About Multiple Myeloma

Multiple myeloma is a cancer of the bone marrow in which white blood cells called plasma cells, normally responsible for the production of antibodies (proteins that fight infection and disease), are overproduced. The proliferation of these abnormal plasma cells, known as myeloma cells, causes decreased production of normal red and white blood cells, and of normal disease-fighting antibodies, as well as the growth of tumors that spread to multiple sites - hence the term multiple myeloma. The decreased white blood cell production damages the immune system while the myeloma tumors cause bone destruction that manifests as pain and fractures.

The American Cancer Society estimates there will be about 19,900 new cases of multiple myeloma in the United States in 2007. Of these, about 10,960 will be in men and about 8,940 in women. About 10,970 Americans are expected to die of multiple myeloma in 2007.

Multiple myeloma is highly radiosensitive and is locally radiocurable. Novel systemic radionuclide-based therapies may therefore provide a significant advance in clinical therapy of myeloma.
