Myeloma Paper of the Day, September 1st, suggested by Robert Orlowski

Robert Orlowski shared on X:

“Myeloma Paper of the Day: IL-10 is over-expressed in myeloma BM models and mediates M2-like polarization of TAMs, while inhibition of the IL-10/IL-10R/STAT3 axis prevents M2 polarization and re-sensitizes myeloma to therapy in vitro and in vivo.”

IL-10R inhibition reprograms tumor-associated macrophages and reverses drug resistance in multiple myeloma

Robert Orlowski, M.D., Ph.D., holds multiple positions at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center, including Chairman, Ad Interim Director of Myeloma, and Professor of Medicine in the Departments of Lymphoma/Myeloma and Experimental Therapeutics within the Division of Cancer Medicine. Additionally, he chairs the SWOG Barlogie/Salmon Myeloma Committee, which is part of the National Clinical Trials Network, dedicated to advancing new therapies and understanding the biology of myeloma.

Dr. Orlowski’s expertise lies in both clinical practice and scientific research, with a particular focus on translating laboratory discoveries into effective treatments for patients. He investigates drug resistance mechanisms in myeloma and seeks to identify predictive biomarkers for treatment response. Notably, his past contributions include leadership roles in developing proteasome inhibitors like bortezomib and carfilzomib, as well as monoclonal antibodies such as daratumumab and elotuzumab.
