Study summary

A prospective patients' registry collecting all new cases of AL amyloidosis evaluated at referral Centers from across Europe and a sample sharing network will be created to study mechanisms of the disease through the use of advanced molecular technologies and big data analysis tools.

Read the detailed description

In the frame of the EUREKA Consortium, a patients' registry collecting all new cases of AL amyloidosis evaluated at referral Centers across Europe or at their satellite sites will be created, in association with a cross-border biorepository and sample sharing network for the study of both disease-causing light chains and plasma cells with advanced molecular technologies. A dedicated site will support the Consortium with big data analysis and artificial intelligence applied to health. The aims are: 1) Defining the impact of advanced molecular technologies to promote early diagnosis and guide therapeutic choices; 2) describing the natural history of the disease in a representative cohort of AL patients in the contemporary era of effective anti-plasma cell therapies; 3) investigating and refining novel advanced technologies to detect with high sensitivity residual disease-causing plasma cells/light chains in patients achieving a complete hematologic response to therapy (minimal residual disease, MRD).

Study population

400 patients with AL amyloidosis will be enrolled at diagnosis and evaluated at any of the participating clinical centers.

Go through the criteria one by one — yes, no or not sure — and take the list to your doctor or the study team. Kept in this browser only.

Inclusion criteria

  • diagnosis of systemic AL amyloidosis;
  • treatment-naïve;
  • age ≥18 years;
  • ability to understand and willingness to sign an ;
  • planned follow-up at participating center.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

  • non-AL amyloidosis;
  • previous treatment for AL amyloidosis.
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 these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Apr 16, 2026, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
