Abstract

In this issue of ONCOLOGY, Dingli and Rajkumar provide an expert review of novel therapies in multiple myeloma. As their work underscores, the rapid clinical development of the immunomodulatory drugs—specifically thalidomide (Thalomid) and lenalidomide (Revlimid), and the proteasome inhibitor bor­tezomib (Velcade)—has changed the therapeutic landscape of this disease, resulting in significant improvements in patient outcomes.[1]
