Abstract

Multiple myeloma (MM) is a deadly cancer of the plasma cells, which disrupts antibody production and overall health. Commonly used treatments for MM include chemotherapy, radiation therapy, and a less used CAR-T therapy. Although these therapies are mostly effective, debilitating and severe side effects can emerge. CAR-NK therapy poses a promising treatment for patients with MM, as the CAR-NK cytokine profile allows for lower side effects compared to CAR-T and still shows strong anti-tumor action. This review evaluates the mechanism and function of CAR-NK receptors and their efficacy against multiple myeloma compared to other therapies.
