Monoclonal gammopathy

Researchers are testing whether the drug daratumumab can treat kidney diseases caused by monoclonal gammopathy of renal significance (MGRS), a group of conditions where abnormal antibody proteins damage the kidneys. The trial enrolls 30 adults with biopsy-confirmed MGRS. Particip…

This early-stage trial tests a new gene therapy called KLN-1010 for people with multiple myeloma that has come back or stopped responding to treatment. Instead of removing cells and engineering them in a lab, this therapy works inside the body to create special immune cells that …

This early-phase trial is testing a new drug called budoprutug (TNT119) in 24 adults with immune thrombocytopenia (ITP), a condition where the immune system destroys platelets, raising bleeding risk. Participants receive two IV doses and are monitored for safety, how the drug mov…

This study collects bone marrow and blood samples from up to 600 people with mastocytosis, a condition where too many mast cells cause symptoms like itching and bone pain. Researchers will study what makes these cells grow and survive. The goal is to learn more about the disease,…

This study looks at whether firefighters' exposure to hazardous chemicals leads to pre-cancerous changes in their blood. Researchers will collect blood samples from 300 firefighters aged 40-49 with at least 5 years on the job. The goal is to find early markers that might predict …

This study is building a huge registry of information and biological samples from adults with or at risk for many types of cancer, as well as healthy volunteers. Researchers will use this resource to study what causes cancer and how to better prevent, detect, and treat it. The re…

This observational study is collecting genetic and clinical information from 520 people with multiple myeloma to better understand why the disease progresses or comes back. Researchers will analyze tumor DNA and RNA to find patterns linked to treatment response. The goal is to cr…

This study is creating a database of up to 5,000 people in Ohio with plasma cell disorders like multiple myeloma and amyloidosis. Researchers will track treatments, outcomes, and quality of life, while also offering patients access to expert consultations and information about su…

This study investigates how a sugar modification called N-glycosylation affects AL amyloidosis, a rare disease where abnormal proteins build up in organs. Researchers will analyze blood and bone marrow samples from 100 adults with related conditions to better understand the disea…

This study aims to find out how many people with an enlarged spleen or certain blood disorders (like multiple myeloma) also have Gaucher disease or acid sphingomyelinase deficiency (ASMD). Researchers will use a simple blood spot test to check for these rare conditions. The goal …

This study is creating a large collection of blood samples, tissue, and health information from 2,500 people with plasma cell disorders like multiple myeloma. Researchers will use this repository to better understand how the disease develops and changes over time. No new treatmen…
