On March 20, 2024, the European Commission granted approval to idecabtagene vicleucel (ide-cel) for the treatment of triple-class-exposed relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM) with two or more prior therapies, including an immunomodulatory agent (IMiD), proteasome inhibitor (PI), and an anti-CD38 antibody with subsequent disease progression.1
In August, 2021, ide-cel was granted approval by the European Commission for the treatment of RRMM treated with three or more prior therapies, including an IMiD, PI, and anti-CD38 monoclonal antibody.2 This latest approval for ide-cel marks the first chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy approved in earlier lines of therapy. This approval is based on data from the phase III KarMMa-3 (NCT03651128) clinical trial.1
The Multiple Myeloma Hub has previously reported the study design of KarMMa-3 and latest updates from ASH 2023.
