Irene Ghobrial, MD, Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, Boston, MA, discusses the concept of monoclonal gammopathy of indeterminate potential (MGIP) as a stable premalignant entity preceding hematologic malignancy. She highlights that MGIP is a clonal condition with the same B-cell receptor sequences as monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (MGUS) and myeloma, and that over 80% of MGIP cases progress to MGUS or smoldering myeloma. This interview took place at the 67th ASH Annual Meeting and Exposition, held in Orlando, FL.
