C4 Therapeutics Presents Phase 1 Data at European Hematology Association (EHA) 2026 Congress Highlighting Cemsidomide as a Potential Best-in-Class IKZF1/3 Degrader for Multiple Myeloma in Heavily Pretreated Relapsed/Refractory Population
At the 100 µg Recommended Phase 2 Dose (RP2D), Cemsidomide Demonstrated a 53% Overall Response Rate, Including Complete Responses and Minimal Residual Disease (MRD) Negative Status
Cemsidomide Was Well Tolerated With Minimal Discontinuations and Dose Reductions Related to Safety or Tolerability
Data Further Support Development Strategy Across Lines of Therapy and in Combination With Approved Therapies, Positioning Cemsidomide as a Potential Foundational Therapy for Relapsed/Refractory Multiple Myeloma
WATERTOWN, Mass., June 11, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- C4 Therapeutics, Inc. (C4T) (Nasdaq: CCCC), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company dedicated to advancing targeted protein degradation (TPD) science, will present further analysis from its fully enrolled Phase 1 trial of cemsidomide, a next-generation oral IKZF1/3 degrader, in combination with dexamethasone for the treatment of relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM) in a poster presentation at the European Hematology Association (EHA) 2026 Congress on Friday, June 12, 2026 at 6:45 pm CEST / 12:45 pm ET.
The analysis is consistent with previous data disclosed from the Phase 1 clinical trial and highlights cemsidomide's anti-myeloma activity and differentiated safety profile, further supporting its development as a potential best-in-class IKF1/3 degrader. The poster will be presented by Sagar Lonial, M.D., FACP, FASCO, chief medical officer at the Winship Cancer Institute at Emory University, and an investigator in the cemsidomide clinical trials.
“Despite advances in multiple myeloma therapies, IKZF1/3 degradation remains a foundational treatment strategy across lines of therapy because it is the only approach that addresses the underlying biology of the disease and has the built-in ability to stimulate the immune function, becoming a natural partner for immune therapies. Next-generation IKZF1/3 degraders are expected to help advance treatment regimens for this persistent disease, given data demonstrating their efficacy and tolerability,” said Dr. Lonial. “The clinical activity and safety profile of cemsidomide are highly encouraging for patients with relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma as they continue to seek disease-altering treatment options. The data from the ongoing Phase 1 study support the continued development of cemsidomide for patients with relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma who may benefit from IKZF1/3 degradation.”
“The totality of cemsidomide data, particularly data showing that patients have experienced a deepening response over time, continue to demonstrate its potential to deliver a tolerable therapy that can provide sustained benefit for patients who have progressed through other treatment options,” said Len Reyno, M.D., chief medical officer of C4 Therapeutics. “We remain focused on advancing our clinical development strategy to capitalize upon cemsidomide’s differentiated profile in hopes patients at various stages of their treatment journey may be able to benefit from this important investigational therapeutic regimen.”
The poster presentation includes data on 73 patients with a data cutoff of February 27, 2026. Patients were heavily pretreated, receiving a median of seven prior lines of therapy. Fifty-five patients (75%) received prior BCMA therapy, and 55 patients (75%) received prior CAR-T or T-cell engager therapy (TCE).
At the RP2D and maximum tolerated dose (100 µg,) cemsidomide achieved a 53% overall response rate (ORR). At the 75 µg dose level, cemsidomide achieved a 40% ORR. Across all doses evaluated, cemsidomide achieved a 36% ORR.
Key new data include:
Responses deepened over time across the cemsidomide 75 µg and 100 µg dose levels: At 75 µg, one patient whose best response was previously a partial response (PR) deepened to a very good partial response (VGPR).At 100 µg, several patients achieved a deeper response: One patient whose best response was previously a PR deepened to a stringent complete response (sCR)One patient whose best response was previously a PR deepened to a VGPR Minimal residual disease (MRD) negativity was achieved in two patients who achieved a sCR and complete response (CR) at 100 µg.
ORR was consistent across key subgroups:
ORR % (95% confidence interval (CI))
All Doses
Prior CAR-T or TCE 37% (24, 51)
Prior BCMA 33% (21, 48)
Prior Lines of Therapy > 5 Lines 33% (20, 48)
100 µg (RP2D)
Prior CAR-T or TCE 53% (28, 77)
Prior BCMA 47% (21, 73)
Prior Lines of Therapy > 5 Lines 47% (21, 73)
Durable responses were observed across all dose levels: Patients experienced a median duration of response of 7.9 months (95% CI, 3.0 – non-evaluable).Seven patients remain on treatment currently.
Cemsidomide in combination with dexamethasone was generally well tolerated. Incidences of on-target neutropenia remained manageable; 42 patients (58%) experienced Grade 3/4 neutropenia. All treatment emergent adverse events were manageable with no discontinuations deemed related to cemsidomide and minimal dose reductions (five patients; 7%).
UPCOMING INVESTOR EVENTS
June 18, 2026 at 9 am ET: C4T will host an educational webinar with Nisha Joseph, M.D., associate professor at the Winship Cancer Institute at Emory University and investigator in the cemsidomide clinical trials to discuss the evolving multiple myeloma landscape, the role of IKZF1/3 degradation in treating multiple myeloma, and cemsidomide’s profile.
About Cemsidomide
Cemsidomide is an investigational, next-generation orally bioavailable MonoDAC® degrader (molecular glue) of IKZF1/3, transcription factors foundational to multiple myeloma biology. Data from the fully enrolled Phase 1 trial show cemsidomide’s differentiated safety and tolerability profile and potentially class-leading anti-myeloma activity that support the potential for durable outcomes.
About Multiple Myeloma
Multiple myeloma is a blood cancer that affects plasma cells in the bone marrow. It is the second most common blood cancer, with approximately 36,000 people in the United States diagnosed each year. Multiple myeloma is characterized by cycles of remission and relapse, which leads to patients needing multiple lines of therapy to manage this persistent disease. More than 175,000 patients in the United States are estimated to be living with or in remission from myeloma. However, despite treatment advances, approximately 40% of patients do not survive beyond five years.
About IKZF1/3 Degradation
Targeted degradation of IKZF1 (Ikaros) and IKF3 (Aiolos) is a foundational therapeutic strategy to treat multiple myeloma, a blood cancer affecting plasma cells. IKZF1/3 degradation leads to downregulation of IRF4, which promotes myeloma cell death. IKZF1/3 degradation also activates T-cells, which contributes to broader anti-myeloma response. For decades, IKZF1/3 degradation has been used in approved therapies for multiple myeloma. Next-generation IKZF1/3 degraders are being developed to leverage advances in targeted protein degradation research while continuing to address the biology foundational to multiple myeloma.
About the MOMENTUM Trial
MOMENTUM (Multi-center trial Of cemsidoMidE iN relapsed/refracTory mUltiple Myeloma) is a Phase 2, open-label, single-arm study to evaluate the efficacy, safety, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of cemsidomide in combination with dexamethasone in patients with relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma. Data from the Phase 1 trial identified 100 µg as the recommended Phase 2 dose. The primary endpoint is overall response rate per International Myeloma Working Group response criteria, as assessed by an independent review committee. Approximately 100 patients who have received at least three prior anti-myeloma regimens that must have included an IKZF1/3 degrader, a proteasome inhibitor, an anti-CD38 antibody, and a T-cell engager or CAR-T therapy will be enrolled in the trial. More information is available at clinicaltrials.gov (NCT07284758).
About Cemsidomide in Combination With Elranatamab (ELREXFIO®)
The Phase 1b trial is designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability and preliminary efficacy of cemsidomide and dexamethasone in combination with elranatamab, an FDA-approved B-cell maturation antigen CD3 targeted bispecific antibody. Data generated from the cemsidomide Phase 1 trial in relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma demonstrate robust T-cell activation and cytokine expression across multiple doses. By activating immune T-cells, cemsidomide, when combined with a BCMAxCD3 bispecific such as elranatamab, may amplify the anti-myeloma immune response and lead to deeper and more durable responses. The study will evaluate different cemsidomide dose levels (beginning with 75 µg, with the opportunity to simultaneously explore 50 µg and 100 µg) in patients who have received one to four prior lines of therapy, which must have consisted of at least one IKZF1/3 degrader. Exclusion criteria for patients include those who have received prior treatment with a BCMA-directed T-cell engager or BCMA-directed CAR-T therapy. More information is available at clinicaltrials.gov (NCT07280013).

“During the first quarter, we made strong progress advancing cemsidomide as a potential best-in-class IKZF1/3 degrader for the treatment of multiple myeloma, highlighted by the initiation of two new clinical trials and plans to begin an additional combination trial next year. We believe our clinical development path further supports the advancement of IKZF1/3 degradation – the only mechanism targeting a central transcriptional dependency in multiple myeloma – and will help position cemsidomide as a potentially foundational therapy for these patients with relapsed refractory disease,” said Andrew Hirsch, president and chief executive officer of C4 Therapeutics. “In addition to these clinical advances, we also expanded our partnership with Roche through a new collaboration focused on degrader-antibody conjugates, broadening the reach of targeted protein degradation in cancer. Supported by a strong balance sheet through key value inflection points, we remain focused on advancing our portfolio to deliver the next generation of targeted protein degrader medicines to patients.”
FIRST QUARTER 2026 HIGHLIGHTS AND RECENT ACHIEVEMENTS
Planning is underway to initiate an additional Phase 1b trial evaluating cemsidomide in combination with approved multiple myeloma (MM) therapies. The trial will include two treatment arms: (1) cemsidomide, dexamethasone, and a proteasome inhibitor, and (2) cemsidomide, dexamethasone, and a CD38 antibody, for the relapsed refractory (RR) MM patients. Trial initiation is expected in the first half of 2027 with the goal of further establishing cemsidomide’s profile as a potentially foundational therapy across multiple lines of MM treatment.
Data from the Phase 1 trial evaluating cemsidomide in combination with dexamethasone in RRMM was accepted as a poster presentation at the European Hematology Annual (EHA) Congress taking place from June 11 – June 14, 2026, in Stockholm, Sweden. Enrollment was completed in September 2025, and the poster presentation will include further analysis from the ongoing trial.
A trial-in-progress poster highlighting the Phase 2 MOMENTUM trial evaluating cemsidomide in combination with dexamethasone in RRMM was accepted at the 2026 American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) Annual Meeting taking place from May 29 – June 2, 2026, in Chicago, Illinois.
The first patient was dosed in the Phase 1b trial in March 2026. The trial is evaluating cemsidomide and dexamethasone in combination with elranatamab (ELREXFIO®), B-cell maturation antigen CD3 targeted bispecific antibody, for earlier lines of MM treatment.
The first patient was dosed in the Phase 2 MOMENTUM trial in February 2026. The trial is evaluating cemsidomide in combination with dexamethasone in MM for the fourth line or later. The trial is expected to enroll approximately 100 patients and is on track to complete enrollment by the end of Q1 2027.
Based on the evolving treatment landscape for EGFR mutated non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), capital priorities, and available clinical data to date, C4T has made the decision to not advance CFT8919, an EGFR L858R degrader, into the next phase of clinical development outside of Greater China at this time.
C4T entered into a new collaboration agreement with Roche in April 2026, to advance research in the emerging degrader-antibody conjugate (DAC) modality. C4T and Roche will combine antibody-drug conjugation and targeted protein degradation to develop a new way to treat cancers. In May 2026, C4T received an upfront payment of $20 million.

Next-Generation Cancer Therapies Post Breakthrough Results Across Multiple Tumor TypesMarch 5, 2026 9:00 AM
PR Newswire (US)
Issued on behalf of Oncolytics Biotech Inc.VANCOUVER, BC, March 5, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Equity-Insider.com News Commentary — The five-year cancer survival rate in the United States has reached a record 70%, reflecting decades of progress in early detection, targeted therapy, and immunotherapy[1]. Yet cancer remains the second-leading cause of death worldwide, with an estimated 2.1 million new diagnoses expected in 2026 alone and mortality rates still climbing among younger populations[2]. Companies delivering next-generation oncology treatments across multiple tumor types include Oncolytics Biotech (NASDAQ: ONCY), Vir Biotechnology (NASDAQ: VIR), Iovance Biotherapeutics (NASDAQ: IOVA), C4 Therapeutics (NASDAQ: CCCC), and Immunocore (NASDAQ: IMCR).
The global oncology market is projected to nearly triple from $279.98 billion to $748.17 billion by 2035, with North America commanding a 43% market share[3]. The immuno-oncology segment alone is expected to grow at a compound annual rate of approximately 21% over the next five years, driven by checkpoint inhibitors, cell therapies, and cancer vaccines collectively redefining standards of care[4].Oncolytics Biotech (NASDAQ: ONCY) has launched a study that could reshape how doctors treat one of the most stubborn forms of colorectal cancer. The company's randomized Phase 2 trial, REO 033, will evaluate pelareorep in combination with bevacizumab and FOLFIRI in second-line RAS-mutated (which includes KRAS), microsatellite-stable metastatic colorectal cancer, a patient population where current treatments offer limited benefit and new options are urgently needed."I am honored to lead this study as I have a long track record working with pelareorep and have witnessed its ability to improve patient outcomes in a meaningful way," said Dr. Sanjay Goel, Professor of Medicine at Rutgers Cancer Institute of New Jersey. "The colorectal cancer data we recorded in the REO 022 study continues to be compelling to this day, as evidenced by the Fast Track Designation, and I hope we can generate additional exciting data in this new trial to support registration."The confidence behind REO 033 stems from compelling data generated in a previous clinical study. Pelareorep combined with bevacizumab and FOLFIRI demonstrated 27 months of overall survival and 16.6 months of progression-free survival, compared to 11.2 and 5.7 months for the standard of care. Objective response rate was 33% versus approximately 10% for the standard of care, more than tripling the benchmark in a notoriously difficult-to-treat population. Notably, this treatment regimen was granted Fast Track Designation by the FDA earlier this year."The potential to improve clinical outcomes compared to the standard of care in the second-line setting would have the potential to benefit patients around the world who are affected by colorectal cancer," said Dr. Van Morris, Associate Professor in the Department of Gastrointestinal Medical Oncology at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center. "An immunotherapy with the potential to improve outcomes would improve treatment options in colorectal cancer and would be highly welcomed, especially as we are seeing more and more patients being diagnosed with colorectal cancer."The global market for second-line treatment in KRAS-mutant, microsatellite-stable metastatic colorectal cancer runs between $3-5 billion annually. The study will randomize 60 patients to either the pelareorep combination or a control arm of bevacizumab and FOLFIRI, with objective response rate as the primary endpoint. Oncolytics expects to open the first study site later this month, with additional clinical sites added in quick succession, and preliminary data is expected by year-end 2026.CONTINUED… Read this and more news for Oncolytics Biotech at:https://equity-insider.com/2025/03/18/is-oncolytics-biotech-the-markets-most-undervalued-cancer-opportunity/In other industry developments:Vir Biotechnology (NASDAQ: VIR) has reported positive Phase 1 results for VIR-5500, a PSMA-targeting T-cell engager in metastatic prostate cancer. Dose-dependent anti-tumor activity was observed, with 82% PSA50 and 53% PSA90 declines and objective responses in 45% of RECIST (Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors)-evaluable patients at higher dose cohorts, representing a meaningful signal in a heavily pretreated population."We are encouraged by VIR-5500's safety and tolerability profile and the early signals of durable anti-tumor activity in a heavily pre-treated population, which validate our PRO-XTEN® masking strategy aimed at achieving a differentiated therapeutic index," said Marianne De Backer, CEO of Vir Biotechnology. "Based on these data, we are advancing dose-expansion cohorts and plan to initiate our registrational trial in 2027. We want to thank the patients in our Phase 1 program and their families for participating in the development of VIR-5500."The company has entered a global collaboration with Astellas to develop and commercialize VIR-5500, providing financial validation of the PRO-XTEN platform's potential to address unmet needs across solid tumor indications.Iovance Biotherapeutics (NASDAQ: IOVA) has announced positive results from the first clinical trial of TIL cell therapy in advanced undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma (UPS) and dedifferentiated liposarcoma (DDLPS). The study demonstrated a 50% objective response rate with one-time treatment of lifileucel in soft tissue sarcoma subtypes where treatment options remain severely limited."In the first clinical trial of a TIL cell therapy in UPS and DDLPS, one-time treatment with lifileucel demonstrated compelling and unprecedented response rates with the potential to address a significant unmet need in patients who are refractory to frontline standard of care," said Lauren Baker Banks, MD, PhD, Sarcoma Medical Oncologist at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center. "Patients with UPS and DDLPS suffer from high disease burden, poor quality of life, and a lack of effective treatments, including no approved immunotherapy options. In the second-line setting, mPFS for many patients is only a few months with mOS less than a year. We look forward to presenting these results at a medical conference in 2026."Iovance's AMTAGVI became the first FDA-approved TIL therapy in February 2024, establishing the company as the pioneer in commercially available tumor-infiltrating lymphocyte treatments.C4 Therapeutics (NASDAQ: CCCC) has dosed the first patient in the Phase 2 MOMENTUM trial of cemsidomide, an oral IKZF1/3 degrader for relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma. The study will evaluate cemsidomide in combination with dexamethasone, building on the compelling anti-myeloma activity observed in early-phase studies."Initiating the Phase 2 MOMENTUM trial, which builds upon the compelling anti-myeloma activity and differentiated safety profile established in the Phase 1 trial, is a critical step for cemsidomide to become a foundational therapy for multiple myeloma patients, who are in need of a safe, oral, and convenient treatment option," said Len Reyno, Chief Medical Officer of C4 Therapeutics.

C4 Therapeutics Announces First Patient Dosed in Phase 2 MOMENTUM Trial of Cemsidomide, an Oral IKZF1/3 Degrader, in Combination with Dexamethasone for Relapsed/Refractory Multiple Myeloma
Enrollment for Phase 2 MOMENTUM Trial Expected to Be Completed in Q1 2027
Phase 1b Trial of Cemsidomide in Combination with Elranatamab on Track to Initiate in Q2 2026
WATERTOWN, Mass., Feb. 23, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- C4 Therapeutics, Inc. (C4T) (Nasdaq: CCCC), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company dedicated to advancing targeted protein degradation science, today announced that the first patient has been dosed in the Phase 2 MOMENTUM trial evaluating cemsidomide in combination with dexamethasone for the treatment of relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM).
“Initiating the Phase 2 MOMENTUM trial, which builds upon the compelling anti-myeloma activity and differentiated safety profile established in the Phase 1 trial, is a critical step for cemsidomide to become a foundational therapy for multiple myeloma patients, who are in need of a safe, oral, and convenient treatment option,” said Len Reyno, chief medical officer of C4 Therapeutics. “With this milestone accomplished, we are also on track to initiate the Phase 1b trial of cemsidomide in combination with elranatamab in the second quarter, as we continue to advance our regulatory strategy that could deliver two accelerated approval paths in multiple myeloma.”
The Phase 2 MOMENTUM trial is an open-label, single-arm, multicenter study to assess anti-myeloma activity and further characterize the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of cemsidomide, an oral IKZF1/3 degrader, in combination with dexamethasone in RRMM patients for the fourth line or later. The trial will enroll approximately 100 patients to evaluate cemsidomide at the 100 µg dose level. Cemsidomide is administered with a daily dosing schedule of 14 days on and 14 days off, and dexamethasone is dosed once a week. The primary endpoint is the overall response rate per the International Myeloma Working Group response criteria as assessed by an independent review committee. Secondary endpoints will evaluate a range of additional safety and efficacy measures.
The Phase 2 MOMENTUM trial is part of a broader development strategy for cemsidomide, which also includes a Phase 1b study of cemsidomide in combination with elranatamab (ELREXFIO®). Elranatamab is an FDA-approved B-cell maturation antigen CD3 targeted bispecific antibody. Together, these trials support cemsidomide’s use across multiple lines of treatment.
ANTICIPATED UPCOMING MILESTONES
Phase 1b trial of cemsidomide in combination with elranatamab is on track to initiate in Q2 2026.
Further analysis of the completed Phase 1 trial of cemsidomide in combination with dexamethasone is expected in mid-2026.
Enrollment for Phase 2 MOMENTUM trial is expected to be completed in Q1 2027.
About Cemsidomide
Cemsidomide is an investigational, orally bioavailable molecular glue degrader (MonoDAC® degrader) of IKZF1/3, transcription factors foundational to multiple myeloma biology. Data from the Phase 1 trial, which has completed enrollment, show cemsidomide’s differentiated safety and tolerability profile and potentially class-leading anti-myeloma activity that support the potential for durable outcomes.
About the MOMENTUM Trial
MOMENTUM (Multi-center trial Of cemsidoMidE iN relapsed/refracTory mUltiple Myeloma) is a Phase 2, open-label, single-arm, study to evaluate efficacy, safety, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of cemsidomide in combination with dexamethasone in patients with relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma. Data from the Phase 1 trial identified 100 µg as the recommended Phase 2 dose. The primary endpoint is overall response rate per International Myeloma Working Group response criteria, as assessed by an independent review committee. Approximately 100 patients who have received at least three prior anti-myeloma regimens that must have included an IKZF1/3 degrader, a proteasome inhibitor, an anti-CD38 antibody, and a T-cell engager or CAR-T therapy will be enrolled in the trial. More information is available at clinicaltrials.gov (NCT07284758).
About Cemsidomide in Combination With Elranatamab (ELREXFIO®)
The Phase 1b trial is designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability and preliminary efficacy of cemsidomide in combination with elranatamab, an FDA-approved B-cell maturation antigen CD3 targeted bispecific antibody. The study will evaluate different cemsidomide dose levels (beginning with 75 µg, with the opportunity to simultaneously explore 50 µg and 100 µg) in patients who have received one to four prior lines of therapy, which must have consisted of at least one IKZF1/3 degrader. Exclusion criteria for patients include those who have received prior treatment with a BCMA-directed T-cell engager or BCMA-directed CAR-T therapy. More information is available at clinicaltrials.gov (NCT07280013).
About Multiple Myeloma
Multiple myeloma (MM) is a rare blood cancer affecting plasma cells. Approximately 36,000 people in the United States are diagnosed with MM each year. Approved IKZF1/3 degraders remain foundational therapies across lines of MM treatment. Despite advances, including immune-directed approaches, most patients ultimately relapse, underscoring a growing need for new therapeutics options that continue to leverage IKZF1/3 degradation to drive myeloma cell death and T-cell activation.

C4 Therapeutics Announces Clinical Trial Collaboration and Supply Agreement with Pfizer for the Combination of Cemsidomide and Elranatamab for the Treatment of Relapsed/Refractory Multiple Myeloma
WATERTOWN, Mass., Oct. 01, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- C4 Therapeutics, Inc. (C4T) (Nasdaq: CCCC), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company dedicated to advancing targeted protein degradation science, today announced that it has entered into a clinical trial collaboration and supply agreement with Pfizer Inc. Under the terms of the agreement, Pfizer will supply elranatamab (ELREXFIO®), a B-cell maturation antigen CD3 targeted bispecific antibody (BCMAxCD3 bispecific), to C4T for its upcoming Phase 1b trial.
The Phase 1b trial will evaluate the safety and tolerability of cemsidomide, an IKZF1/3 degrader, and dexamethasone in combination with elranatamab as a second line or later therapy for patients with multiple myeloma. This Phase 1b trial, which is expected to initiate in Q2 2026, will seek to establish an optimal dose for cemsidomide in combination with elranatamab. Under the terms of the agreement, Pfizer will supply elranatamab at no cost while C4T will sponsor and conduct the trial.
“We look forward to initiating this trial to evaluate cemsidomide in combination with elranatamab in the hopes we can develop a new treatment regimen and potentially improve outcomes for multiple myeloma patients in earlier lines of therapy,” said Andrew Hirsch, president and chief executive officer of C4 Therapeutics. “Our supply agreement with Pfizer creates an opportunity for cemsidomide to be combined with elranatamab, which is on the path to potentially becoming a standard of care BCMAxCD3 bispecific in a growing market.”
Data generated from the cemsidomide Phase 1 trial in relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma demonstrate robust T-cell activation and cytokine expression across multiple doses. By activating immune T-cells, cemsidomide, when combined with a BCMAxCD3 bispecific such as elranatamab, may amplify the anti-myeloma immune response and lead to higher quality of responses.
