IMS 2024 | Key takeaways from the iStopMM trial: screening for MGUS

In this video, Sigurdur Kristinsson, MD, PhD, University of Iceland, Reykjavík, Iceland, discusses key takeaways from the iStopMM trial (NCT03327597), which assessed the benefits and harms of screening for monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (MGUS). A new subgroup of MGUS known as light-chain MGUS has been redefined, and this study has also allowed for the earlier diagnosis of multiple myeloma. Importantly, screening has not had a negative impact on the mental health of individuals. This interview took place at the 21st International Myeloma Society (IMS) Annual Meeting, held in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
