Advances in multiple myeloma

Multiple myeloma is a malignant disease characterised by a clonal population of plasma cells in the bone marrow. The disease occurs in the elderly and results in lytic bone lesions, blood cytopenias and the production of monoclonal immunoglobulin heavy and light chains. Multiple myeloma is an incurable condition and therefore treatment is reserved for symptomatic patients or those with documented bone lesions.
