Research news
New endpoint in multiple myeloma could mean faster drug approvals
[Rahul Banerjee]A few months ago, the U.S. Food & Drug Administration voted to accept a new endpoint - MRD, or measurable residual disease - for accelerated approval of treatments for multiple myeloma. "This is good news for patients, says Dr. Rahul Banerjee, assistant professor (Hematology and Oncology). It's a much more sensitive endpoint. When MRD is used as a clinical trial endpoint it means the FDA can approve a drug sooner and we can get it into the hands of patients faster."
