Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Incidence of morbid progression events attributable to a plasma cell dyscrasia at two years, with morbid events defined as: death, renal injury that does not reverse, fracture, lytic bone lesion, AL Amyloidosis or plasma cell leukemia.

    Frequency and nature of progression events in a prospective cohort of patients with smoldering myeloma undergoing active surveillance with diffusion weighted whole body MRI

    2 years

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • Change in the quality of life as measured by physical function domain on the PROMIS-29 (Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System), from baseline to the end of study at 24 months of follow-up.

    2 years

  • Change in the quality of life as measured by pain interference domain on the PROMIS-29 (Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System), from baseline to the end of study at 24 months of follow-up.

    2 years

  • Change in the quality of life as measured by anxiety domain on the PROMIS-29 (Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System), from baseline to the end of study at 24 months of follow-up.

    2 years

Interventions

Patients with high-risk smoldering myeloma will be prospectively followed and chart review will be performed to determine if progression events happen, and how they happen. All patients on the study are recommended to undergo the following standard of care surveillance protocol: * Complete Blood Count (CBC), Complete Metabolic Panel (CMP), myeloma blood tests (serum kappa/lambda light chains, monoclonal protein evaluation, immunoglobulin levels), to be done monthly for first year, and then every two months for the second year. * WB DW-MRIs every 6 months during the study period. * 24-hour urine Immunofixation/electrophoresis is expected to be completed approximately every 6 months. * Bone marrow biopsy will be performed annually during the study time-period.

Study Population

Smoldering myeloma (SMM)

You may qualify if:

  • Adult subject aged ≥ 18 years.
  • Diagnosis of smoldering myeloma as per the IMWG criteria, specifically:
  • Serum monoclonal protein (IgG or IgA) of 30g/L or greater per 24 hours or urinary monoclonal protein of 500mg or greater per 24 hours and/or
  • Clonal bone marrow plasma cells 10-59% with the absence of myeloma-defining events or amyloidosis
  • High-risk smoldering myeloma defined as two or more out of four of the following criteria:
  • M-spike greater than 2 g/dL
  • An involved/uninvolved free light chain ratio greater than 20
  • Bone marrow plasmacytosis greater than 20%
  • Presence of any of translocation (4;14), deletion 17p, deletion 13q or 1q gain by conventional cytogenetics/fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) studies) and/or
  • An IMWG SMM score of 9 or greater according to the IMWG risk model for smoldering multiple myeloma (SMM)
  • Diagnosis of high-risk SMM made within 365 days of enrollment in the study. Note: If a patient previously had MGUS or low/intermediate SMM- the date at which high-risk SMM was diagnosed would have to be within 365 days of enrollment in the study.

You may not qualify if:

  • Presence of any features that would meet diagnostic criteria for myeloma as per the IMWG Criteria
  • Presence of extramedullary plasmacytomas
  • Creatinine clearance of less than 40ml/min.
  • Presence of AL Amyloidosis (the amount of workup necessary to exclude AL Amyloidosis is per the discretion of the treating investigator, however the investigator must attest that they do not believe AL Amyloidosis to be present at time of enrollment. Serum nt-PROBNP is recommended as part of evaluation in order to ascertain for cardiac amyloidosis).
  • Note: The Hgb cut-offs can vary between institutions (lower cut-off for Hgb University of Utah for men is a Hgb of 14.8, rendering a patient with Hgb of 12.7 as having a CRAB feature). If the Hgb is above 10g/dl but the patient meets the definition of anemia according to the IMWG criteria, by virtue of this being more than 2 g/dl below the limit of normal, the investigator can decide whether to call a patient being considered for screening as having multiple myeloma OR smoldering myeloma and allow enrollment on this study.
  • Given that the values used to define high-risk SMM can change, at time of enrollment, if utilizing at least 2/4 of the 2/20/20+cytogenetics criteria to enroll, participants should meet at least 2/4 of the 2/20/20. If participants had met at least 2/4 previously at some timepoint but do not meet at least 2/4 currently, they cannot be enrolled in the study.
