Karthik Ramasamy, MBBS, FRCP, FRCPath, PhD, on Ultra–High-Risk Multiple Myeloma: RADAR Trial in Newly Diagnosed Transplant-Eligible Patients
ASH 2025
Karthik Ramasamy, MBBS, FRCP, FRCPath, PhD, of the University of Oxford, discusses initial results of the phase II/III UK-based RADAR trial. The study evaluated isatuximab, bortezomib, lenalidomide, dexamethasone, and cyclophosphamide induction, followed by single autologous stem cell transplant, consolidation with isatuximab plus bortezomib, lenalidomide, and dexamethasone, and isatuximab plus lenalidomide maintenance, in patients with double-hit multiple myeloma (Abstract 98).
