Beyond Bone Marrow: Early Detection of Multiple Myeloma Progression with Peripheral Residual Disease

Oct 06, 2025
10:00AM - 11:00AM EDT
Online Event
Overview

We invite you to a special webinar with Dr. Bruno Paiva, an internationally recognized myeloma researcher, to learn about new and less invasive ways of keeping track of myeloma. By studying the blood instead of relying only on bone marrow tests, doctors may be able to follow the disease more comfortably and identify changes sooner. Dr. Paiva will explain how this research could improve quality of life for patients and help guide care in the years ahead.
