Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| The aim o the study is to prospectively validate a prognostic scoring sytem for outcomes (EFS,OS) of autologous transplantation in Multiple Myeloma, developed retrospectively at Hammersmith Hospital, London, based on tumour load at diagnosis (Plasmacell% on trephine),cytogenetic aberrations (FISH and metaphase cytogenetics) and treatment responses to chemotherapy prior to autologous transplant. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Test the predictive power of the score to identify a subgroup of high risk patients who currently profit least from autologous stem cell transplantion and may be candidates for therapeutic trials of novel agents. Develop the prognostic score as a tool for such risk adapted therapies. Validate the scoring sytem in patients treated with novel agents/drug combinations Further definition of cytogenetic risk groups | — |
