I am a 73 years old woman but as my doctor says my biological age is 65 years old because i don't have the typical comorbilities that come with aging. I asked in many centers and the opinions split. The half believe that i should do one ASCT with MEL140 and the other half say that i should make one ASCT with MEL200. Yesterday after my last evaluation i was offered another different approach - Tandem ASCT with MEL140. Which do you think is the best choise regaring OS and EFS? My cytogenetics have shown del13 and del17. Best regards to all of you. Wish you Merry Christmas and a happy New Year.
