016 Life After Transplant: Maintenance Treatment in Myeloma Care
-
Narrado por:

Welcome to The Myeloma Minutes. We've now moved to a fortnightly release schedule, so you can now hear us every-other Thursday.
This episode explores what happens after a stem cell transplant in multiple myeloma, focusing on consolidation and maintenance treatments - especially the use of lenalidomide - and how these therapies aim to sustain remission and quality of life.
📌Key Takeaways:
- Maintenance therapy isn't just more treatment - it's your path to a longer, better-quality remission.
- Side effects like diarrhoea and cramps are common - but manageable, and shouldn't be suffered in silence.
-
A future with shorter or even time-limited maintenance might be closer than you think.
