Arm group label:
Multiple myeloma
Summary:
To provide a comprehensive MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry method for detecting,
characterizing, and quantifying M-protein, and to track M-protein in a very sensitive and
specific manner during patient treatment, providing a more precise test for diagnosing
disease and monitoring patient response to treatment.
Detailed description:
M-protein is a serum biomarker directly related to clonal plasma cell load in Multiple
myeloma (MM) patients and can be used as a diagnostic marker to make out disease and a
quantitative marker to track disease progression and response to treatment.
Identification, typing and quantification of M-proteins are useful for initial diagnosis
of disease, risk stratification and monitoring of response to treatment. Although the
determination of M-protein can be used as an auxiliary diagnosis of multiple myeloma, the
early diagnosis and risk assessment of MM still lack convenient and effective tools for
large-scale screening. In recent years, the use of matter-assisted laser
desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) for proteomic
analysis of complex biological mixtures has attracted extensive attention, and has become
one of the most promising methods for the detection of m proteins. In this study, we
screened the population by MALDI mass spectrometry in order to detect low level
circulating M-protein by a faster and more sensitive method.

to be enrolled. Also, their age- and sex- matched healthy controls making a physical
examination in Zhujiang hospital will be eligible to be enrolled
Sampling method:
Non-Probability Sample
Criteria:
Inclusion Criteria:(1) Inclusion criteria for cases: Serum samples from related people
diagnosed with multiple myeloma were included in MALDI-TOF-MS analysis by serum protein
electrophoresis (SPEP), serum immunofixation electrophoresis (IFE), Ig isotype detection
and other methods. (2) Inclusion criteria of the controls were as follows: individuals in
good health without obvious disease and with normal physical examination report; Avoid

hypertension, diabetes, chronic kidney disease, etc; controls were appropriately selected
that matched cases for age and sex.
