Monika Engelhardt, MD, University Medical Center Freiburg, Freiburg, Germany, shares insights on the developing treatment landscape to achieve functional cures and long-term survival in transplant-eligible and transplant-ineligible patients with multiple myeloma (MM). For transplant-eligible patients, long-term remission is characterized by general fitness, and a good response to stem cell transplantation (SCT), achieved mainly in patients with standard-risk cytogenetics. For transplant-ineligible patients, treatment with daratumumab, lenalidomide, and dexamethasone is highly efficacious, allowing for a transition to a disease state more similar to smoldering multiple myeloma (SMM). This interview took place at the 50th Annual Meeting of the EBMT in Glasgow, Scotland.
