Benjamin Diamond, MD, of the University of Miami, describes findings from the single-center phase II REKINDLE trial, which looked at the combination regimen of iberdomide, carfilzomib, daratumumab, and dexamethasone in patients with early relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma (Abstract 251).
Alexander Lesokhin, MD, of Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, discusses results of a retrospective analysis from the phase II MagnetisMM-3 trial. A post hoc analysis was conducted of the subgroup of patients enrolled in the study who had a prolonged treatment interruption or who permanently discontinued elranatamab and maintained their responses for 6 months or longer (Abstract 2269).
Othman Al-Sawaf, MD, PhD, of the University Hospital of Cologne, presents results from the phase III CLL17 trial, which compared continuous ibrutinib monotherapy to fixed-duration venetoclax plus obinutuzumab to fixed-duration venetoclax plus ibrutinib for previously untreated patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) (Abstract 1).
Brian Ball, MD, of City of Hope, presents updated results from the phase I/II BEXMAB study. They showed that the doublet had encouraging activity in patients with TP53-mutant, higher-risk MDS; translational data support the combination regimen’s potential for altering immune dysregulation in this subtype (Abstract 236).
Jack Khouri, MD, of Cleveland Clinic, describes the findings of a phase II trial which investigated the safety and efficacy of burixafor (GPC-100), a potent and selective small -molecule antagonist of CXCR4, and propranolol with granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) for the mobilization of hematopoietic progenitor cells (HPC) in patients with multiple myeloma. Researchers aimed to boost the bone marrow HPC niche and optimize mobilization in patients with multiple myeloma eligible for autologous hematopoietic cell transplant (Abstract 1050).
Krina Patel, MD, MSc, of The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center, provides updated results from the fully enrolled, ongoing iMMagine-1 phase II registrational trial of anitocabtagene autoleucel, an autologous anti-BCMA CAR T-cell therapy with a novel D-domain binder. The agent is under development for patients with relapsed and/or refractory multiple myeloma (Abstract 256).
