Multiple myeloma is characterized by the production of monoclonal immunoglobulin (Ig) proteins or protein fragments (M proteins) that have lost their function. The main aim of the study is to determine the safety and efficacy of JNJ-68284528 in various clinical settings. JNJ-68284528 is an
This study will evaluate participants with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma (MM) for whom hematopoietic stem cell transplant is not planned as initial therapy. The data available from other available studies suggests that addition of daratumumab with Velcade (bortezomib), lenalidomide, and
This is a prospective, multicenter, non-comparative, open-label Phase II study. Daratumumab will be administered according to approved label. Approximately 57 subjects located in Greece will be enrolled in the study.
Patients shall receive treatment until disease progression, physician decision,
This is a multicenter, single arm, open-label phase 2 study. Approximately 38 subjects will be enrolled to receive daratumumab + dexamethasone. Treatment cycles have duration of 28 days. Subjects will receive treatment until disease progression, death, unacceptable toxicity or for a maximum of 30
The hypothesis is that the addition of daratumumab administered SC to standard MM regimens will improve responses compared to response data observed in completed phase 3 studies without daratumumab. Disease evaluations will include measurements of myeloma proteins, bone marrow examinations, skeletal
Background. Immunoglobulin light chains are classified as middle molecule uremic toxins together with β2M and parathyroid hormon. They have a mean molecular weight of 25,000 daltons for monomers (k free light chains) and approximately 50,000 daltons for dimers (lambda free light chains).

This is an observational study performed to investigate the clinical benefit of FLC removal by KIDNEY therapy system in patients with cast nephropathy, dialysis dependent renal failure and de novo multiple myeloma. Recruitment commenced in July 2014, in total 20 patients will be recruited.

1. Background and rationale
The development of acute renal failure following cardiac catheterization has been
Hypothesis: 5 to 7 plasma exchanges in addition to conventional therapy at onset of myeloma with acute renal failure, reduces the composite outcome of death, dialysis dependence or a GFR < 30 ml/min/1.73 meter squared at 6 months.
