Brief Summary

Background: \- Multiple myeloma is a type of cancer that affects white blood cells and has a poor long-term survival rate. Two other types of cancer, monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (MGUS) and smoldering myeloma (SMM), may eventually progress and develop into multiple myeloma. Researchers are interested in collecting samples from individuals who have been diagnosed with MGUS and SMM to study possible risk factors for developing multiple myeloma. Objectives: \- To study risk factors that may cause MGUS and SMM to progress to multiple myeloma. Eligibility: \- Individuals at least 18 years of age who have been diagnosed with either MGUS or SMM but do not have multiple myeloma. Design:

  • Participants will be examined by study researchers at the initial visit, at 6 months following enrollment, and every 12 months for a maximum of 5 years.
  • The following tests may be performed: (1) blood and urine tests, (2) bone marrow aspiration and biopsy, (3) imaging studies, and (4) a skeletal survey (a series of skeletal X-rays of the skull, spine, pelvis, ribs, shoulders, upper arm, and thigh bones).
  • Treatment will not be provided as part of this protocol. - Participants will remain on the study for 5 years, or until their MGUS or SMM progresses to multiple myeloma requiring treatment.

Sampling MethodNon-Probability Sample
Study Population

Patients with MGUS or SMM will enroll on the study for the purpose of expert monitoring of their disease (MGUS or SMM), improved risk-stratification, and for the purpose of donating tissue and cellular products for research.@@@

You may qualify if:

  • Diagnosis of MGUS and SMM will be made in accordance with the clinical diagnostic criteria set forth by the International Myeloma Working Group (Table 1).
  • The diagnoses will be confirmed by either serum/urine protein electrophoresis, immunofixation and light-chain assays; or immunohistochemistry analyses of the bone marrow biopsy, or a combination of these tests.
  • Age greater than or equal to 18 years.
  • ECOG performance status of 0-2.
  • The patient must be competent to sign an informed consent form.

You may not qualify if:

  • \- A diagnosis of MM as defined as any patient with detectable M-protein in blood and/or urine, monoclonal plasma cells in the bone marrow, and evidence of end-organ damage (based on the International Myeloma Working Group s diagnostic CRAB criteria:
  • hypercalcemia \[serum calcium at least 1 mg/dL above the upper limit of normal\], renal failure \[creatinine greater than 1.95 mg/dL), anemia (hemoglobin less than 10 g/dL\], or bone lesions \[lytic lesions or osteoporosis with compression fractures\]).
  • \- Patients who have received previous therapy for MM.
