"Background: Ciltacabtagene autoleucel (cilta-cel) demonstrated superior progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival compared to standard of care (SOC; pomalidomide, bortezomib, and dexamethasone or daratumumab, pomalidomide, and dexamethasone) in patients with lenalidomide-refractory multiple myeloma (MM) after 1-3 prior lines of therapy (LOTs) in the phase 3 CARTITUDE-4 trial. The increase in the TTNT and sustained benefits in PROs, along with prolonged survival, support cilta-cel as a new SOC treatment for MM patients who are refractory to lenalidomide and have received 1-3 prior LOTs. Importantly, with ~3 years of follow-up, a single infusion of cilta-cel provided patients with a longer delay in worsening of MM related symptoms, functional impacts, and GHS/QoL. The totality of clinical and patient-reported evidence demonstrates the significant benefit of cilta-cel."
P1 | "Tal-DP exhibits a deep, long-term impact on efficacy through complementary mechanisms of action and may be especially beneficial in pts with prior BsAb exposure, who typically have unfavorable BL immune profiles. Ongoing analyses of tec-DP from MajesTEC-2 (NCT04722146) will be presented."

Despite application of several new drugs, such as daratumumab, bortezomib/lenalidomide/dexamethasone, in combination with hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, overall prognosis remains poor and the pathological mechanism of MM is still unknown. The present findings suggested that miR-1343-3p may regulate ATG7 and autophagy by directly targeting the 3'UTR of ATG7. To the best of our knowledge, there are no direct data showing the roles of miR-1343-3p in development of MM; however, miR-1343-3p may be considered a potential target for MM treatment.

However, plasma cells were largely unchanged, and NK-cells expressing CD38 - the daratumumab target antigen - increased in blood. Future research should consider the optimal timings of exercise during daratumumab treatment in myeloma to avert exacerbation of daratumumab-mediated NK-cell lysis.

This study investigates the effectiveness of CD38-targeting monoclonal antibodies (mAbs), daratumumab and isatuximab, in impairing crucial cellular processes and survival pathways in pBL malignant cells. The study also revealed a correlation between CD38 and MYC expression levels in pBL patient samples, suggesting CD38 involvement in key oncogenic processes. The study emphasises the therapeutic potential of CD38-targeting mAbs, particularly isatuximab, in pBL.
Post-treatment 18F-FDG PET (Daratumumab Bortezomib Thalidomide Dexamethasone) revealed a completely reduced signal of bone lesions, suggesting a complete response, which was substantiated both clinically and biologically, with the concurrent disappearance of telangiectasia and the monoclonal component, and the normalization of the EPO level. In future, additional data will be required to confirm the added value of 18F-FDG PET with TEMPI. Nevertheless, 18F-FDG PET can be a preferred tool for the extension workup and therapeutic evaluation of TEMPI syndrome.

Iber-Dd and Iber-DKd are safe combinations and able to eliminate MRD persistent after modern induction therapy and ASCT in NDMM. This study is ongoing, complete safety and efficacy results from part 1 and updated results from part 2 will be presented at the meeting.
Notably, our findings showed that daratumumab-induced NK fratricide was restricted to CD38-CD38 crosslinking and was not related to ADCC via CD16a-CD38 crosslinking. This study is the first in the literature to show the successful engineering of a tetravalent immune cell engager composed of tandem VHH units, which achieves high affinity and anticancer activity without mediating fratricide.
IRF-4 demonstrates high MFI on PCs, and it is not expressed on other leukocytes. In MM patients with MRD, daratumumab treatment does not affect IRF-4 expression. IRF-4 is a promising marker for PC identification in MRD assessment of MM patients undergoing anti-CD38 therapy.
In cohort A (NDMM), treatment consists of daratumumab 1800 mg SC (typical schedule), weekly bortezomib 1.3 mg/m2 SC, lenalidomide 25 mg PO days 1-21 and weekly dexamethasone 40 mg PO/IV (DaraVRd) every 28 days for 6 cycles followed by assessment of MRD by next-generation sequencing (clonoSEQ). Quadruplet induction results in deep responses allowing an opportunity to defer ASCT based on individual treatment response in NDMM. This study provides the initial feasibility of utilization of post induction MRD in guiding next steps in treatment. This approach is being further explored in the larger ongoing, randomized phase II MASTER-2 clinical trial to see if comparable clinical outcomes are possible without ASCT in those achieving deep response to induction therapy.
Patients were treated either with carfilzomib, lenalidomide, and dexamethasone plus autologous stem cell transplant (KRd-ASCT, NCT01816971) or with daratumumab, carfilzomib, lenalidomide, and dexamethasone (Dara-KRd, NCT03500445). In addition to the prognostic significance of MS(-) at any level, the depth of MS negativity is associated with longer PFS. LC-MS(-) and/or 10-6 MRD(-) patients experience long term disease control. The potential of LC-MS to enhance the prognostic potential of MRD at 10-6 for predicting longer disease control is currently under evaluation in a larger sample set.
She received therapy with rituximab, bortezomib, prednisone, and darbepoetin alfa with partial to no response. After repeated insurance denials for daratumumab, isatuximab was obtained from the manufacturer through their CareASSIST program. Following the completion of 2 cycles of isatuximab (8 doses), significant and sustained red cell recovery was observed.

However, we did not observe difference in response following treatment combining chemotherapy associated or not with daratumumab, an IgG1 mAb direct against CD38. Our findings suggest that FCGR3A F158V polymorphism can regulate the immune environment and affect the development of tumor plasma cells.
