## Resource

This week, we turn our attention to what we do in the maintenance setting for management of myeloma. At this point, our patient has gone through initial therapy; for patients who are able to undergo a transplant, we have consolidated their disease with a transplant; and now, we want to maintain that response using a lower dose of therapy, all while trying to minimize toxicity and maximize the patient’s quality of life. We discuss this in detail in this week’s episode! Content: - Why is lenolidomide (revlimid) our current standard of care? - What data do we have to add anti CD38 antibodies? - How is MRD being considered in this space? ** This episode is sponsored by Primum!
