abstract = {Multiple myeloma (MM) is a hematological malignancy caused
by the clonal expansion of plasma cells. The incidence of MM
worldwide is increasing with greater than 140,000 people
being diagnosed with MM per year. While 5-year survival
following a diagnosis of MM has improved from $28\%$ in 1975
to $56\%$ in 2012 the disease remains essentially incurable.
In this review we summarize our current understanding of MM
including its epidemiology, genetics and biology. We will
also provide an overview of MM management that have led to
improvements in survival, including recent changes to
diagnosis and therapies. Areas of unmet need include the
management of patients with high-risk MM, those with a
reduced performance status and those refractory to standard
therapies. Ongoing research into the biology and early
detection of MM as well as the development of novel
therapies such as immunotherapies have the potential to
influence MM practice in the future. This article is
