The FDA granted accelerated approval to Bristol Myers Squibb’s oral iberdomide (marketed as Zenbexus) for multiple myeloma that has returned or become resistant, expanding the agency’s use of accelerated pathways in plasma-cell malignancies.

The move highlights how real-world scrutiny and data substantiation can quickly change the accessibility of rare-disease therapies even after prior review steps.
