Data are n (%) except where otherwise specified.

ADC, antibody-drug conjugates; BCMA, B-cell maturation antigen; ECOG, Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group; ISS, International Staging System; MM, multiple myeloma.

Classification is based on the last anti-BCMA therapy used if patients received >1 therapy.

The last nonmissing European Cooperative Oncology Group score before cilta-cel infusion was used.

All were extramedullary.

§

Maximum value from bone marrow biopsy and bone marrow aspirate is selected if both results are available.

Patients with neither serum nor urine measurable disease who had extramedullary lesions could be using positron-emission/computed tomography or whole-body magnetic resonance imaging to satisfy the measurable disease criteria per protocol.

High-risk category defined as del17p, t(4,14), or t(14,16).

#

REG5459 and MEDI2228 were administered before belantamab, which was the last anti-BCMA therapy for all ADC-exposed patients.

∗∗

At least 1 proteasome inhibitor, ≥1 immunomodulatory drug, and 1 anti-CD38 antibody.

††

At least 2 proteasome inhibitors, ≥2 immunomodulatory drugs, and 1 anti-CD38 antibody.
