Multiple Myeloma and Amyloidosis Program

Karmanos’ Multiple Myeloma and Amyloidosis Specialists

Our Multiple Myeloma and Amyloidosis Multidisciplinary Team sees between 230 and 250 new multiple myeloma patients and between 30 and 50 new amyloidosis patients each year. 

The team spans many disciplines, including hematologists, medical oncologists, specialized nurse practitioners, bone marrow transplant specialists, radiologists, pathologists, cardiologists, nephrologists, radiation oncologists, orthopedic surgeons, dietitians and social workers.  The team is entirely focused on treating multiple myeloma and amyloidosis and shares its collective expertise to create a customized treatment plan for each patient.

Our team of researchers not only has vast clinical expertise, but also years of clinical research experience. We have one of the largest myeloma bone marrow transplant programs in the country and are one of the few centers in the region offering investigational cellular therapies such as CAR-T cells to patients with Multiple Myeloma. 

In fact, Karmanos also has more active clinical trials for patients with multiple myeloma and amyloidosis than any other center in the state of Michigan. The team collaborates with basic scientists to better understand multiple myeloma and amyloidosis and to bring these new therapies to the clinic.
