Abstract

Despite significant progress and improving outcomes in the management of plasma cell disorders, AL amyloidosis remains diagnostically and therapeutically challenging for clinicians across practice settings. There is, however, a reason for optimism with the advent of new combination therapy approaches and novel targets offering the promise of improvement in end organ function, survival, and quality of life. This review offers a clinically applicable overview of an approach to diagnosis, risk stratification, and clinical management of AL amyloidosis in an era of rapid therapeutic innovation.
