Learning objective: After reading this article, learners will be able to cite new clinical developments in Waldenstrom’s macroglobulinemia.


During the 12th International Workshop on Waldenstrom's Macroglobulinemia (IWWM-12), the Lymphoma Hub was pleased to speak to Shirley D’Sa, University College London, London, UK. We asked about management of IgM demyelinating neuropathy in patients with Waldenstrom's macroglobulinemia (WM).

IWWM-12: Management of IgM demyelinating neuropathy in WM

In this interview, D’Sa discusses management of anti-myelin associated glycoprotein (MAG) neuropathy, a form of inflammatory neuropathy that impacts patients with IgM paraproteins. She highlights the efficacy of treatments, particularly the use of rituximab, while also acknowledging the complexities involved in determining the optimal timing for treatment and the metrics for assessing effectiveness. D’Sa emphasizes the importance of developing clinical metrics to effectively measure neuropathy and discusses the significance of a consensus panel aimed at enhancing treatment guidance for healthcare practitioners.
