NCT ID NCT04108624

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

Summary

This study looks at whether people with multiple myeloma who have no signs of cancer after a stem cell transplant and at least one year of maintenance therapy can safely stop taking their medication. Researchers will use advanced imaging and lab tests to detect even tiny amounts of cancer cells. The goal is to see if stopping treatment is safe and effective for those who are cancer-free by these sensitive tests.
