Abstract

The nuclear export protein Exportin 1 (XPO1) is overexpressed in a wide variety of cancers including multiple myeloma. Selinexor (SEL) is a novel, first-in-class selective inhibitor of nuclear export (SINE), which blocks XPO1, forcing the nuclear retention and activation of tumor suppressor proteins. SEL in combination with dexamethasone (DEX) has demonstrated an overall response rate (ORR) of 26.2% in patients (pts) with triple class refractory MM. Lenalidomide (LEN) in combination with DEX is approved for the treatment of RRMM with an overall response rate (ORR) of 60-76%.
