Daratumumab-Based Therapeutic Approaches and Clinical Outcomes in Multiple Myeloma and other Plasma Cell Dyscrasias: Insights from a Nationwide Real-World Chart Review Study.

Singapore leads Southeast Asia in the routine use of daratumumab for multiple myeloma and other plasma cell dyscrasias. This retrospective review analyzed 112 patients who received daratumumab between 2012 and 2020. Tolerability, and efficacy based on prior lines (PL) of therapy, cytogenetic risk group, and the presence of renal impairment were presented.

Variation in immunoglobulin use and impact on survival in myeloma.

Serious infection is common in patients with multiple myeloma due to immune deficiency from the underlying disease and/or its treatment. Immunoglobulin replacement is one approach to reduce infection risk in these patients. However, few real-world data exist on its use in patients with myeloma.

Tolerability of Daratumumab Amongst Asian Patients with Plasma Cell Dyscrasias - A Single Centre Experience.

Daratumumab is increasingly incorporated into the standard treatment regimens for patients with plasma cell dyscrasias in Asia, especially with cost-containment measures implemented by various regional health authorities. This analysis aimed to study daratumumab's tolerability amongst Asian patients. This is a retrospective medical records review of patients who received daratumumab between November 2016 and August 2021 as part of routine clinical care.

A Retrospective Review of Secondary Hemophagocytic Lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) and Dengue-associated HLH from a Teaching Hospital in Singapore.

Real-world data on the outcome of Asian patients with secondary hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH), especially on dengue-associated HLH, are limited to small case series. This is a retrospective records review of adult patients with secondary HLH between 2015 and 2020. Thirty-two adult patients were followed up for a median of 6.

Identifying ataxia-telangiectasia in cancer patients: Novel insights from an interesting case and review of literature.

Timely genetic testing leading to early diagnosis of A-T is crucial due to its plethora of implications on clinical management, particularly in those who develop malignancies. Thus, clinicians have to be astute in identifying diagnostic clues of A-T.
