First COVID-19 Patient with Multiple Myeloma (MM) Successfully Treated with Tocilizumab in Wuhan, China

MM is a cancer of plasma cells, which are a type of white blood cells that generate antibodies to help the body fight infections. Several studies have shown that tocilizumab, a drug that inhibits Interleukin-6 (IL-6), is able to effectively calm the strong inflammatory response in COVID-19 patients.
