Presented By:
Ola Landgren, M.D., Ph.D. Professor of Medicine & Chief of Multiple Service at Memorial SloanKettering in New York City

Speaker Biography:
Dr. Landgren is Professor of Medicine and Chief Attending Physician of the Myeloma Service at Memorial SloanKettering Cancer Center (MSKCC) in New York, NY. Dr. Landgren is one of the world leaders in the field of early treatment strategies and molecular and cellbased monitoring of minimal residual disease (MRD) detection in multiple myeloma and its precursor states. He leads a translational research program at MSKCC designed to discover new treatment paradigms integrating modern therapy and novel MRD assays. Dr. Landgren has designed and led the definitive study showing that all multiple myeloma patients are preceded by a precursor stage. As part of his ongoing research program, he is studying molecular mechanisms underlying the trajectory from precursor to fullblown multiple myeloma with the goal to develop of treatment strategies aiming to delay, prevent, and ultimately define a cure for multiple myeloma.
Dr. Landgren has published over 250 peerreviewed publications and he is a frequently invited speaker at national and international hematology conferences. He serves on several research committees and editorial boards for scientific journals.

Webinar:
Common symptoms and presentations of Multiple Myeloma to primary care physicians

Abstract:
Boardcertified hematologistoncologist Ola Landgren, MD, PhD, will review how vague symptoms (fatigue, bone pain, back pain) are linked to the possibility of underlying Multiple Myeloma and what guidelinerecommended tests should be used for diagnosis. Primary care physicians see 50% of Myeloma patients with early symptoms, and early identification and diagnosis are key to starting earlier treatment for Multiple Myeloma patients and preventing secondary complications.
