Molecular mechanism of action of immune-modulatory drugs thalidomide, lenalidomide and pomalidomide in multiple myeloma

TL;DR: Cereblon downstream signaling will help to delineate the underlying mechanisms for IMiD action and eventually lead to development of new drugs with more specific anti-myeloma activities, and may also provide a biomarker to predict IMid response and resistance.
Journal ArticleDOI

Extramedullary myeloma whole genome sequencing reveals novel mutations in Cereblon, proteasome subunit G2 and the glucocorticoid receptor in multi drug resistant disease

TL;DR: An acquired truncating mutation of Cereblon (CRBN) is reported as well as point mutations in proteasome subunit G2 and the glucocorticoid receptor as an explanation for drug resistance for a 37-year-old IgG-kappa MM patient presenting with progressive, multi-drug refractory EMD.
