NCT ID NCT05824689
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study aimed to find out how common antibiotic resistance is in multiple myeloma patients receiving a stem cell transplant. Researchers planned to collect data from 124 adults to help design future studies on preventing infections. The study was stopped early, so results are limited.

This study's own entry requirements. Only the study team can say for certain whether you qualify.
Who is studied
Subjects eligible for this study will meet the defined eligibility criteria to undergo autologous transplantation established at the transplant centers as per standard of care (SOC). All adult patients with a diagnosis of multiple myeloma undergoing autologous transplantation after dose-intense melphalan conditioning are candidates for enrollment into this study. These subjects will be approached for enrollment into this study by the transplant attending physician caring for the patient.
