Krina Patel, MD, MSc, The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center, Houston, TX, comments on a recent publication investigating the real-world outcomes of older patients (65 years and above) with multiple myeloma (MM) treated with idecabtagene vicleucel (ide-cel). This real-world experience highlighted that older patients, even those with polypharmacy due to a host of comorbidities, can safely receive ide-cel CAR T-cell therapy, and the treatment significantly improves their quality of life (QoL). This interview took place at the Twelfth Annual Meeting of the Society of Hematologic Oncology (SOHO 2024) congress in Houston, TX.
