Abstract:
Multiple myeloma (MM) is a malignant disease caused by the abnormal clonal proliferation of plasma cells, accounting for 10% of all hematologic cancers. In recent years, with the development and application of targeted drugs, a significant progress has been observed in the treatment methods of MM, but patients still face the challenges of relapse and drug resistance. Moreover, G protein-coupled receptor class C Group 5 member D (GPRC5D) is highly expressed in MM cells independently of B cell maturation antigen (BCMA) and is a highly promising target following BCMA. Aside from emphasizing the therapeutic efficacy and safety of targeting GPRC5D for the treatment of MM, this study also provides a prospective view on the mechanisms of drug resistance and relapse associated with GPRC5D-targeted therapies, as well as the timing of sequential or combined treatment strategies involving the dual targeting of both GPRC5D and BCMA.
