What does “cure” look like in myeloma?
Professor Philippe Moreau, President of the International Myeloma Society, and Head of Haematology at the University Hospital of Nantes, France explains the emerging ...concept of cure, why experts believe it is now appropriate to discuss it, and what it could mean for people living with myeloma.
He discusses how advances in treatment, particularly newer immunotherapies used alongside established approaches such as autologous stem cell transplantation, have dramatically improved patient outcomes. The conversation explores the proposed international consensus definition of a cure, including the importance of being off treatment and maintaining minimal residual disease (MRD) negativity for at least five years.
Professor Moreau also explains:
Why sustained MRD negativity is considered a key indicator of long-term disease control
Which treatment approaches may make a cure possible
Why access to the latest therapies varies between countries and affects patient outcomes
Which patients are currently most likely to achieve a cure
Why doctors emphasise hope while recognising that not every patient will achieve the same outcomes
The interview concludes by discussing how continuing advances in myeloma treatment are bringing life expectancy for some patients closer to that of the general population.
Please note: This interview reflects current expert opinion and emerging evidence. A cure is not yet achievable for everyone with myeloma, and treatment decisions should always be discussed with your healthcare team.
