First seen Nov 19, 2025 · Last updated May 07, 2026 · Updated 26 times

Summary

This study looked at whether a substance in the blood called M-CSF can help doctors find bone damage caused by multiple myeloma. Researchers compared M-CSF levels in 111 people: those with multiple myeloma, those with a pre-cancer condition called MGUS, and healthy volunteers. The goal was to see if M-CSF could be a useful marker for bone lesions, but no treatment was tested.
