transplantation in eligible patients with NDMM. This interview took place during the 2024 American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) Meeting in Chicago, IL.
