Al-Ola A Abdallah: BCMA CAR-T and Pomalidomide Therapy in RRMM

Al-Ola A Abdallah, Associate Professor and Plasma Cell Disorder Program Director of the Division of HMCT at the University of Kansas Medical Center, shared a post on X:

“Day 2 ASH25 abstract selection:

2/10 ASH Abstract: New data alert!

A novel biparatopic nanobody-based BCMA CAR-T combined with pomalidomide shows promising potency for RRMM: In-vitro characterisation and phase 1 dose-escalation study. Here’s what you need to know.

Another study from China

Why this matters: RRMM remains tough to treat. Current BCMA CAR-T therapies work well—but many patients still relapse. Adding pomalidomide (an IMiD) could boost CAR-T performance.

Takeaway: This biparatopic BCMA CAR-T plus pomalidomide combo shows:

  • Superior in-vitro potency
  • Manageable safety
  • Deep MRD-negative responses

Next stop → Phase 2 evaluation.
