ASH 2022 | Using MRD status as a metric of CAR-T efficacy in patients with multiple myeloma
Yi Lin, MD, PhD, Mayo Clinic, Rochester, MN, shares insights into the merits of using measurable residual disease (MRD) status to assess the efficacy of CAR-T therapy in patients with multiple myeloma. Dr Lin highlights that for patients with bone marrow MRD negativity, positron emission tomography (PET) MRD status can be an additional prognostic measurement that can help clinicians closely monitor the efficacy of CAR-T. Moreover, MRD positivity in either the bone marrow or PET analysis is a strong indicator that patients will not achieve complete remission (CR) and require closer monitoring. This interview took place at the 64th ASH Annual Meeting and Exposition congress in New Orleans, LA.
