In transplant-eligible patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma (MM), induction therapy followed by peripheral blood stem cell (PBSC) collection with granulocyte-colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF), high-dose chemotherapy (HDCT) with melphalan and autologous blood stem cell transplantation (ABSCT) is a standard-of-care [1–3]. This evidence concerns the gene CSF3 and Miyoshi myopathy.
