Treatments for Multiple Myeloma

If you are not experiencing any signs or symptoms of multiple myeloma, treatment may not be necessary immediately. However, our doctors will monitor your condition regularly for any signs that the disease is advancing. If you have symptoms, treatment can help control complications of the cancer, alleviate pain, stabilize your condition, and slow the development of multiple myeloma.

For patients who do need treatment, the following therapies are offered at Sheba:

Chemotherapy

Chemotherapy drugs are used to kill cancer cells. Chemo can be given intravenously or taken orally in pill form. High doses of chemo are also used before a bone marrow/stem cell transplant is done.

Targeted Therapy

This drug treatment focuses on particular abnormalities within the cancer cells that enable them to survive. Many targeted drugs that are used for multiple myeloma block the action of a certain substance in the cells that deconstructs proteins. Attacking this part of the myeloma cells causes the cells to die. Targeted therapy may be given through a vein in your arm or as a pill.
