Multiple Myeloma Research Foundation Live Event: Precision Medicine and Big Data in Multiple Myeloma

You are invited to attend an educational dinner program entitled Precision Medicine and Big Data in Multiple Myeloma. In this continuing education activity, frequently asked questions gathered from the community will be addressed to myeloma experts. Their specific answers will then be integrated with key data and current debates regarding diagnosing, treating, and managing patients with Multiple Myeloma.

An “Ask the Experts” approach will be taken in order to provide answers to the most frequently asked questions!

• Outline an individualized treatment plan to achieve the desired response while balancing the risk for toxicities in high-risk and standard-risk myeloma patients
• Evaluate clinical data regarding the use of new agents in patients who acquire resistance to or relapse from their initial therapy
