Dr Orlowski discusses key efficacy data from the IMROZ trial of Isa-VRd in newly diagnosed, transplant-ineligible multiple myeloma.

Welcome to OncLive On Air®! I’m your host today, Ashling Wahner.

OncLive On Air is a podcast from OncLive®, which provides oncology professionals with the resources and information they need to provide the best patient care. In both digital and print formats, OncLive® covers every angle of oncology practice, from new technology to treatment advances to important regulatory decisions.

In today’s episode, sponsored by Sanofi, we had the pleasure of speaking with Robert Z. Orlowski, MD, PhD, about the phase 3 IMROZ trial (NCT03319667) investigating isatuximab-irfc (Sarclisa), bortezomib (Velcade), lenalidomide (Revlimid), and dexamethasone (Isa-VRd) vs VRd in patients with newly diagnosed, transplant-ineligible multiple myeloma. Dr Orlowski holds the Florence Maude Thomas Cancer Research Professorship in the Department of Lymphoma/Myeloma, is the director of the Section of Myeloma, and is a professor in the Department of Experimental Therapeutics in the Division of Cancer Medicine at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center in Houston.

In our exclusive interview, Dr Orlowski discussed key efficacy data from IMROZ, the quality-of-life impact of Isa-VRd, and how the findings from this trial may pave the way for additional research with quadruplet regimens in the transplant-ineligible multiple myeloma setting.
