🤔#biomarker definitions
🎯Dx biomarkers distinguish👥w disease &👥 w/o
🔮Prognostic biomarkers forecast likelihood of a clin event, dz progression or recurrence
🔮Predictive biomarkers identify 👥 more likely to experience favorable/unfavorable effect from 💊💉

@jmikhaelmd @BonumCe @JanssenUS @pfizer 4/ 📊 #BonumCE #MMSM

SP is 63 yo/M presents w anemia & bone pain
BMBX shows 70% clonal plasma cells and FISH reveals t(11;14)
MRI shows multifocal bone lesions
sBCMA is 227 ng/mL and SLAMF7 8.3 ng/mL by ELISA

☑️ Which is diagnostic of #multiplemyeloma in SP❓

@jmikhaelmd @BonumCe @JanssenUS @pfizer 5/ ✅If you picked MRI with >1 lesion 🙌!
#MultipleMyeloma-defining biomarker by @IMFmyeloma IMWG 👉 SLiM 🦀

“S”= 60% clonal bone marrow plasma cells
“Li”= 🆓light chain ratio >100%
“M”=MRI w/ >1 lesion
“C”=calcium
“R”=renal insufficiency
“A”=anemia
“B”=bone lesions

@jmikhaelmd @BonumCe @JanssenUS @pfizer @IMFmyeloma 6/ There are many biomarkers 🎯 for diagnostic & prognostic use in #multiplemyeloma
Predictive biomarkers for response to a specified 💉💊 have not been established
☀️Good 📰!
🧑🏻‍🔬 are 🔬 #BCMA as a predictive #biomarker

#BonumCE #MMSM

@jmikhaelmd @BonumCe @JanssenUS @pfizer @IMFmyeloma 7/ ⬆️ sBCMA above median correlated w/ ⬇️ PFS & ⬇️OS in pts w/ #multiplemyleoma
Correlation 🔎 in ND & RRMM
sBCMA maintained independent prognostic value after adjustment for:
✍️renal function
✍️age
✍️serum β2 microglobulin
✍️hemoglobin
✍️bone disease

#BonumCE #MMSM

@jmikhaelmd @BonumCe @JanssenUS @pfizer @IMFmyeloma 8/ ⬆️ baseline sBCMA in 👥MGUS & SMM are predictive of progres.➡️ #multiplemyeloma
📈 MGUS PFS HR 3.44 for sBCMA ≥77 vs <77ng/mL
📈SMM PFS HR 2.0 for sBCMA ≥128 vs <128ng/mL
✍️Effect of sBCMA on PFS was maintained when adjusting for baseline MGUS or SMM risk

#BonumCE #MMSM

@jmikhaelmd @BonumCe @JanssenUS @pfizer @IMFmyeloma 9/ Normalization of sBCMA may:
🔮 OS for 👥receiving tx
🔮 a⬆️likelihood of response

👥 who began tx w baseline sBCMA levels in normal range had a ⬆️ PFS & OS relative to 👥 w⬆️ baseline sBCMA
👥 who had ⬆️baseline sBCMA whose sBCMA normalized during tx had ⬆️OS

@jmikhaelmd @BonumCe @JanssenUS @pfizer @IMFmyeloma 10/ 📊 #BonumCE #MMSM
☑️Which of the following biomarker-treatment pairs is a POTENTIAL predictive #biomarker in #MultipleMyeloma❓

@jmikhaelmd @BonumCe @JanssenUS @pfizer @IMFmyeloma 11/ ✅If you picked BCMA - belantamab 👏!
High baseline soluble BCMA correlated w reduced belantamab mafodotin minimum drug exposure concentration @ the end of 21-day dosing interval in ppl w #multiplemyeloma

#BonumCE #MMSM

@jmikhaelmd @BonumCe @JanssenUS @pfizer @IMFmyeloma 12/ 📍Other therapies & sBCMA:
🚗Several studies show that response, PFS, & OS after BCMA-directed CAR T-cell tx in MM are not assoc w baseline BCMA levels on tumor cells

🚗Other CAR-T trials show pretreatment BCMA levels have impact on depth or durability of response
#BonumCE

@jmikhaelmd @BonumCe @JanssenUS @pfizer @IMFmyeloma 13/ 🔎 Discrepancies between 🚗 CAR-T studies may be explained in part by
1️⃣ Differences in assays used to quantify BCMA expression (flow cytometry > sensitive than IHC)
2️⃣ Measurement of membrane-bound BCMA vs. soluble BCMA (sBCMA)

#BonumCE #MMSM

@jmikhaelmd @BonumCe @JanssenUS @pfizer @IMFmyeloma 14/ 💎Phase 1⃣ study of SQ elranatamab
▶️(investigational #BCMA targeting bispecific antibody)

👉 free soluble BCMA ⬇️ w/ ⬆️ doses
👉& demonstrated sustained ⬇️throughout each dose interval
#BonumCE #MMSM

@jmikhaelmd @BonumCe @JanssenUS @pfizer @IMFmyeloma 15/ 🤔 sBCMA = prognostic, ≠ predictive
sBCMA 📉 w/ response to BCMA & non-BCMA bispecific abs in R/R #multiplemyeloma
🤔Phase 1 studies → responders have ⬇️ in sBCMA (88%-teclistamab & 98%-talquetamab)
🤔Non-responders have ⬆️ sBCMA (80%-teclistamab & 49%-talquetamab)

🔊Have your say...

☑️Which best represents your use of sBCMA #biomarker assay❓

@jmikhaelmd @BonumCe @JanssenUS @pfizer @IMFmyeloma 17/ #BonumCE #mmsm
🎀 Wrap Up Summary 🎀
✍️ Multiple diagnostic & prognostic biomarkers are routinely used
🙅 No predictive biomarkers are #FDA approved
✍️ Accumulating 📉 supports sBCMA as a biomarker
