ASH 2022 | Infections following anti-BCMA bispecific antibodies for multiple myeloma
Ajai Chari, MD, PhD, Mount Sinai School of Medicine, New York City, NY, discusses findings from a recent study investigating the occurrence and kinetics of infections following treatment with anti-BCMA bispecific antibodies in patients with multiple myeloma. The study reported a high rate of grade 3-5 infections that continued to increase with time. However, Dr Chari highlights that intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIg) administration can be a very effective prophylactic strategy to reduce the risk of infections. This interview took place at the 64th ASH Annual Meeting and Exposition Congress held in New Orleans, LA.
