Dr. Guido Tricot discusses myeloma stem cell research and published results of clinical trials
Dr. Guido Tricot, MD, PhD, Holden Cancer Center, University of Iowa Interview Date: July 12, 2013
Dr. Tricot discusses his investigation into ways of finding and treating the remaining cells (myeloma stem cells) that still can exist after typical treatments of transplantation and combination therapies. He discusses how immunotherapies will be used in combination with existing treatments and how with the upcoming ability to personalize treatment based on genetics, we may be able to separate out patients that need intensive treatment and those that can be cured without intensive treatment based on their myeloma's characteristics. He cites the most recent results from tandem transplantation protocols with a review of how therapies can be advanced beyond transplantation.
