ECM | MULTIPLE MYELOMA IN THE ERA OF IMMUNOTHERAPY: A REAPPRAISAL

Multiple myeloma (MM) is a heterogeneous neoplastic disease, which is able to evade the endogenous immune response through various mechanisms. As a result, the immune system of patients with MM is extremely altered, favouring the development and growth of tumour cells.
Unlike classic drugs with direct cytotoxic action, immunotherapy relies primarily on the lysis of tumour cells induced by components of the immune system. This peculiarity allows immunotherapy to be complementary to other anti-myeloma agents and to overcome possible resistance to conventional drugs.
Several immunotherapeutic drugs such as immunomodulatory drugs, monoclonal antibodies, bispecific antibodies and CAR-T cell therapy are already part of clinical practice in MM.
The aim of the conference is to evaluate the correct use and sequencing of the therapies available today for the treatment of MM through a confrontation by a panel of international experts from Austria, Germany and Italy.
The event is addressed to an interdisciplinary medical audience not only from Haematology but also from the oncological, internistic, radiological and nephrological fields.
