ISA 2022 | Advances & unanswered questions about the role of MRD in AL amyloidosis

Andrew Staron, MD, Boston Medical Centre, Boston, MA, comments on some of the questions surrounding the role of MRD in AL amyloidosis. Whilst MRD seems to have prognostic importance in this disease, assessment timing and frequency remain unclear. In addition, data has suggested that tracking MRD over time may help predict patients at risk of hematologic relapse. However, further studies are required to determine whether providing additional treatment for patients who are MRD-positive is beneficial. This interview took place at the 2022 International Symposium on Amyloidosis (ISA) held in Heidelberg, Germany.
