Abstract | Introduction: As we have just stepped into a new decade of hopes, the mountain of knowledge learned from multiple myeloma (MM) remains unmatched among cancers. In the last decade alone, this rapid-sequence learning curve has led to regulatory approvals of eight drugs with mechanisms of actions representing five different areas of cell biology some of which made to the frontline setting, sparking debates about how to best sequence them in the treatment continuum of induction, consolidation, and maintenance and gained momentum with the realization of the implications of an effective upfront therapeutic approach with potential impact on survival. Areas covered: This review was written with an intent to introduce the reader to the current treatment approach of a newly diagnosed myeloma patient and acquaint with promising targets and mechanistic strategies. Medline and clinicaltrials.gov databases (2000-2020) and relevant meetings (ASH, ASCO, EHA, ESMO, IMW) reports were queried and guidelines (IMWG) were reviewed to distill to expert opinion in an inundating field. Expert opinion: Future holds promise with new targets on the horizon. It is likely that the new age of myeloma will belong to quadruplets with the addition of acellular or cellular biologics to first-generation novel agents, leading to new paradigms. |
