Of the 46 minimal residual disease (MRD)-evaluable patients, 100% achieved MRD negativity by next-generation flow at 10-5 sensitivity threshold after cycle six.

Overall, 85.7% of patients achieved a complete response or better (≥CR) and were MRD-negative at cycle six, and 96% of patients successfully completed stem cell mobilisation with a median total stem cell...
