Is the treatment of high-risk SMM the way for achieving the cure?
During the 7th World Congress on Controversies in Multiple Myeloma (COMy), the Multiple Myeloma Hub hosted its first Satellite Symposium: Should 'cure' be the goal for multiple myeloma? María-Victoria Mateos, University Hospital of Salamanca, Salamanca, ES, answered: Is the treatment of high-risk smoldering multiple myeloma (SMM) the way for achieving the cure?
Is the treatment of high-risk SMM the way for achieving the cure?
In this presentation, Mateos discusses the progression of monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (MGUS) and SMM to MM from a molecular point of view. She explains the 2/20/20 risk stratification model for SMM, and the phase III clinical trials that have demonstrated a benefit in treating patients with high-risk SMM to delay the progression to overt MM. In her road map to cure MM, early treatment of SMM is a crucial step, and she presents two curative approaches being currently investigated in clinical trials.
