What Treatment Options Have You Used For Relapsing MM?
A MyMyelomaTeam Member asked a question đź’­

Unfortunately, after my SCT in Dec 2022, the MM has relapsed. It only took 10 months before it started to show up in blood tests. I had a bone marrow biopsy and the plasma cell percentage has now doubled from the value when I was initially diagnosed. So I'm curious to know if others have relapsed after a SCT and what was the next method of treatment used
We are looking to get me on Car-T cell therapy, but I do not yet qualify based on the number of refractory treatments (drugs that did not… read more

A MyMyelomaTeam Member asked a question đź’­

Ron's had 6 of 8 weekly 4+ hour Darzalex infusions. Hearing about the faspro injection, we're wondering now why his oncologist chose the infusion route. We'll be asking about his reasoning at the next appointment, but interested in getting team input meanwhile.

Thanks Donna. He didn't mention how it was administered, so I'll ask him. It seemed to go well, and he was sure glad to be home sooner!

Is It Normal To Have High Light Chains 3 Months After A Stem Cell Transplant
A MyMyelomaTeam Member asked a question đź’­

My blood test 3 months after my stem cell transplant has a high light chain number compared to normal people. A 36 as compared to my high over 2000 when diagnosed but higher than when I harvested the stem cells. The results from the bone biopsy won’t be back until next week.

Is this light chain number normal after SCT?

I meet with my oncologist next week to get his answers and our plan of action.

ABECMA
A MyMyelomaTeam Member asked a question đź’­

Is anyone else disillusioned about the qualifying factors leading to getting ABECMA therapy? My oncologist recommends that I get the therapy. He contacted the top doctor at Siteman Cancer ctr here in st louis, missouri. He was sent all my records and it was determined that my multiple myeloma is being at a stalemate (kept from getting worse or better) by infusions of Impliciti and pomylidimide(25 days/30). So I'm doing good according to this other doctor. I have to get much worse before I'm… read more
