About this study

Official title: Understanding Monoclonal Gammopathy of Unknown Significance (MGUS): A Research Study to Investigate the Functional Consequences of Paraprotein Production in MGUS

This is a study to investigate the functional consequences of paraprotein production in MGUS (Monoclonal Gammopathy of Unknown Significance).

Read the detailed description

Monoclonal gammopathy of unknown significance (MGUS) is a common haematological condition. It is characterised by proliferation of a B lymphocyte clone and it's associated antibody (paraprotein). In most cases there are no clinical symptoms, however, in a small number of individuals there may be an interaction of the paraprotein with a molecule expressed by the body (self antigen). This can have effects on the normal function of this molecule and/or cause disease.

The study aims to investigate the functional consequences of paraprotein production in MGUS.

Being tested
Blood sample taken, Answering a lifestyle questionnaire, Follow-up phone call from researcher (two years after first visit)

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Clinical assays (i.e. Haematology, biochemistry, immunology, endocrinology): to capture the number of assay phenotypes that are statistically different from normal ranges.

    For clinical assays with defined normal ranges, we will capture those results that are significantly outside of normal range. For those with no generally accepted normal ranges, the results will be compared against results from the other individuals.

    Measured: Up to 4 years from study start

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. The number of conversions to multiple myeloma

    Measured: 2 years after the first visit

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Monoclonal Gammopathy of Unknown Significance, run by RxCelerate Ltd at 9 sites in United Kingdom.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 2 Sep 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 9 sites in United Kingdom. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Clinical assays (i.e. Haematology, biochemistry, immunology, endocrinology): to capture the number of assay phenotypes that are statistically different from normal ranges. (time frame: Up to 4 years from study start). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 2 Sep 2020.
