Another great #ASH2023, but as tradition dictates, here is a pic of the paper waste sent to my room. @ASH_hematology - time to stop this wasteful practice.

8/ Cost of myeloma drugs: Bortezomib SQ generic is now available in the US at a fraction of the price of brand name Velcade. Only $200 a dose. Use the generic. Not the brand name.

5/ Post transplant maintenance: Cassiopeia trial shows no added benefit of daratumumab maintenance in patients who got daratumumab as part of induction. Given this result, the cost, and the risk of toxicity, I don’t recommend adding Dara for maintenance. Need more data.

4/ Autologous stem cell transplant: Transplant remains important for all eligible patients. But the DETERMINATION trial results confirm that the timing of transplant (frontline versus at relapse) has similar overall survival. Patient choice will be an important factor.

What’s new in myeloma? 1/ Frontline treatment: We are recommending quadruplets as initial therapy for more patients, especially as pre transplant induction for high risk myeloma. My preferred quadruplet is Dara-VRd.
