About this study

Official title: The China Monoclonal Gammopathy Screening Project in First-degree Relatives of Patients With Multiple Myeloma (CHAPERONE) --A Multicenter Observational Study

The goal of the China Monoclonal Gammopathy Screening Project in First-degree Relatives of Patients With Multiple Myeloma (CHAPERONE) study is to assess the clinical significance of screening for monoclonal gammopathy (M-protein) in first-degree relatives of patients with multiple myeloma in China population, and establish a prospective cohort of individuals with monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (MGUS), a precursor conditions to multiple myeloma. We will study these patients as a means to identify risk factors for progression to symptomatic multiple myeloma.

Read the detailed description

The CHAPERONE study aims to assess the clinical significance of screening for monoclonal gammopathy in first-degree relatives of patients with multiple myeloma in China.

The main objectives it aims to answer are:

  • Main research objectives: To study the prevalence of MGUS, the time of disease progression, and its influencing factors in first-degree relatives of multiple myeloma patients in China.
  • Secondary study objective: To explore the clinical/genomic/epigenetic features, survival, and quality of life of MGUS patients in first-degree relatives of multiple myeloma patients in China.

All participants will receive M-protein screening by serum electrophoresis. Individuals with detected M-protein will undergo further diagnostic tests, and patients with MGUS will be carefully assessed and followed up.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Sample of BloodDiagnostic test

    All participants will receive M-protein screening by serum electrophoresis. Individuals with detected M-protein will undergo further diagnostic tests to determine their accurate diagnosis. Patients with monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (MGUS) would be carefully assessed and followed up.

What is being measured

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

  1. The prevalence of monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (MGUS) in MM first-degree relatives

    The prevalence of MGUS in MM first-degree relatives: defined as the proportion of MGUS cases among the total population ( MM first-degree relatives) receiving M-protein screening

    Measured: 2 Years

  2. Time to progression (TTP) from MGUS to overt multiple myeloma

    The time interval between the first diagnosis of MGUS and the first recording of participants and the diagnosis of myeloma. For participants who did not record disease progression to myeloma, the last follow-up date was used as the cut-off date.

    Measured: 10 Years

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Overall survival of MGUS patients

    The time interval between the first diagnosis of MGUS and the recording of death from any cause. For participants whose death is not recorded, the cut-off date is the most recent point at which it is known that the participant is still alive.

    Measured: 10 Years

  2. Quality of life (QoL) of MGUS patients

    QoL evaluation was performed using the Patient Self-Rating Scale (EORTC QLQ - C30) during the case screening period and at each follow-up period.

    Measured: 10 Years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Multiple Myeloma and Monoclonal Gammopathy of Undetermined Significance, run by Shanghai Zhongshan Hospital at 1 site in China.

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 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 1 Aug 2023. 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 China. 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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

Contact Peng Liu, PhD, MD (+8621-64041990 ext. 2925, liu.peng@zs-hospital.sh.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The prevalence of monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (MGUS) in MM first-degree relatives (time frame: 2 Years). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT05965115, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 1 Aug 2023.
