The Multiple Myeloma Hub was pleased to speak to Shaji Kumar, Mayo Clinic, Rochester, US. We asked, What are the key considerations of the updated guidelines for early relapsed multiple myeloma?

What are the key considerations of the updated guidelines for early relapsed multiple myeloma?

Kumar begins by defining the differences between early and late relapses in multiple myeloma. Kumar then references key considerations from the updated NCCN guidelines for multiple myeloma (https://jnccn.org/view/journals/jnccn/20/1/article-p8.xml), such as the use of 3-drug combinations rather than 2-drug combinations. Kumar also discusses the use of anti-CD38 antibodies, proteasome inhibitors, and immunomodulatory drugs in early relapsed multiple myeloma.
