HealthTrust presents…“Present Use & Future Directions of Bispecific Molecules in Relapsed or Refractory Multiple Myeloma”
Multiple myeloma is a malignant neoplasm of plasma cells in the blood that accumulate in the bone marrow, leading to blood dyscrasias, bone damage, infections, and renal damage. Due to the incurable nature of the malignancy, patients may undergo several lines of treatment. Multiple myeloma remains incurable, therefore, the development of additional options for relapsed or refractory disease is vital. Approved therapies have shown success targeting B-cell maturation antigen (BCMA); however, additional targets are being explored in clinical trials. Due to the evolving nature of oncology, pharmacists are consistently introduced to new therapies and thus should be familiar with those in development. This session will focus on current FDA-approved bispecific molecules, differentiating between bispecific antibodies and bispecific T-cell engagers, toxicities associated with these therapies, and current NCCN guideline recommendations. Ongoing clinical trials and advances in bispecific research will also be provided to highlight the evolving future of these agents.
Learning Objectives for Pharmacists & Nurses | At the end of this session, participants should be able to:
- Recall the current landscape of bispecific molecule treatment of relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma
- Identify the differences between current FDA approved bispecific antibodies and bispecific T-cell engagers
- Recognize treatment strategies currently being utilized in bispecific molecule clinical trials
