Overview
There is no specific treatment for monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance ; the mainstay of therapy is supportive care, keep an eye and delay the progression to other plasma dyscrasias. Trials using lenalidomide and bisphosphonates are been conducted to determine whether they decrease they progression of the disease both for MGUS and multiple myeloma
Medical Therapy
There is no specific treatment for monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance. The mainstay of therapy is supportive care, keep an eye on and delay the progression to other plasma dyscrasias.[1]
Anti-resorptive therapy
Vitamin D and calcium can be given as anti-resorptive therapy.[2]
Peripheral neuropathy
Corticosteroids may be help with peripheral neuropathy.
Advances
Trials using lenalidomide and bisphosphonates are been run to determine whether they decrease they progression of the disease both for MGUS and multiple myeloma.[3][4][5]
