Conclusion:
Our results demonstrate clinical correlation and molecular characterization of CMMCs from MGUS/SMM patients. This study provides a foundation for non-invasive detection, enumeration and genomic interrogation of rare CMMCs from the peripheral blood of MGUS/SMM, illustrating the clinical potential of using liquid biopsies for monitoring and managing disease in the precursor setting of MM.
The PCROWD Study
invites people with precursor conditions to share samples a few times each year when they are collected as part of routine follow up care. Allow us to track changes that occur in their samples and medical record
OUR STUDY'S GOAL
We aim to track 10,000 individuals with early stages of blood cancer or precursor conditions which include (in alphabetical order):
Clonal Hematopoiesis of Indeterminate Potential (CHIP)
Monoclonal B cell Lymphocytosis (MBL)
Myelodysplastic Syndrome (MDS)
Monoclonal Gammopathy of Undetermined Significance (MGUS)
Myeloproliferative Neoplasms (MPN) -such as Polycythemia Vera, Essential Thrombocythemia, or Myelofibrosis
Smoldering or Indolent Multiple Myeloma (SMM)
Smoldering Waldenström Macroglobulinemia (SWM)
OTHER precursor hematological condition
We will greatly expand the available data that will help us predict, and ultimately prevent, these types of blood cancers from progressing.
The IMPACT study is an affiliate study of the PROMISE and PCROWD Studies.
