Susan Bal, MD, University of Alabama at Birmingham, Birmingham, AL, presents the results of the MILESTONE trial (NCT04991103) evaluating the use of measurable residual disease (MRD) response-adapted deferral of autologous stem cell transplantation (autoSCT) in patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma (MM). The study demonstrated that real-time MRD testing post-induction could guide decisions about proceeding to autoSCT, potentially sparing 25% of patients from the associated toxicities without compromising outcomes. This interview took place at the 21st International Myeloma Society (IMS) Annual Meeting, held in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
