  • Ages 30 years and older
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: To evaluate the incidence of MGUS in obese subjects 30 years and older planning to undergo weight reduction surgery or who have agreed to enter into a physician monitored weight loss program.

Who may be able to join

  • Male or female patients 30 years or older planning to undergo weight reduction surgery or planning to enter into a physician monitored weight loss program
  • Patients must be obese, defined as a BMI ≥ 30 as calculated by the formula:
  • weight in pounds / height squared x 703 = BMI
  • Subject consent and authorization for the release of health information must be obtained according to local institutional guidelines.
  • To remain in the study for the follow-up phase, the baseline screening test must indicate that a patient has MGUS.

Who cannot join

  • No history of any malignancy except: adequately treated non-melanoma skin cancer, curatively treated in-situ cancer of the cervix, or other solid tumors curatively treated with no evidence of disease for ≥ 5 years.
  • No concurrent or planned participation in randomized trials of weight loss.
  • A patient will be excluded from the follow-up phase if the baseline screening test indicates they do not have MGUS

About this study

Official title: Prospective Observation of the Incidence and Natural History of Monoclonal Gammopathy in Patients Undergoing Weight Reduction Surgery

Screening study to determine incidence of MGUS in this patient population

Read the detailed description

This study is designed to observe the incidence of monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (MGUS) among obese patients planning to have weight reduction surgery or planning to enter into a physician monitored weight loss program and to follow the regression or progression of MGUS following surgery or the initiation of the weight loss program.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Monoclonal Gammopathy of Undetermined Significance, run by Indiana University at 1 site in United States.

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 5 inclusion and 3 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 18 Dec 2024. 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 United States. 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?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Rate of MGUS (time frame: 5 years). 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 18 Dec 2024.
