Could a cancer drug stop myeloma before it starts?

NCT ID NCT03236428

Summary

This study is testing whether the drug daratumumab can prevent or delay the progression to active multiple myeloma in people with high-risk early-stage conditions (MGUS or smoldering myeloma). The trial involves 42 participants who have these conditions but do not yet have symptoms requiring treatment. Researchers want to see if early treatment with this antibody drug can keep the disease from becoming active cancer.
