Advances in Biology and Therapy of Multiple Myeloma Volume 1: Basic Science /

Despite the advances in conventional, and novel agent and high dose chemotherapy, multiple myeloma remains incurable. In order to overcome resistance to current therapies and improve patient outcome, novel biologically-based treatment approaches are being developed. Current translational research in...
