Auch heute noch gibt es für Patienten mit multiplem Myelom kein Therapieverfahren mit einem gesicherten kurativen Potential. Im Gegensatz zu den 70er und 80er Jahren, in denen sich seit Einführung der Therapie mit Melphalan und Prednison durch Alexanian kein relevanter Therapiefortschritt ergeben hat, konnte all durch Etablierung von Hochdosischemotherapie mit Blutstammzelltransplantation eine signifikante Verbesserung der Überlebenszeit bei jüngeren Patienten erreicht werden. Weitere Verbesserungen der Therapieergebnisse haben sich insbesondere durch die Gabe von Bisphosphonaten und α-Interferon ergeben. Vor dem Hintergrund dieser aktuellen Entwicklungen soll ein Überblick über die derzeit möglichen Therapieoptionen bei Patienten mit multiplem Myelom gegeben werden.
