If a patient has had no detectable myeloma for a year or more, stop maintenance and watch, restarting only if disease reappears.
For a patient with multiple myeloma whose disease has been undetectable by MRD testing for a year or more, this idea proposes stopping maintenance and watching, restarting only if disease reappears. The rationale is that sustained MRD negativity at the most sensitive threshold predicts a very low rate of relapse, that MRD re-emergence precedes clinical relapse by months, and that indefinite lenalidomide adds toxicity, second cancers and cost. The hypothesis is that stopping after twelve months of sustained MRD negativity gives non-inferior progression-free survival with better quality of life. PERSEUS, MASTER, DRAMMATIC (SWOG S1803) and GEM2014MAIN test stopping, so it is being tested at scale; it addresses the bottlenecks of dormant cells and minimal residual disease and of trial design.
