Abstract excerpt
Multiple myeloma (MM) is an incurable plasma cell malignancy characterized by clonal proliferation of plasma cells and a heterogenous genomic landscape. Copy number and structural changes due to chromosomal instability (CIN) are common features of MM. In this review, we describe how primary and secondary genetic events caused by CIN can contribute to increased instability across the genome of malignant plasma...
