He said while it's been a topic of research for many years, recently it's become more important than ever in treating cancer. "Minimal residual disease is a topic that is on everybody's lips these days. You cannot attend one single meeting without hearing about the minimal residual disease [MRD] testing in myeloma and other diseases, as well," he said.
