Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Extracellular uptake of glucose and amino acids (AAs) between pre-malignant clonal plasma cells (cPCs) and polyclonal plasma cells (pPCs)
Assessed by evaluating blood and bone marrow aspirate samples for mean 13Carbon (13C) percentage enrichment of the mass isotopomers of interest of at least 6 (i.e. the difference between a mean 13C percentage enrichment of a particular mass isotopomer is 12% in the MGUS group and 6% in the healthy participant group or vice versa) using a 2-group t-test with a 2-sided significance level of 0.01.
Up to 30 days
Study Arms (2)
Observational Group I
Patients undergo blood collection and bone marrow aspiration as part of their standard care and have their medical records reviewed on study.
Observational Group II
Healthy volunteers undergo blood collection and bone marrow aspiration on study.
