Bruno Paiva, PhD, University of Navarra, Pamplona, Spain, briefly discusses how peripheral blood monitoring of measurable residual disease (MRD) in multiple myeloma (MM) may be able to supplement MRD testing using bone marrow aspirates. There is an opportunity to use peripheral blood MRD assays to reduce the number of times invasive bone marrow testing is performed, especially in patients under observation or undergoing less intensive stages of treatment. This interview took place at the 29th Congress of the European Hematology Association (EHA) in Madrid, Spain.
