NCT05712967Completed

Role of the Host Microbiota and Il-17 in Favoring Multiple Myeloma Progression

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 1 Mar 2024

Brief summary (registry, in English)

Goal of this observational, non-interventional study is to demonstrate that in humans a correlation exists between bone marrow (BM) levels of the cytokine interleukin 17 (IL-17) and composition of the gut microbiota in patients affected by smoldering multiple myeloma (SMM) or multiple myeloma (MM). Enrolled SMM/MM patients will be analyzed for their bone marrow levels of IL-17 together with the distribution of T helper 17 lymphocytes in their BM and peripheral blood. These analyses will be correlated with analyses of the patients' gut microbiome to identify commensal bacteria potentially involved in Th17 cell expansion.
