Event Description

Let's learn together what we know about sequencing BCMA therapies, and what there's left to learn. As more immunotherapies targeting BCMA on cancerous myeloma plasma cells continue to be develop, there is question about which combination of these treatments is most efficacious, and what precautions need to be taken when using such similar targeted therapies. Join Dr. Josh Richter, a myeloma specialist, as he shares information regarding this topic.
