T-cells are an important part of your immune system, helping to recognize and attack cancer cells. But sometimes, T-cells become “exhausted” or less effective over time. In this video, we explain what T-cell exhaustion is, why it happens, and how it impacts myeloma treatments like CAR-T cell therapy and bispecific antibodies. Understanding T-cell exhaustion can help patients and caregivers learn why immune-based therapies may stop working and how researchers are developing new strategies to overcome this challenge.
