NCT00639054

Brief Summary

Observational study investigating prognostic factors in newly diagnosed and relapsed multiple myeloma patients by use of clinical data, biochemical markers (blood samples), cytogenetic markers and gene expression profiling (myeloma cells from fresh bone marrow samples). Enabling future genetic studies by establishing a biobank of bone marrow and peripheral blood samples.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Molecular characteristics (by FISH, SNP, GEP, miRNA)

    0-3 years

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Event free survival (EFS)

    0-10 years

  • Overall survival (OS)

    0-10 years

Study Arms (3)

Newly diagnosed patients

Newly diagnosed high-dose therapy candidates. Participation means bone marrow examination (donating 7.5 ml of fresh bone marrow) and blood samples (24 ml of peripheral blood) for biochemical and genetic analyses regarding multiple myeloma, and granting access to clinical data relating to multiple myeloma.

Procedure: Bone marrow examinationProcedure: Blood samples

Relapse patients

Formerly high-dose treated patients with progressive disease. Participation means bone marrow examination (donating 7.5 ml of fresh bone marrow) and blood samples (24 ml of peripheral blood) for biochemical and genetic analyses regarding multiple myeloma, and granting access to clinical data relating to multiple myeloma.

Procedure: Bone marrow examinationProcedure: Blood samples

Healthy controls

Healthy blood and bone marrow donors. Participation means bone marrow examination (donating 7.5 ml of fresh bone marrow) for genetic analyses serving to compare normal bone marrow with bone marrow from multiple myeloma patients.

Procedure: Bone marrow examination

Interventions

7.5 ml of iliac crest bone marrow drawn in addition to diagnostic samples.

Healthy controlsNewly diagnosed patientsRelapse patients
Blood samplesPROCEDURE

24 ml of cubital vein blood drawn in addition to diagnostic samples.

Sexall
Healthy VolunteersYes
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)
Sampling MethodNon-Probability Sample
Study Population

Patients diagnosed and/or treated at departments of hematology. Healthy controls.

You may qualify if:

  • patients newly diagnosed with multiple myeloma and at the same time eligible for high dose chemotherapy and autologous stem cell transplantation
  • patients with multiple myeloma experiencing relapse after high dose chemotherapy and autologous stem cell transplantation

You may not qualify if:

  • for newly diagnosed patients: age or comorbidity preventing high dose chemotherapy and autologous stem cell transplantation,
  • for all patients: age below 18, physical or psychological incapability to give an informed consent.
