Major advances in the treatment of multiple myeloma in American Society of Hematology annual meeting 2020

Treatment of multiple myeloma (MM) has advanced dramatically in the past two decades. However, under the conditions of the COVID-19 pandemic, treatment strategies have been modified accordingly. Numerous novel agents, updated trials, and major advances in myeloma have been reported in the American S...
