Equecabtagene autoleucel is a BCMA CAR-T from IASO Bio and Innovent, approved in China in June 2023 for multiple myeloma that has returned after at least three lines of treatment. In the FUMANBA-1 trial about 96% of infused patients responded, most with deep minimal-residual-disease-negative remissions and few severe cytokine release reactions; it competes with cilta-cel and zevor-cel in China.
