Bruce Springsteen said his wife, singer-songwriter Patti Scialfa, is in remission after living with multiple myeloma for more than eight years. He disclosed the update in a pre-recorded message for the Pan-Mass Challenge, a cycling event supporting cancer research. Scialfa was diagnosed in 2018, a fact revealed in the 2024 documentary Road Diary: Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band. Multiple myeloma affects plasma cells in the bone marrow and can harm the blood, bones, kidneys and immune system. Remission means signs of cancer have reduced or disappeared, but it is not the same as a cure. Treatment can include chemotherapy, targeted therapy, immunotherapy and stem cell transplantation, followed by regular monitoring.
