MM-CARE: Cardiovascular Risk Assessment in Adults With Multiple Myeloma (NCT07783607)
A Pilot Feasibility Study of Oncology-Embedded Versus Primary Care-Directed Cardiovascular Risk Assessment in Adults With Multiple Myeloma Starting a New Line of Therapy
🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)
People with multiple myeloma may have health conditions or receive treatments that increase their risk of heart and blood-vessel problems. This pilot study will evaluate whether a structured heart-health assessment can be completed successfully and on time when adults with multiple myeloma start a new line of treatment. Participants who do not require urgent treatment in the hospital will be assigned by chance to receive the assessment from either an internal medicine clinician working with the oncology team or their primary care provider. Participants who require urgent inpatient treatment will receive the oncology-embedded assessment during their hospital stay. Researchers expect that both approaches will be practical, but the approaches may differ in how often and how quickly the assessments are completed. The study will also collect information about care recommendations, quality of life, physical activity, diet, usual-care blood test and electrocardiogram results, and heart-related health events. Because this is a small pilot study, it is not designed to determine whether one approach provides better health outcomes than the other.
