Quick takeaways
- Peripheral blood MRD testing using mass spectrometry can accurately predict long-term outcomes and guide therapy adjustments in myeloma treatment.
- Immunogenic cell death and reprogramming macrophages with chimeric antigen receptors show promise as novel approaches for targeting amyloid deposits in amyloidosis treatment.
Deep dives
Peripheral Blood MRD and Mass Spectrometry vs. Whole Genome Sequencing
The podcast highlights the significance of peripheral blood minimal residual disease (MRD) in myeloma treatment. Mass spectrometry is projected to emerge as a prevailing diagnostic tool, offering high sensitivity in peripheral blood testing. It can accurately predict long-term outcomes and guide therapy adjustments. Additionally, the session discusses the utility of whole genome scanning, although its sensitivity is anticipated to be inferior to mass spectrometry. Furthermore, it explores the potential of antibody therapy and amyloidosis treatment through distinguishing tumor clones from regenerating clones and exploring novel protein forms.
