Abstract
Frontline therapy for systemic amyloid light chain (AL) amyloidosis has evolved significantly with the approval of daratumumab in combination with bortezomib, cyclophosphamide, and dexamethasone, which has significantly improved rates of both hematologic and organ responses. Despite these advances, many patients eventually relapse, and there remains no established standard salvage regimen or optimal timing. In this review, we examine optimal timing of salvage regimens and currently available therapeutic options after daratumumab failure, including next-generation proteosome inhibitors or immunomodulatory drugs, autologous stem cell transplant, BCL-2 inhibitors, and emerging immunotherapeutic agents such as chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapy and bispecific antibodies.
