program overview
Program Description
While relapse is inevitable in multiple myeloma (MM), current treatment strategies prolong response duration and progression-free survival at each step of care. With longer survival comes the need to proactively manage disease- and treatment-related toxicities, and with oral therapies, the need to maintain adherence with sometimes complicated dosing schedules.
Format
eNewsletter with interactive benchmarking
