Case 2: 60-Year-Old Woman Following Induction Therapy for Active MM

Personalizing treatment regimens for multiple myeloma patients in both the frontline and salvage settings continues to pose a challenge for clinical oncologists, as newer therapeutic agents and combination treatments continue to expand the armamentarium. With this greater number of available agents comes the need for heightened attentiveness to identifying patients most likely to benefit from consolidation and maintenance therapies, effectively managing treatment-related toxicities, and selecting the most appropriate treatment upon relapse.

Case 2 resumes the case of Donna Medford, the patient introduced in Case 1. As a consultant on Donna’s case, your tasks will be to determine appropriate therapies and monitor her disease activity. This activity also features the Resource Library, which houses tools that can help clinicians more effectively manage patients with multiple myeloma.

Donna’s case begins with and can be reviewed in Multiple Myeloma Virtual Institute – Case 1: Adult Woman With Elevated Protein, which is available for additional CME credit at education.redmeded.com.
