Active clinical trials for "Neoplasms, Plasma Cell"

The purpose of this study is to learn how myeloma cells grow and become a cancer, how to distinguish them from normal cells and how to eliminate these cells selectively.

Objectives: The objective of this long-term observational study is to assess progression-free survival and overall survival for a period of five years following the first dose of study treatment (placebo or plerixafor [AMD3100]) in protocol AMD3100-3102. Patients that received at least 1 dose of study treatment (placebo or plerixafor) in the multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled AMD3100-3102 study, which was designed to evaluate plerixafor plus granulocyte colony stimulating factor (G-CSF) versus placebo plus G-CSF to mobilize hematopoietic stem cells for autologous transplantation of Multiple Myeloma (MM) patients are eligible.

This study evaluates whether tumors present in patients with cancer who are planned to get CAR T-cells have low amounts of oxygen (hypoxia). PET scans may be used to check the amounts of oxygen within areas of cancer with a special radioactive tracer called FAZA that specifically looks for areas of low oxygen. This study is being done to help researchers determine how the amount of oxygen within areas of cancer affect how well CAR T-cells kill cancer cells.

Multiple myeloma (MM) is blood disorder characterized by the detection of a monoclonal paraprotein in serum or urine, which is often associated with the presence of clonal plasma cells (PCs) mainly in the bone marrow (BM) .The zinc-finger protein 217 (ZNF217) is an oncogenic protein that plays deleterious functions in various human cancers. The ZNF217 gene is located at the 20q13 chromosomal region, which is frequently amplified in human tumors .

This trial studies financial difficulty in participants with chronic lymphocytic leukemia and multiple myeloma. Assessment of financial difficulty may help to better understand the financial impact of cancer and come up with ways to help participants avoid financial problems during treatment.

To provide early treatment access and evaluate the safety of melflufen and dexamethasone in patients with triple class refractory (TCR) multiple myeloma (MM).

The trial is a feasibility study of a patient-reported outcome (PRO) monitoring for patients with multiple myeloma. Patients will report weekly PROs during treatment at our outpatient unit. The trial will describe the development of treatment-specific item lists to adequately capture relevant symptoms during therapy, evaluate the feasibility of the weekly symptom monitoring, and evaluate the healthcare professional usage of the system in clinical practice.

Bortezomib needs repetitive visits at hospital for injections. Hospital-at-Home (HaH) might be an attractive and suitable alternative in this situation. This study aim to perform a cost-utility analysis of two different strategies in several HaH structures within the Grand Est region in France.

The primary purpose of the study is to quantify participants' demographic parameters, country standard therapies, treatment patterns and outcomes among participants with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), multiple myeloma (MM) and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) in oncology concentration hospitals in Latin America.

Three methods including flow cytometry, next generation sequencing and determination of circulating tumor cells will be performed at different time points in patients with previously undiagnosed multiple myeloma in order to determine the most sensitive method to detect residual disease
