M protein detection study for adult patients
Part of Blood & lymphatic, Cancer, Heart & circulation, Immune system & allergy clinical trials.
This study is looking for adults at Zhujiang Hospital to test a new, highly sensitive method for detecting a protein called M protein in the blood. It helps doctors understand how common this protein is in different patients.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study looks at stored blood (serum) samples to see whether a lab test called MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry can help analyze multiple myeloma proteins. If you have multiple myeloma (or are a healthy matched control), your existing lab samples may be used for testing.
This trial is screening people over 30 to find a protein in the blood called M protein, which can be a sign of certain blood conditions. If you have it, the study will follow you over time to learn more.
This trial is screening for a condition called monoclonal gammopathy (abnormal proteins in the blood) using a new testing method. It is for people who are already having certain blood tests as part of their medical care or routine checkup.
This trial studies myeloma (and closely related blood disorders) by using extra blood or bone marrow samples for lab research. It aims to help discover new ways to understand or treat myeloma.
This study uses a blood test to find early signs of myeloma in people at higher risk, such as those with a family history or African ancestry. It aims to predict who might develop myeloma before symptoms appear.
This study looks at how multiple myeloma (a bone marrow cancer) changes over time, especially why it becomes resistant to treatment or comes back. It may help researchers learn what drives relapse and could lead to better future treatments.
