Discussing Common Questions Posed by Patients with Relapsed/Refractory Multiple Myeloma — Webinar Video Proceedings

Faculty

TARGET AUDIENCE
This program is intended for medical oncologists, hematologists, hematology-oncology fellows and other allied healthcare professionals involved in the treatment of multiple myeloma.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES

• Consider published research findings and other clinical factors in the best-practice sequencing of established and novel agents and regimens in the care of patients with relapsed/refractory (R/R) multiple myeloma (MM).
• Understand the mechanisms of action of and pivotal clinical trial findings with FDA-approved novel therapies to facilitate their integration into MM management algorithms.
• Evaluate the biological rationale for exploiting B-cell maturation antigen (BCMA) in the management of MM, and understand the similarities and differences among available and investigational therapies directed at this target.
• Assess available findings with BCMA-directed chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapy and bispecific antibodies for MM, and recognize patients for whom treatment with one of these novel agents would be appropriate.
• Review recently presented research establishing the efficacy of BCMA-directed antibody-drug conjugate therapy, and recognize the potential clinical role of this form of treatment.
