Mohamad Mohty, MD, PhD, Saint-Antoine Hospital, Paris, France, shares some insights into the evolving role of autologous stem cell transplantation (autoSCT) in multiple myeloma with the emergence of novel immunotherapies, namely CAR-T cells. While several ongoing trials are evaluating CAR-T cells in this patient population, there is uncertainty around whether these agents will replace autoSCT, and more data are needed. Prof. Mohty also highlights the importance of improving accessibility and affordability of CAR-T cells, which remains a challenge in the field. This interview took place at the EBMT-EHA 6th European CAR T-cell Meeting in Valencia, Spain.
