Abstract

Findings within the current issue indicate that treatment with IPH2101 when used as a monotherapy in smoldering multiple myeloma, meant to enhance natural killer (NK) cell function through inhibitory KIR blockade, results in a surprising reduction of NK-cell function mediated through monocyte trogocytosis. The significance of these findings is discussed.
