#IMS26 @SagarLonialMD presenting EXCALIBER-RRMM. Finally, the Iber-Dd CELMoD data we've been eagerly awaiting! Rationale for presenting now, he just explained: Request from 🇺🇸 FDA not to release MRD-CR-based data before their formal approval. This is why I attend conferences! https://t.co/ub3NWs6xtH
