In this episode, we dive into updates in Minimal Residual Disease (MRD) in multiple myeloma, along with the FDA ODAC meeting in April 2024 to decide on MRD as a surrogate endpoint for accelerated approval. Our guests are Dr. Benjamin Derman and Dr. Manni Mohyuddin. Here are the key papers we discussed:
