Blood cancer protein may predict patient outcomes

NCT ID NCT04546945

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study is looking at a protein called CD56 in people with blood cancers like multiple myeloma and leukemia. Researchers want to see how common CD56 is and whether it is linked to how well patients do. The study will include 38 newly diagnosed patients and use a lab test called flow cytometry to measure CD56.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

What this could lead to
If successful, this could help doctors use CD56 levels to better predict how blood cancers will progress.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early observational study, not a treatment trial. It may not find a clear link between CD56 and patient outcomes.
