Multiple myeloma is a cancer where plasma cells rapidly divide out of control. These cancerous cells generally express the B-cell maturation antigen, while it is rarely expressed on non-cancerous cells. Multiple myeloma is typically treated with an immunomodulatory agent like lenalidomide, a proteasome inhibitor like bortezomib, or an anti-CD38 monoclonal...
