Primary conditionMultiple MyelomaRegistry: ParaproteinemiasReclassifiedWhy we changed it
Registry
Paraproteinemias — the first condition term the registry derived for this study.
ClinicalTrials.gg
Multiple Myeloma
Why
  1. The study's title name Multiple Myeloma, a narrower term within Paraproteinemias.
Confidence
High: the new condition is named in the study's own title. Of 46 hand-checked studies reclassified this way, 72% were exactly right and 89% in the right disease family; the registry's first term was right for 4% (measured 2026-10-21). How we classify →

Terms in these criteria, in plain language(1)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

Informed consent

Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.

You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Create a repository

    The primary objective of this study is to provide a mechanism to store comprehensive clinical, genomic, demographic, social, environmental and quality of life data from subjects with plasma cell dyscrasias

    Time frame: 5 years

Secondary outcomes

  1. Data collection

    To collect data related to clonal evolution, tumor microenvironment, clinical outcomes, adverse events, environmental factors and quality of life that will provide the foundation to create hypotheses for future confirmatory studies.
