In this podcast, the authors reviewed and discussed seven abstracts presented at the 65th Annual Meeting of the American Society of Hematology, focusing on B cell maturation antigen-directed therapies, emphasizing the value of real-world data (RWD) in treatment decision-making, and suggesting how RWD can help advance multiple myeloma research. These abstracts include real-world outcome studies in patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma with triple-class exposed or refractory disease (abstracts 542, 3358, and 6727); an analysis on disease burden associated with delayed diagnosis (abstract 3771); comparability of real-world outcomes vs clinical trial data (abstracts 91 and 545); and outcomes in patients with multiple myeloma who experienced early treatment failure after upfront quadruplet therapy (abstract 1989).
