   Sammanfattning : Multiple myeloma (MM) is a hematological malignant disease considered essentially incurable despite its sensitivity to cytotoxic chemotherapeutic drugs and radiation. High-dose chemo/radiotherapy with allogeneic- or autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (tx) can induce a disease-free state and may prolong survival and offer an improved quality of life to MM patients.
