Multiple Myeloma
- 28,700 & 19,920 new diagnoses p.a. in the EU1 & USA2,
respectively
- ≈4,000 new patients p.a & ≈3,000 deaths p.a. in the UK
- Recent improvement in survival as a result of new treatments
but access to optimum treatment and managing expectations are big challenges
- 37% are diagnosed through emergency routes rather than
referral by GPs. This compares to an average 23% across all cancer types (National Cancer Intelligence Network 2012)
- Patients diagnosed through emergency routes have significantly
poorer one-year survival outcomes compared to those diagnosed by GP referral (51% vs. 82%) (National Cancer Intelligence Network 2012)

Late/delayed(Diagnosis (
Solu4ons? '
Late diagnosis: why?
- Rarity?
– GPs may only see 2 myeloma patients in their career – Lack of GP awareness of myeloma
- Vague presenting symptoms typical of
demographic
– e.g. lower back pain (osteoporosis), infection and fatigue
- Late presentation by patients
- Low public profile
- No screening?
Myeloma UK work on improving early diagnosis
- A GP education and awareness
campaign aimed at reducing the likelihood of delays in diagnosis
- Launched by Myeloma UK in
mid-2010
- It engages myeloma patients, their networks and the public in helping
GPs recognise the signs and symptoms of myeloma
- It involves campaigners to TAKE 2 or more Myeloma Diagnosis
Pathways to their GPs and encouraging others to do the same
The Myeloma Diagnosis Pathway
- The Myeloma Diagnosis Pathway (MDP) is a simple
two-sided algorithmic reference tool for GPs outlining signs, symptoms and tests to take for myeloma
- It was developed by Myeloma UK with the help of its
medical advisory committee and GP reviewers
TAKE 2 Campaign: the impact
- Reached over 9,000 GPs to-date
- Over 150 MPs supported the campaign
- Is now being replicated in countries around the world
including Australia, The Netherlands, Belgium, USA and Portugal, Canada and China
- Excellent feedback from GPs via surveys and
unsolicited comments
- Support from Department of Health
- Long-term impact will be assessed against baseline
research
NAEDI – National Awareness and Early
Diagnosis Initiative
- Early diagnosis, estimated 10,000 deaths
per annum could be saved
- Prevention – lifestyle
- Screening – bowel, breast
- HPV vaccination testing
- Original focus lung, breast, colorectal,
prostate and skin
- Rarer cancers now a priority – but
challenging

Summary
- Improvement in survival with current treatment
strategies evident
- A delayed diagnosis is a significant problem
resulting in undue morbidity and health-related QoL issues.
- Modest investments of time and money in early
diagnosis has the potential to improve survival and quality of life
- Early diagnosis may offer new opportunities for
