Multiple myeloma(MM),a malignancy of clonalplasma cells,is characterized by proliferation andaccumulation of abnormal plasmacytes in bone marrow,monoclonal immunoglobulin or its fragment secretions(M-protein)in serum or urine and concomitant extensiveosteolytic lesions and/or osteoporosis,anemia,infectionor renal dysfunction.The incidence rate of MM hasgradually increased in recent years.Traditionalchemotherapy results in median survival duration of nomore than three years,a 25% five-year survival rate and aten-year survival rate of less than 5%.It remains anincurable disease and particularly threatens the health ofmiddle-aged and old-aged people.With the recent studieson biologic characteristics,intracellular signaltransduction pathways and bone marrow micro-environment and their interactions,there emerged newdrugs that have resulted in progress in the treatment ofMM,which are sununarized as follows.
