Venetoclax is a first in class BCL-2 inhibitor, currently under investigation for the treatment of t(11;14) multiple myeloma (MM). The objective of this analysis was to characterize the exposure-efficacy and exposure-safety relationships of venetoclax when combined with carfilzomib and dexamethasone (VenKd) in t(11;14)-positive relapsed or refractory (R/R) MM patients from a phase 2 study. Fifty-seven patients receiving VenKd or Kd were included in the analysis.

Background: Relapsed and refractory acute myeloid leukemia (AML) carries a dismal prognosis. CAR T cells have shown limited efficacy in AML, partially due to dysfunctional autologous T cells and the extended time for generation of patient specific CAR T cells. Allogeneic NK cell therapy is a promising alternative, but strategies to enhance efficacy and persistence may be necessary.

Background: The plasma cell malignancy, multiple myeloma (MM), remains incurable despite advanced treatment protocols. Overexpression of Bcl-2 (an anti-apoptotic protein), in MM harboring the translocation (11;14), contributes to resistance to prior therapy. Venetoclax, a selective oral inhibitor of BCL-2 is a novel agent that shows promise as a therapeutic agent.

The selective Bcl-2 inhibitor venetoclax has shown promising therapeutic potential in multiple myeloma, particularly in cases associated with t(11;14) translocation. However, the efficacy of venetoclax in myeloma patients with the t(6;14) translocation remains less investigated. In this study, we conducted a retrospective analysis to investigate the efficacy of venetoclax-based therapy in relapsed/refractory myeloma patients with t(6;14) translocation.

Background: FDG PET/CT is a tool for assessing response to therapy in various cancers, and may provide an earlier biomarker of clinical response. We developed a novel semi-automated approach for analyzing FDG PET/CT images in patients with multiple myeloma (MM) to standardize FDG PET application.
Methods: Patients (n = 8) with relapsed/refractory MM from the Phase 2 study (NCT02899052) of venetoclax plus carfilzomib and dexamethasone underwent FDG PET/CT at baseline and up to two timepoints during treatment.
