Xavier Leleu, MD, PhD, Poitiers University Hospital, Poitiers, France, presents the results of one arm of the Phase II KarMMA-2 (NCT03601078) trial investigating idecabtagene vicleucel (ide-cel), a BCMA-targeted CAR T-cell therapy, in patients with clinical transplant-ineligible high-risk multiple myeloma (MM). The overall response rate (ORR) was greater than 90%, and the complete response (CR) rate was greater than 60%, with most of these patients achieving measurable residual disease (MRD) negativity. At 21 months, the median progression-free survival (PFS) has not yet been reached, with an expected PFS of 63% at 2 years. The safety profile of ide-cel was favorable. This interview took place during the 2024 American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) Meeting in Chicago, IL.
