About EMN

Multiple Myeloma

Multiple myeloma is a rare and highly heterogeneous hematologic
malignancy, and the clinical research certainly plays a fundamental role in
the management of patients with this disease.

 

To deal with such a complex scenario, in 2005, a group of European
hematologists pulled together to increase their understanding of multiple
myeloma and to produce effective research projects and clinical trials.
These efforts resulted in the creation of the European Myeloma Network
(EMN), a non profit organization.

Hear from the EMN President

Diversity and inclusion

Inclusion is a major value for the EMN, particularly when it comes to clinical trials. The myeloma community is in fact highly heterogeneous and the EMN strongly believes that the same high-quality treatments should be offered to any patients, regardless of their gender, race, ethnicity, sexualorientation, disability, religion, age, cultural backgrounds, life experiences, thoughts, and ideas. We are extremely grateful for the fundamental role our patients play in the EMN clinical studies, and the contribution of each one of them is equally recognized and appreciated.
