[Multiple myeloma: New criteria for diagnosis and treatment, strong therapeutic hopes]. / Myélome multiple : des critères diagnostiques et pronostiques renouvelés et de forts espoirs thérapeutiques.

Diagnosis criteria have been revised in 2014 and allow the treatment of some asymptomatic patients. Since 2015, a new prognostic score includes tumor plasma cells chromosomal abnormalities. It helps in the distinction between "standard risk" and "high risk" myelomas. Scanner, MRI and Pet Scan are the radiological reference exams to evaluate bone involvement. Alkylating agents, immunomodulators, proteasome inhibitors, and monoclonal antibodies became the most important antitumoral treatments. Risk notion will become more and more important for therapeutic choices. These choices will depend on residual disease evaluation. The next decade will be the immunotherapies development decade.
