Prof Philippe Moreau - University of Nantes, Nantes, France

Dr Philippe Moreau speaks with ecancertv at BSH 2016 about his research into novel therapies to treat myeloma.

Following recent approval in the USA and favourable views in the CHMP, Dr Moreau looks forward to the improved patient outlook possible with courses of elotuzumab or daratumumab.

As combination therapies, elotuzumab and daratumumab have shown significant benefits to patient duration, progression free survival and toxicity profile.

With an eye to the future, he looks forward to novel combinations to maximise patient benefit, up to complete remission.
