Transgender and gender diverse (TGD) people experience disparities in cancer care, including more late-stage diagnoses, worse cancer-related outcomes, and an increased number of unaddressed and more severe symptoms related to cancer and cancer-directed therapy. This article outlines plans to address the unique needs of TGD people through a TGD-focused oncology clinic. Such a clinic could be structured by upholding the following tenets: (1) champion a supportive, gender-affirming environment that seeks to continuously improve, (2) include a transdisciplinary team of specialists who are dedicated to TGD cancer care, and (3) initiate and embrace TGD-patient-centric research on health outcomes and health care delivery.

Patients participating in clinical trials are highly selected and may not represent the general population. The pivotal study of teclistamab (MajesTEC-1), a B-cell maturation antigen (BCMA)xCD3 bispecific antibody, demonstrated impressive response rates and progression free survival in relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM) with acceptable toxicity. We performed a retrospective study of 58 patients treated as standard of care at four US academic centers to determine how these results translated to the real-world.
