The International Staging System for multiple myeloma recently underwent a second revision (R2-ISS) to include gain/amplification of 1q21 and account for the additive prognostic significance of multiple high-risk features. The phase 3 ICARIA-MM (isatuximab-pomalidomide-dexamethasone vs. pomalidomide-dexamethasone) and IKEMA (isatuximab-carfilzomib-dexamethasone vs.

Expanding the systemic treatment options for patients with psoriasis, deucravacitinib, an oral, selective, allosteric tyrosine kinase 2 inhibitor is approved in the United States, European Union, China, Japan, Taiwan, Korea, and other countries for the treatment of adults with moderate to severe plaque psoriasis who are candidates for systemic therapy. Evidence suggests the comparative efficacy of systemic therapies may be different in Asian versus White patients. This systematic review and network meta-analysis (NMA) evaluated the clinical efficacy associated with deucravacitinib and other biologic or non-biologic systemic treatments for moderate to severe plaque psoriasis in Asian populations.

Given the early use of triplet and quadruplet regimens, most patients with multiple myeloma (MM) will be exposed and/or refractory to PIs, IMiDs, and anti-CD38 mAbs after first- or second-line treatment. Effective treatment for this group of triple class exposed/refractory (TCE/R) patients is crucial. Here we present a post-hoc subgroup analysis of TCE/R patients treated on the ALGONQUIN study of belantamab mafodotin plus pomalidomide-dexamethasone (belamaf-Pd) for relapsed MM.

Article Synopsis
  • The study evaluates the effectiveness of a treatment regimen (ixazomib, thalidomide, and dexamethasone) followed by maintenance with ixazomib after salvage autologous hematopoietic stem-cell transplantation (HSCT) for patients with relapsed multiple myeloma, compared to observation.
  • Conducted as part of a larger trial (Myeloma XII) across 79 UK hospitals, it involved patients aged 18+ with measurable disease and certain health criteria, randomized into two treatment groups.
  • The primary measurement for effectiveness was progression-free survival, with safety assessments also being conducted, and a total of 206 patients participated in this phase of the trial.
