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.
