Cost-Effectiveness Analysis of CAR T-Cell Therapies vs Antibody Drug Conjugates for Patients with Advanced Multiple Myeloma - PubMed

Cost-Effectiveness Analysis of CAR T-Cell Therapies vs Antibody Drug Conjugates for Patients with Advanced Multiple Myeloma - PubMed

Source : https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/36651055/

The .gov means it's official. Federal government websites often end in .gov or .mil. Before sharing sensitive information, make sure you're on a federal government site. The site is secure....


Conclusions: These findings hinge on the assumption of longer-term survival but suggest that the use of CAR-T therapy is approaching standard ICER thresholds.

Survival in Patients with Relapsed-Refractory Multiple Myeloma: Indirect Comparison of Six New Treatments - PubMed

Survival in Patients with Relapsed-Refractory Multiple Myeloma: Indirect Comparison of Six New Treatments - PubMed

Source : https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/36648884/

In recent years, new treatments have been studied for relapsed-refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM), including two CAR-T products and a variety of non-CAR-T agents. Since direct comparisons between these innovative treatments...


Conclusions: While the Shiny method has confirmed its validity in reconstructing individual patient data, our indirect comparisons have offered some original clues to interpret the results of OS published in these studies.

How I treat diffuse large B-cell lymphoma - PubMed

Source : https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/36634531/

Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is usually treated with chemoimmunotherapy in curative intention at initial diagnosis. Novel agents have improved the prognosis of high-risk patients in the front-line and relapsed...


Conclusions: Several novel drugs have improved first-line and second-line treatment of DLBCL in clinical practice. De-escalation of low-risk patients reduces acute and late side-effects. New treatment concepts such as CAR-T cells and bispecific antibodies will further improve the outcome of high-risk patients.

Conclusions: This comprehensive examination of BMI and survival in newly diagnosed MM patients suggests that underweight and severe obesity are associated with worse survival. Future studies of weight trajectories and body composition may help clarify these observations. Additionally, clinical research to understand if patients with extreme BMI...

Chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapy in multiple myeloma: A comprehensive review of current data and implications for clinical practice - PubMed

Source : https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/36627265/

Multiple myeloma (MM) is a hematologic malignancy defined by the clonal proliferation of transformed plasma cells. Despite tremendous advances in the treatment paradigm of MM, a cure remains elusive for...


Conclusions: In this comprehensive review, the authors describe the development of CAR T-cell therapies in myeloma, the outcomes of notable clinical trials, the toxicities and limitations of CAR T-cell therapies, and the strategies to overcome therapeutic challenges of CAR T cells in the hope of achieving a cure for multiple myeloma.
