Clinical Trial Summary

In this study the investigators want to find out more about the addition of the antibiotic, doxycycline, to standard anti-amyloid therapy in people with amyloidosis. The investigators want to find out whether doxycycline improves the response to standard anti-amyloid therapy and whether it causes any problems (side effects).


Clinical Trial Description

Organ response to anti-plasma cell therapy in AL amyloidosis tends to lags behind hematologic response as chemotherapy may not clear pre-formed organ amyloid. Doxycycline has been shown to have inhibitory effects on amyloid fibril formation as well as de-fibrillogenic effects and shown to be beneficial in in vitro, murine models and other preclinical studies. The investigators will prospectively evaluate the safety and efficacy of doxycycline in AL amyloidosis patients when used in conjunction with anti-plasma cell chemotherapy. ;
