Non-invasive MRD Assessment in Multiple Myeloma

Non-Invasive Minimal Residual Disease (MRD) Assessment in Multiple Myeloma Via Functional Imaging and Liquid Biopsy

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 7 Jan 2026

Brief summary (registry, in English)

The purpose of this study is to investigate the sensitivity and accuracy of non-invasive MRD assessment using liquid biopsy (blood draw) and functional imaging (whole body MRI) in participants with new diagnosed and previously treated multiple myeloma. The long-term goal of this study is to investigate whether non-invasive methods for MRD assessment can replace bone marrow aspiration and biopsy in a substantial percentage of participants with multiple myeloma.

Who cannot take part

Copied verbatim from ClinicalTrials.gov and grouped by topic. Only the trial team decides who can take part.

Prior treatment

  • Metallic implants, which would prohibit patient from undergoing MRI All subjects will be screened for any contraindication to MRI as per their guidelines at the time of patient enrollment.
  • Patients must not receive granulocyte colony stimulating factor (G-CSF) or granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) injection within 1 week prior to WB-DWI.
  • Patients must not have been initiated on treatment prior to baseline disease assessment by bone marrow aspiration/biopsy and/or WB-DWI Up to 160 mg of dexamethasone (or equivalent) and/or 1 dose of bortezomib (+/- Cyclophosphamide-Dexamethasone) is allowed prior to disease assessment by bone marrow aspiration and WB-DWI.

Other

  • Patients without cognitive capacity to give informed consent for participation
  • Patients with contraindications to MRI, which include the following:
  • Claustrophobia, which, at investigator's discretion, would prohibit patient from undergoing whole body diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (WB-DWI)
  • Pacemaker

Who the study is looking for

  • Adults age ≥18 years
  • Patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma
  • Patients with previously treated multiple myeloma with a maximum of two prior lines of therapy
  • Expected life expectancy of greater than one year and intention to start a new line of treatment

Age in the registry: 18 years to - · Sex: All · Does not accept healthy volunteers
