Differentiating Bispecifics & CAR-T for Relapsed Refractory Multiple Myeloma

Tweetorial 3: Not Just Another Monoclonal Antibody: Best Practices for Providing T-cell Therapies


This activity is jointly provided by Global Education Group and Bonum CE.

Supported by educational grants from Janssen Biotech, Inc., administered by Janssen Scientific Affairs, LLC, and Pfizer.

Program Overview

Determining appropriate treatment for patients with multiple myeloma (MM) is complex due to the heterogeneity of the patient population, the occurrence of multiple disease relapses and the availability of multiple treatment options. Differentiating BCMA-targeted agents, determination of appropriate patients for BCMA-targeted therapies, as well as potential for sequencing these agents are important educational needs for health care professionals (HCPs) caring for patients with MM. Additionally, questions remain regarding best practices for providing BCMA-directed T-cell therapies.

This X-based Tweetorial seeks to provide HCPs with best practices in the provision of T-cell therapies for patients with RRMM.
