Multiple myeloma is highly heterogeneous from diagnosis, which makes it a complex disease.

Dr Fredrik Schjesvold explores the importance of adding a new Mechanism of Action (MoA) in relapsed/refectory multiple myeloma (RRMM) focusing on:
- The heterogeneity at diagnosis, as the heterogenic clones vary in their sensitivity to different treatments, and discusses genomic aberrations and drug sensitivity
- The impact of changing and adding drug classes in relapse treatment

Clinical Takeaways
- Multiple myeloma is a highly heterogeneous disease from diagnosis
- The heterogeneic clones vary in their sensitivity to different treatments. Therefore, combinations are preferable
- Each new treatment should preferably include drugs with novel mechanisms of action, which is more important when multiple myeloma becomes refractory rather than just exposed

This is part 2 of a 3-part video series.
