A belated good morning to you, myeloma world.

How has your Friday been so far? Has April Fools' Day brought joy, con­ster­na­tion, or a bit of both to your life?

We were caught off guard this morning by some news that came out just as we were about to wrap up this edition of Myeloma Morning. But the news, which con­cerns Darzalex, is good, so we definitely won't be com­plaining.

Here are today's myeloma-related headlines.

First, Darzalex (daratumuab) is a big step closer to being approved as a new myeloma treat­ment …

Good morning, myeloma world.

We all should have seen this coming.

After days and days of having no major myeloma business news to cover here at Myeloma Morning, what hap­pens? Suddenly, there's not just one new myeloma-related business devel­op­ment to discuss. And not just two. But a full three such news items to review.

So let's start with those devel­op­ments, after which we'll take a quick look at a new research article and what's been going on in the Beacon's forum.

Initial Results Of Darzalex MMY3004 Clinical Trial

Good morning, myeloma world.

We have a slightly different edition of Myeloma Morning cooked up for you today than is usually the case. Although we have one new myeloma research study that we will review – see the discussion further below about Cometriq – we will spend most of today's edition looking in more detail at an issue discussed in this Monday's edition of Myeloma Morning.

In that article, we discussed a recent study by physicians at the Mayo Clinic's Arizona campus. The Mayo Clinic study concerns a con­di­tion known …

Good morning, myeloma world.

It's a glorious spring morning here at Myeloma Morning Headquarters. The sun is coming up in the midst of a clear blue sky, and the cherry tree out front is bursting with blossoms.

In other words, it's a great day to get excited about new multiple myeloma research and other myeloma-related developments.

First, we take a look at a new study by researchers at the John Theurer Cancer Center (JTCC) in New Jersey. They examine whether Pomalyst (pomalidomide, Imnovid) can be used safely in relapsed myeloma patients with …

Good morning, myeloma world.

We hope your week is getting off to a good start. We've got a couple of new research studies to discuss in today's edition of Myeloma Morning, as well as several highlights from the Beacon's discussion forum.

On the research front, we'll start today by mentioning an article by physicians at the Mayo Clinic's Arizona campus. They report on a com­pli­ca­tion, known as thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA), that occurred in two multiple myeloma patients they had treated with Kyprolis (car­filz­o­mib) (abstract).

TMA is a con­di­tion marked …

Good morning, myeloma world.

We hope this Sunday edition of Myeloma Morning finds you rested and ready to do some quick myeloma-related catching up.

We always enjoy reporting on potential new myeloma ther­a­pies, so we thought we'd start today's update with a look at a new study by Korean researchers work­ing at LG Life Sciences. The researchers report results of preclinical (laboratory) tests they have carried out on two drugs, codenamed LC53-0110 and LC53-0151 (full text: html, pdf). Both of these drugs are in the same class of ther­a­pies – …

Good morning, myeloma world.

We hope your weekend has gotten off to a good start. We've been looking over the latest myeloma-related research since the last edition of Myeloma Morning, and it appears we have just a short list of new material to discuss today.

In fact, we will be focusing today on just two new research articles.

The first is from a team of U.S. researchers, most of whom are based at the Uni­versity of Arkansas for Medical Sciences (UAMS). The study looks at a novel way of …
