IMS 2026 | Concept of cure in multiple myeloma: a patients perspective

Jenny Ahlstrom, HealthTree Foundation, South Jordan, UT, discusses the concept of a cure in multiple myeloma from a patient’s perspective, noting that while patients are excited about the possibility of a cure, they are also cautious because of the risk of relapse. She notes that patients generally consider being off treatment as a key aspect of a cure, but emphasizes the need for ongoing monitoring and careful communication from the medical community to avoid misconceptions. This interview took place at the 23rd International Myeloma Society (IMS) Annual Meeting in Glasgow, UK.
