Heather Landau, MD Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center Interview Date: February 28,  2017 

 Many multiple myeloma patients can also have amyloidosis - or protein buildup in specific organs. Dr. Heather Landau of the Memorial Sloan Kettering cancer center explains the different kinds of amyloidosis, current treatments and exciting clinical trials for these patients. These trials include myeloma drugs such as Ninlaro, carfilzomib, daratumumab and other standard treatments, but also a new drug called NEOD001 that can reverse amyloidosis in certain organs. This is a very informative show for amyloidosis patients with or without multiple myeloma.
