Data are presented as mean ± SD, median (interquartile range), or number (percentage), depending on the type of data.

P < .05 is bolded.

High-risk cytogenetics when any of following cytogenetics are present: del(17p), t(4;14) or t(14;16).

High BM burden was defined as ≥ 50% CD138-positive plasma cells in baseline ide-cel bone marrow core biopsy specimen.

Double-refractory disease: refractory to an immunomodulatory agent (IMiD) and proteasome inhibitor (PI).

Triple-refractory disease: refractory to an IMiD, PI, and an anti-CD38 monoclonal antibody.

Penta-refractory disease: refractory to lenalidomide, pomalidomide, bortezomib, carfilzomib, and daratumumab or isatuximab.

All multiple myeloma LC subtype means light-chain subtype for all patients with multiple myeloma (n = 78). Light-chain disease LC subtype means light-chain subtype for only light-chain subtype of multiple myeloma (n = 18 total).

IgH/CCND1 gene rearrangement, which is also called t(11;14). t(11;14) percentage mosaicism means the percentage of cells with loss of one IgH signal and gain of one CCND1 signal.

BM, bone marrow; CRP, C-reactive protein; FISH, fluorescent in situ hybridization; HSCT, hematopoietic stem cell transplant; IgH, immunoglobulin heavy chain; LC, light-chain; R-ISS, Revised International Staging System.
