Scientists launch tissue bank to unlock secrets of rare blood cancers
NCT ID NCT01177527
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study collects bone marrow and blood samples, along with medical history, from people with multiple myeloma, Waldenstrom macroglobulinemia, and related disorders. The samples are stored in a tissue bank for future research to understand what causes these cancers, how they progress, and how to improve treatments. Participants provide samples and data but do not receive any experimental therapy.
