NCT ID NCT00898235
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study is creating a large collection of blood, urine, and tissue samples from up to 10,000 people with amyloid diseases (like multiple myeloma). The goal is to store these samples and health data for future research to better understand these conditions. Participants do not receive any treatment—they simply provide samples and information during their regular care at Boston Medical Center.
