About this study

Study aiming at testing the positive predictive value of the Hevylite blood test in detecting minimal residual disease in myeloma compared to an invasive method requiring bone marrow sample by multi-parametric flow cytometry

Read the detailed description

Multiple Myeloma is a pathology for which treatments are constantly progressing. These treatments allow more and more patients to reach deeper and deeper responses. Currently, it is possible to detect very low levels of disease : this is called the evaluation of minimal residual disease. Its prognostic value is strong.

Two techniques currently prevail in the evaluation of minimal residual disease: high throughput sequencing (NGS) and multi-parameter flow cytometry. They are included in evaluation criteria defined by the International Myeloma Working Group (IMWG). These techniques have the advantage of being very sensitive, reaching 10-5 (cytometry: 50 events among 5 000 000 cells analysed) to 10-6 (NGS). Nevertheless, they are invasive for the patient (medullary specimen), require technical expertise and are not necessarily available in all hospitals.

The development of blood tests would cope with this constraints.

The Hevylite® assay is a simple, sensitive, automated and inexpensive immunologic technique that allows the accurate quantification of total IgG, Total IgG, Total IgA, Total IgA L, Total IgM, and Total IgM in the blood. Given its characteristics, the Hevylite assay could play a role in the definition of MRD and allow evaluation of residual disease in myeloma.

This study aims to evaluate the positive predictive value of the Hevylite test in the evaluation of residual disease in myeloma in comparison with multiparametric flow cytometry on the bone marrow.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Myeloma, run by University Hospital, Montpellier at 1 site in France.

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 2 inclusion and 1 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 19 Nov 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in France. 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?

Contact Laure Vincent, MD (467 33 24 18 ext. 33, l-vincent@chu-montpellier.fr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

positive predictive value of the Hevylite test (time frame: 1 day). 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 19 Nov 2019.
