Omar Nadeem, MD, Discusses Immuno-PRISM Trial Video

Omar Nadeem, MD, Discusses Immuno-PRISM Trial

At #ASH23, Omar Nadeem, MD, Dana-Farber, presented findings from the phase 2 clinical trial, Immuno-PRISM. Results suggest early use of #immunotherapy may have even greater benefit for people with high-risk smoldering myeloma.
