Understanding your lab values gives you a real advantage in the fight against myeloma. All the tests for light chains, bone marrow biopsies, genetic testing and other tests seem like burdens but each contribute to having an accurate picture of your cancer. Watch the following HealthTree University videos to get up to speed on this important aspect of your disease. You can watch the entire course at university.healthtree.org.

12.06    What are proteasome inhibitors?

 

12.07    What immunotherapies are used in myeloma?

 

12.08    What steroids are used in myeloma treatment, and why?

 

12.09    What is a Selective Inhibitor of Nuclear Export? (SINE)

 

12.1    Can you go over the history of novel/new drugs?

 

We’d like to thank our faculty who donated their time in creating these videos, including:

  • Alexander Lesokhin, MD
  • Ajai Chari, MD
  • Joshua Richter, MD
  • Philip McCarthy, MD
