Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Clinically significant cognitive impairment
For each timepoint in which the Cognitive Assessment Battery is assessed (baseline, 1-, 6-, and 12 months post-CAR-T), the overall clinically significant impairment will be determined as a binary variable. Clinically significant impairment will be determined if 2 individual cognitive tests (from ICCTF or Digit Span subtest) have a standardized score at least 1.5 standard deviations below the mean or if 1 individual cognitive test has a standardized score at least 2 standard deviations below the mean.
Baseline, 1-, 6-, and 12-months post-CAR-T
Secondary Outcomes (13)
Hopkins Verbal Learning Test - Revised (HVLT-R) total recall score
Baseline, 1-, 6-, and 12-months post-CAR-T
Hopkins Verbal Learning Test - Revised (HVLT-R) retention score %
Baseline, 1-, 6-, and 12-months post-CAR-T

Study Arms (1)
Patients with RRMM
RRMM patients being treated with SOC commercial BCMA CAR-T therapy
Interventions
Perform standardized neurocognitive testing at baseline and serially at 1-, 6-, and 12-months post-infusion.
Eligibility Criteria
Patients who have been scheduled to receive BCMA CAR-T therapy as their next line of therapy will be identified and approached for consent.
You may qualify if:
- Ability to understand and willingness to sign an IRB-approved informed consent
- Ability to retain independent decision-making capacity as per the enrolling investigator
- Age ≥ 18 years of age at the time of consent
- Scheduled to receive BCMA CAR-T therapy for RRMM as confirmed by the treating clinician
- Ability to read and understand the English language
- ECOG 0-2
- If actively taking benzodiazepine, must be able to hold for 3 hours prior to study assessments as per treating clinician
- Reliable access to internet access; a tablet, laptop and/or desktop computer with a camera; or willingness to come into the clinic to conduct study procedures as outlined in the Study Calendar- as per participant self-report
- Ability to complete required assessments, as determined by the treating clinician
You may not qualify if:
- Active central nervous system (CNS) disease
- Known neurodegenerative disease or major neurocognitive disorder
- Stroke and/or traumatic brain injury (TBI) within 12 months
- Concurrent investigational neuroactive drugs
