Multiple myeloma long-term survivors exhibit sustained immune alterations decades after first-line therapy

The long-term consequences of cancer and its therapy on the patients' immune system years after cancer-free survival remain poorly understood. Here, we present an in-depth characterization of the bone marrow immune ecosystem of multiple myeloma long-term survivors, from initial diagnosis up to 17 years following a single therapy line and cancer-free survival. Using comparative single-cell analyses combined with molecular, genomic, and functional approaches, we demonstrate that multiple …
