New program aims to catch complications early in multiple myeloma patients after transplant
NCT ID NCT05947136
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tests a program called PASCA that helps doctors detect and manage complications like high blood pressure, kidney failure, chronic pain, and fatigue in multiple myeloma patients after a stem cell transplant. About 204 adults aged 18 to 70 will be randomly assigned to either the PASCA program or standard care. The goal is to see if proactive screening and early referrals improve long-term health outcomes.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- PASCA program (behavioral intervention: screening and referral for complications)
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this program could help doctors catch and treat complications like high blood pressure, kidney problems, or fatigue earlier, improving quality of life for multiple myeloma patients after transplant.
- What could go wrong
- This is a Phase 3 trial, but it tests a care program, not a new drug. The benefit may be small, and results may not apply to all patients or hospitals.
