  • Pathology demonstrated that BCMA-poitive malignant plasma cells exited in bone marrow or plamacytoma
  • Exited measurable lesions and in accordance with one of the following test indicators: serum M protein≥1 g/dl; urine M protein≥200 mg/24h; serum free light chain≥10 mg/dl; diagnosis of plasmacytoma by biopsy
  • The criteria for relapsed and refractory multiple myeloma: patients previously received at least 3 different prior treatment regimens for multiple myeloma, including protein inhibitors (eg: Bortezomib), and immunomodulator (eg: Revlimid), and have disease progression in the past 60 days
