19 Apr 2023

Description

In this episode, we discuss the management of multiple myeloma in LMICs with Dr. Andrés Gómez-De León from UANL, Monterrey, Mexico, and Dr. Aditya Jandial from PGIMER, Chandigarh, India. This episode was inspired by an article in Lancet Haematology titled “The Underrepresented Majority”, which highlighted the lack of access to some of the basic anti-myeloma drugs in LMICs and the resulting disparity in global outcomes. Here are some of the sections discussed in this episode:03:33 Diagnostic workup of myeloma in LMICs15:46 Induction therapy for new diagnosed transplant-eligible myeloma27:17 Early Transplant vs Delayed Transplant in the Context of LMICs33:11 Maintenance therapy 37:27 Management of relapsed myelomaAffordability of novel drugs in myeloma: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/29461639/45:30 Clinical Trials in LMICs.
