How Multiple Myeloma Treatment Is CHANGING and BETTER for Myeloma Patients (Relapsed/Refractory)
Patient Advocate, Jack Aiello, is a 28-year survivor of multiple myeloma. When he was diagnosed, he was told he would only have 2 to 3 years to live and there were only 2 treatment options available. Jack underwent 2 transplants, then went onto a clinical trial for thalidomide but nothing worked until a third transplant.
In this discussion, he shares how since his diagnosis there are several exciting, game changing treatments for relapsed and refractory myeloma patients, more combinations of these drugs, and even more are in clinical trials.
Joining him in this conversation is Dr. Ajai Chari, the Director of Clinical Research at the Multiple Myeloma Program at Mount Sinai in New York and Dr. Sandy Wong, a blood disease specialist at University of California, San Francisco, with a special interest in multiple myeloma.
Together they discuss bispecific antibodies, treatment side effects and emerging clinical trials.
