CARVYKTI® Significantly Improved Minimal Residual Disease Negativity Compared to Standard of Care for Patients with Relapsed or Refractory Multiple Myeloma
SOMERSET, N.J., Dec. 09, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Legend Biotech Corporation (NASDAQ: LEGN) (Legend Biotech), a global leader in cell therapy, announced today new results from the Phase 3 CARTITUDE-4 study that show a single infusion of CARVYKTI® (ciltacabtagene autoleucel; cilta-cel) provided significantly higher rates of minimal residual disease (MRD)-negativity in patients with relapsed or lenalidomide-refractory multiple myeloma who have received at least one prior line of therapy, including a proteasome inhibitor (PI) and an immunomodulatory agent (IMiD, compared to standard therapies of pomalidomide, bortezomib, and dexamethasone (PVd) or daratumumab, pomalidomide, and dexamethasone (DPd).1 MRD negativity is a prognostic marker of prolonged survival outcomes for patients with multiple myeloma.1 These results reinforce the clinical value of CARVYKTI® as early as second line and support the recent achievement of overall survival (OS) benefit versus standard therapies1. The MRD negativity findings were featured as an oral presentation at the 66th American Society of Hematology (ASH) Annual Meeting and Exposition (Abstract #1032) in San Diego, California.1
