GPRC5D, G protein–coupled receptor family C group 5 member D; IMiD, immunomodulatory drug; PI, proteasome inhibitor; SCT, stem cell transplantation.

triple-class refractory means refractory to an IMiD, a PI, and a CD38-targeting antibody;

penta-drug refractory means refractory to lenalidomide, pomalidomide, bortezomib, carfilzomib, and a CD38-targeting antibody;

refractory disease is defined as progressive disease during therapy, no response (less than PR), or progressive disease within 60 days of stopping treatment, according to the International Uniform Response Criteria for Multiple Myeloma.
