Follow-up of Patients With Multiple Myeloma in the West-Occitanie Region "Living With a Myeloma in West-Occitanie"

Study Purpose

Actually very few real life data are available for patients with multiple myeloma (MM), whereas they're playing a more and more important role in health care decisions. Treatments choice for medical care of patient with MM depends of their age, their general status, their eligibility to high dose treatment (autograft), and also based on cytogenetic risk (standard/high risk). Therapeutic strategies are multiple and based on drugs associations including proteasome inhibitors, immuno-modulators and monoclonal antibodies. Therapeutic medical care objective is to improve quality and response duration through more effective induction schemas, systematic consolidation for patients who have undergone high dose therapy and/or maintenance treatment, ensuring patients safety and well-being in the health care pathway. Quality of life evaluation has to take in consideration disease outcome and secondary effects impact from treatments prescribed for MM. With clinical trials, new therapeutic strategies are proposed with innovative drugs but participants are selected and do not represent all patients with MM. Therefore, there is a large gap between clinical trials and real life data. That's why the CHU Toulouse intends to set up a prospective cohort to evaluate the health care pathway of patients with MM in West-Occitanie region and studies impact of treatments prescribed on the disease and on the patients' quality of life. With this research, standard of care practices for patients with MM will be followed, prognostic scores and clinical trials results will be validated in real life, impact of outpatient support procedure will be assessed (AMA procedure) and sociodemographic/quality of life data will be available for research teams.

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

Healthy volunteers are participants who do not have a disease or condition, or related conditions or symptoms

No
Study Type

An interventional clinical study is where participants are assigned to receive one or more interventions (or no intervention) so that researchers can evaluate the effects of the interventions on biomedical or health-related outcomes.


An observational clinical study is where participants identified as belonging to study groups are assessed for biomedical or health outcomes.


Searching Both is inclusive of interventional and observational studies.

Observational
Eligible Ages 18 Years and Over

Trial Details

Trial ID:

This trial id was obtained from ClinicalTrials.gov, a service of the U.S. National Institutes of Health, providing information on publicly and privately supported clinical studies of human participants with locations in all 50 States and in 196 countries.

NCT04888039
Phase

Phase 1: Studies that emphasize safety and how the drug is metabolized and excreted in humans.

Phase 2: Studies that gather preliminary data on effectiveness (whether the drug works in people who have a certain disease or condition) and additional safety data.

Phase 3: Studies that gather more information about safety and effectiveness by studying different populations and different dosages and by using the drug in combination with other drugs.

Phase 4: Studies occurring after FDA has approved a drug for marketing, efficacy, or optimal use.

Additional Details

Primary objective : Describe health care pathways of patients with MM living in West Occitanie according to socio-demographic patients' caracteristics, their comorbidities and their initial disease severity. These pathways will be described until the patients' death if the death occurs before the end of their follow-up in this study. Secondary objectives :

  • - The best response at each line of therapy.
  • - The progression free survival and overall survival.
  • - Quality of life of patients with MM along their health care pathway.
  • - Second primary malignancy and neuropathy grade 3 or more occurrence during patients'care.
  • - Socio-demographic, clinic and biology factors identification to predict response to treatments, progression free survival, overall survival and quality of life.
Study size calculation : With the hypothesis of 80% of patients informed about the study will agree to participate and will accept to have their health care data collected, and with 500 to 550 patients' medical files presented each year for MM care to West Occitanie multidisciplinary committee meeting (approximately 400 different patients), a 5-years recruitment period will lead to 1600 patients enrollment. This size will be able to generate enough precisions for descriptive analyses. Indeed, as example, with a percentage of 50%, conservative situation to estimate percentages, expected precision should be more or less 2.5% according to Clopper-Pearson exact method. Precision of more or less 5% should be also obtained for sub-groups of 400 persons.
