During the European Hematology Association (EHA) 2023 Hybrid Congress, the Lymphoma Hub and Multiple Myeloma Hub held a joint satellite session on the ins and outs of CAR T-cells in the real world.
Here the Multiple Myeloma Hub is pleased to share the presentation by Shaji Kumar, Mayo Clinic, Rochester, US, on biomarkers and eligibility for CAR T-cell therapies in multiple myeloma.
In this presentation, Shaji Kumar shares the currently approved CAR T-cell products for MM, discussing their up-to-date clinical data (Figure 1). He also shares the limitations and logistical challenges facing the implementation CAR T-cell therapy, as well as the current eligibility criteria for its use (Figure 2).
