Mohty and Braunstein agree on the importance of auto-HSCT and on the fact that, when possible, it should not be delayed.They outline the value of upfront auto-HSCT even in the era of novel agents being developed for multiple myeloma. They also talk about consolidation and maintenance therapy after transplant. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
