therapeutic action: BCMA CAR-T cell therapy for relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma treatment

Invasive Fungal Disease is Rare in Multiple Myeloma Patients Treated with BCMA CAR-T Therapy

Researchers studied 234 multiple myeloma patients who received a cutting-edge cancer treatment called BCMA CAR-T therapy. While this therapy can cause serious side effects related to immune system activation, the study found that dangerous fungal infections were surprisingly rare, occurring in only 1.7% of patients. However, when fungal infections did occur in these patients, they tended to be severe and life-threatening, highlighting the need for careful monitoring of high-risk patients.

Invasive Fungal Disease is Rare in Multiple Myeloma Patients Treated with BCMA CAR-T Therapy

Researchers studied patients with multiple myeloma who received a new type of cancer treatment called BCMA CAR-T cell therapy. While this powerful therapy can sometimes increase infection risk, the study found that serious fungal infections occurred in only a small percentage of patients (1.7%). However, when these fungal infections did occur, they were often severe and potentially life-threatening, particularly in patients who experienced significant side effects from the therapy.
