Abstract
Smoldering multiple myeloma (SMM) is now considered a heterogeneous set of diseases with different tendencies to progress to active myeloma. Several trials aimed at curing multiple myeloma (MM) in the smoldering stage through intensive treatment have reported effective control of active myeloma.[1] At the same time, Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell immunotherapy is currently being intensively tested for treating relapsed and refractory myeloma.[2] Here, we report a patient with smoldering myeloma who elected to be treated with CAR T-cell therapy and has now achieved minimal residual disease (MRD) negativity.
