Panelists discuss how various patient characteristics, including age, fitness level, cytogenetic risk, and comorbidities, influence their decision to use more intensive quadruplet regimens like D-VRd (daratumumab plus bortezomib, lenalidomide, and dexamethasone) vs standard triplet regimens, such as VRd or KRd (carfilzomib, lenalidomide, and dexamethasone) in transplant-eligible multiple myeloma patients, while also considering administration logistics and supportive care requirements

What factors around administration logistics and supportive care requirements (eg, premedications, infusion reactions) do you consider when sequencing regimens for transplant-eligible patients?
(Dr Adams) What patient characteristics would lead you to consider a quadruplet regimen like D-VRd (daratumumab plus bortezomib, lenalidomide, and dexamethasone) compared with a triplet regimen like VRd or KRd (carfilzomib, lenalidomide, and dexamethasone)?
