Just curious. If you are high risk SMM why the watch and wait? Did your most recent BMB include a FISH panel?

Might want to check out the following:
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved Darzalex Faspro (daratumumab and hyaluronidase-fihj) on November 6, 2025, as the first and only authorized treatment for adults with high-risk smoldering multiple myeloma (SMM). It is given as a subcutaneous injection to intercept disease progression before it becomes active multiple myeloma.

Apparently has been shown to delay progression.

@rimrod, @righty01
I was diagnosed w high risk SMM a year ago. My oncologist started me on Darzalex Faspro in March of this year and it has brought my numbers down remarkably. I feel good about taking treatment, doing something other than “waiting.” Ask your doctor if this treatment might be right for you. Good luck.
