Monoclonal gammopathy of uncertain significance

This study tests whether a year-long lifestyle program (diet, exercise, and other healthy habits) can improve key blood markers in people with MGUS or smoldering myeloma—two early, often symptom-free conditions that can lead to multiple myeloma. About 67 adults will participate, …

This pilot study will test whether a 12-week Korean-style Mediterranean diet, combined with daily step tracking, is feasible for people with MGUS or smoldering myeloma. Twenty adults will receive dietary counseling and a wearable device to monitor activity. Researchers will measu…

This study tests a new blood test that looks for DNA fragments in the blood (called cfDNA) to detect multiple myeloma and its early forms (MGUS and smoldering myeloma) in people over 40. The test uses machine learning to tell the difference between healthy individuals and those w…

This study explores whether a PET/MR scan using a radioactive tracer called 18F-Florbetaben can detect amyloid deposits—abnormal protein clumps that can damage organs—in people with certain blood disorders. Participants receive a single injection of the tracer followed by a whole…

This study will follow 5,000 adults with immune system problems to see if certain blood cell mutations (called clonal hematopoiesis) are linked to their condition. Researchers will track new cases of immune-related diseases over time. No treatments or drugs are tested—this is pur…
