Most of us have heard of the multiple myeloma patient who achieved remission after receiving a massive dose of a measles vaccine. Now here’s your chance to hear more about the treatment, patient, and story behind it from the treating physician himself! On Friday, May 30 at 1PM CDT, mPatient Myeloma Radio will interview Dr. Stephen Russell, MD, PhD of the Mayo Clinic. He will discuss how he and other collaborators used MV-NIS, an engineered measles virus, to selectively destroy myeloma plasma cells. To tune in, simply dial 347-637-2631 at show time or listen live via computer.
