More than half of patients newly diagnosed with lymphoma or myeloma experience significant anxiety or depression - we should expect therefore that the majority of these patients will need treatment. #mmsm ashpublications.org/bloodadvances/…

Hence, limited duration treatment needs to be evaluated for these drugs in #mmsm Al Garfall is leading LimiTEC study which studies limited duration bispecific. Also open at University of Iowa Chris Strouse and Columbia Raj Chakraborty

Very nice study by Susan Bal & Luciano J Costa demonstrating marked reduction in MRD burden after auto SCT in patients receiving quad induction for myeloma #mmsm rdcu.be/ejHBb

In a trial like this, really important to see the pfs not just mrd. We learned from the forte study that while delaying transplant had similar depth of response at an early time point, the pfs was clearly better for the transplant arm.
