Maximilian Merz: Splenomegaly, CAR T-Cell Therapy, Relapsed Myeloma
Maximilian Merz, Associate Attending Physician at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, shared a post on LinkedIn about a paper he co-authored with his colleagues published in Transplantation and Cellular Therapy of ASTCT:
“Finally out in Transplantation and Cellular Therapy of ASTCT
Prognostic implications of splenomegaly in BCMA-directed CAR T-Cell therapy for relapsed myeloma.
Major shoutout to co–first authors Thomas Wiemers and Maximilian Ferle — the Dynamic Data Duo — for driving the predictive modeling and analytics that made this work possible.
Clear massages!
Splenomegaly significantly associated with:
- severe and prolonged thrombocytopenia
- higher metabolic tumor volumes from PET/CT
- elevated sBCMA levels
- independent prognostic factor for PFS and OS
Yet another great collaboration between hematologists and radiologists from the Leipzig University and Universitätsklinikum Carl Gustav Carus Dresden.”
