Sponsor

Zhujiang Hospital

Enrollment

200 participants

Start Date

Jan 1, 2023

Study Type

OBSERVATIONAL

Conditions

Summary

To provide a comprehensive MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry method for detecting, characterizing, and quantifying M-protein, and to track M-protein in a very sensitive and specific manner during patient treatment, providing a more precise test for diagnosing disease and monitoring patient response to treatment.


Eligibility

Plain Language Summary

Simplified for easier understanding

This study is evaluating a lab test called MALDI-TOF MS to see if it can detect and monitor multiple myeloma (a type of blood cancer) using blood samples — potentially offering a faster and easier way to track the disease compared to current methods. **You may be eligible if...** - You have been diagnosed with multiple myeloma and have had blood samples collected for standard diagnostic testing - OR you are a healthy adult with no major chronic diseases (for the control group), matched by age and sex to a myeloma patient **You may NOT be eligible if...** - Your sample information is incomplete or cannot be traced - Your blood sample is insufficient for testing - Your sample was not collected or stored according to required guidelines This is primarily a laboratory analysis study using existing blood samples. Talk to your doctor to see if this trial is right for you.
