Event Description

Research and approval of drug treatments for myeloma continues to move forward, despite the limitations imposed by the pandemic, increasing options, improving quality of life, and extending life expectancy for patients.  It is important for myeloma patients to understand what may be available in the foreseeable future to plan their treatment strategies in the coming years with their physicians and nurses.

Drs. Jesus Berdeja and Sagar Lonial discussed two new classes of drugs for myeloma, one recently approved by the FDA, and one in development on Saturday, August 22, 2020.
