Using tools like the ICE Score could improve consistency in grading neurotoxicity tied to bispecific antibodies in hematologic cancers.

Daratumumab showed a decrease in disease progression or death risk vs active monitoring in patients with high-risk smoldering multiple myeloma.

Emetogenic chemotherapy regimens and back pain were associated with higher symptom burden in older, vs younger, patients with cancer.

Data from the CEPHEUS trial support the use of D-VRd in patients with transplant-ineligible or -deferred multiple myeloma who can tolerate bortezomib.

Apalutamide decreased risk of death in mCSPC by 23% and 26% compared with enzalutamide and abiraterone acetate, respectively.
