Clinical Trial Summary

The study is looking at how myeloma is related to low oxygen levels (hypoxia) in the bone marrow. This is to understand the disease better. It might also guide treatment in the future. For the study, we will run tests on a portion of the samples taken during a bone marrow biopsy. A bone marrow biopsy is taken as part of the diagnosis or follow up of myeloma. The tests in our study will look closely at the make-up of immune cells in the bone marrow, highlight areas of low oxygen, and look at genetic changes in cells from low-oxygen areas. We will ask patients to take a capsule the day before their bone marrow biopsy containing pimonidazole hydrochloride, a substance which will show up areas of low oxygen on tests. Overall we want to know: 1. If myeloma cells 'live' in areas of low oxygen in the bone marrow 2. What are the immune and bone marrow cells which are neighbours of myeloma cells? 3. Are there genetic changes in low oxygen myeloma cells For the pilot study, we want to know: 4. Can we use new techniques to study questions 1-3? The techniques we want to use are pimonidazole with multiplex immunohistochemistry and single cell RNA sequencing. The information we get from the tests will help us get a better understanding of how myeloma works. Future studies may also use these results to develop new kinds of drugs for myeloma.
