Several authors' proof corrections were not included in the original publication of the December 24, 2009, “How I treat” article cited above. The editors and staff of Blood apologize to the authors and readers for this error.

On page 5436, in the second sentence of the “Abstract,” the parenthetical phrase “(and a potential “operational cure” in some)” should have been deleted. The sentence should have read: “A reasonable goal of MM treatment in younger “transplant eligible” patients is to initiate therapy with a target goal of durable complete remission, and the anticipated consequence of long-term disease control.”

On pages 5440 and 5441, citations 54 through 70 did not correspond with the correct sources on the References list, and the last 2 references (ie, 71 and 72) were not cited in text at all.

Additional minor edits to text were made by the authors. The errors have been corrected and the entire article is republished correctly in the online version, which now differs from the print version as originally published.

Readers are advised to download the corrected and republished online version that replaces the previously posted version.
