Overview

We're excited to present the inaugural symposium on renal transplantation in plasma cell disorders. This program unites multidisciplinary experts from Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center and around the world, spanning specialties such as hematology, nephrology, surgery, pathology, immunology, and bioethics. We'll explore critical topics pertaining to the evaluation and management of plasma cell dyscrasia patients being considered for kidney transplantation, including:

  • Updates in MGRS pathology and classification;
  • The latest developments in clone-directed therapy and outcomes;
  • Assessing depth of response;
  • Updates on transplant biology and immunology;
  • Complications of renal transplantation in patients with plasma cell disease; and
  • Fair distribution of a scarce resource and role of living donor transplantation.

Additionally, this symposium will feature a patient and clinician roundtable discussion and a workshop on best practices for distinct disease entities. View the brochure for additional information.

The symposium is intended for physicians, advanced practice providers, registered nurses, fellows, trainees, and other healthcare professionals interested in kidney transplantation for plasma cell disorders. This symposium will be held exclusively in person at Memorial Sloan Kettering's Zuckerman Research Center, with no virtual attendance option available.

Registered attendees will receive access to an online syllabus after the symposium, which will include select PDFs of the faculty presentations (slides) and recorded videos.
