The Role of Genomics in the Development and Treatment of Multiple Myeloma: Understanding the Challenges and Opportunities

Genomic advances in myeloma now guide treatment selection and detect minimal residual disease through blood tests.

A comprehensive review of multiple myeloma genomics covers recent advances in driver mutations, copy number variations, epigenetic changes, and non-coding RNAs using high-throughput sequencing technologies. It outlines clinical applications including risk stratification, treatment selection, and liquid biopsy-based MRD monitoring.
