The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of albumin / fibrinogen ratio, blood viscosity and RDW on the prognosis of a newly diagnosed MM patients
This is a non-interventional, national, multi center, prospective multiple myeloma registry in Turkey
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the feasibility of implementing a weekly yoga intervention in patients with multiple myeloma on active therapy. This study aims to analyze the impact of yoga intervention on physical symptoms (e.g. pain, fatigue, sleep), psychological symptoms (e.g. anxiety, depression), and overall health-related quality of life (HRQOL) in multiple myeloma patients on active treatment.
Some blood, bone marrow, and lymphatic (hematologic) cancers such as Hodgkin/Non-Hodgkin lymphomas, chronic lymphocytic leukemia, and multiple myeloma, are over-represented in Veterans due to exposures including Agent Orange and an increased percentage of patients of African American ethnicity. Hematologic transplantation (HCT) is a common treatment for these cancers, but often leads to deconditioning, fatigue, muscle atrophy, and poor quality of life, which are associated with complications such as hospitalization and infection. Despite the significance of these symptoms, there are no approved treatments to prevent/reverse these ...
This is a Phase II study of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HCT) using a myeloablative preparative regimen (of either total body irradiation (TBI); or, fludarabine/busulfan for patients unable to receive further radiation). followed by a post-transplant graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis regimen of post-transplant cyclophosphamide (PTCy), tacrolimus (Tac), and mycophenolate mofetil (MMF).
Myeloma is a bone marrow cancer with over 5000 patients diagnosed in the UK each year. Researchers are committed to improving understanding of myeloma and developing more effective treatments with fewer side effects in order to improve patient outcomes. In order to do this, researchers are collecting samples of blood and bone marrow to test the activity of potential new treatments in the laboratory and to understand what may be the cause of some treatments not working.
The purpose of the project is to set up a national, prospective, longitudinal, multicenter cohort study with associated satellites, a tumor registry platform, to document uniform data on characteristics, molecular diagnostics, treatment and course of disease, to collect patient-reported outcomes and to establish a decentralized biobank for patients with Multiple Myeloma in Germany.
Multiple Myeloma (MM) is often associated with progression, temporary response to therapy and a high relapse rate over time resulting in a poor long-term prognosis. Because MM is classified as an incurable disease, therapeutic resistance is of great interest. However, knowledge about the biological mechanisms underlying resistance associated with MM therapies and about associated predictors remains poor. The MYRACLE cohort, a multicenter prospective cohort of patients with MM, is set up to address this limitation.
Trial Title: FiTNEss (UK-MRA Myeloma XIV) - Frailty-adjusted therapy in Transplant Non-Eligible patients with newly diagnosed Multiple Myeloma Overview: A phase III, multi-centre, randomised controlled trial to compare standard (reactive) and frailty-adjusted (adaptive) induction therapy delivery with the novel triplet ixazomib, lenalidomide and dexamethasone (IRD), and to compare maintenance lenalidomide (R) to lenalidomide plus ixazomib (R+I) in patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma not suitable for a stem cell transplant. All participants receive induction treatment with ixazomib, lenalidomide and...
This trial collects multiple tissue and blood samples, along with medical information, from cancer patients. The "Cancer Moonshot Biobank" is a longitudinal study. This means it collects and stores samples and information over time, throughout the course of a patient's cancer treatment. By looking at samples and information collected from the same people over time, researchers hope to better understand how cancer changes over time and over the course of medical treatments.
