    This activity is not accredited for CME/CE credit.

    This episode of Myeloma Matters features discussions of bispecific antibody therapy, a powerful form of targeted immunotherapy that has produced high response rates and helped patients—even those with multiply relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM)—achieve deeper and more sustained responses. This podcast will also review strategies for preventing and managing the serious, potentially life-threatening, adverse events (AEs) associated with myeloma bispecific antibody therapy, which include cytokine release syndrome (CRS), neurotoxicity, and infection.

    After completing this activity, participants should be better able to:

    • Evaluate recent clinical advances in the use of bispecific antibody therapy in patients with RRMM and their implications for clinical practice
    • Summarize the toxicity profiles of bispecific antibodies used in the treatment of RRMM, particularly with respect to CRS, neurotoxicity, and infections
    • Employ the recommended strategies to monitor for treatment complications and manage AEs associated with bispecific antibody therapy
