ABSTRACT
In the intricate landscape of multiple myeloma, a hematologic malignancy of plasma cells, bone disease presents a pivotal and often debilitating complication. The emergence of Chimeric Antigen Receptor T-cell (CAR-T) therapy has marked a pivotal shift in the therapeutic landscape, offering novel avenues for the management of MM, particularly for those with relapsed or refractory disease. This innovative treatment modality not only targets malignant cells with precision but also influences the bone microenvironment, presenting both challenges and opportunities in patient care. In this comprehensive review, we aim to examine the multifaceted aspects of bone disease in patients with multiple myeloma and concurrent CAR-T therapy, highlighting its clinical ramifications and the latest advancements in diagnostic modalities and therapeutic interventions. The article aims to synthesize current understanding of the interplay between myeloma cells, CAR-T cells, and the bone microenvironment in the context of current treatment strategies in this challenging and unique patient population.
