[Music] When should a patient consider a clinical trial? Always clinical trials is always what we would like to do is put you on first to, to move the field forward. I don't think there's ever a bad time for that. Certainly a lot of people will look after they've relapsed several times and the options become more limited. But even even upfront is a good time to look into trials. Frankly, sometimes there aren't trials available upfront because our current treatments work so well that we don't always have them open. But it's always good to look around and see if something's particularly of interest to you. Especially in myeloma, especially with all the progress being made right now, clinical trials should be considered at every phase of disease from new diagnosis, potentially at transplant, during maintenance, and certainly in the relapsed refractory setting. Why consider a clinical trial? The one other topic I would ask patients to consider is clinical trials. Whether you're a newly diagnosed patient or relapsed from prior treatments, there's a good chance. Well, I'm sure today whatever treatment of myeloma patient is taken is because treatment for patients that preceded you were on trials for those drugs. Trials are where a patient might indeed get access to a newer therapy that's not yet available, The patient on the trial is watched very carefully by their doctors and nurses, and I think that's important as well. So as a result, you might benefit from a new drug or at least getting the standard of care. And future patients may well benefit from the results of that trial in which you participate. So it's certainly a possible win win for all involved. [Music]
