Will you join the mission to help stop myeloma before it starts?

You may be uniquely suited to help find the cure if you're either African American or a first-degree family member of someone with signs of blood-related pre-cancer. We invite you to join!

OUR STUDY

THE PROMISE study is the first study to test healthy people who may be at risk for early warning signs of a blood cancer called multiple myeloma.

 

We will further study people who test positive for these early warning signs of multiple myeloma so that we can learn how to prevent them from developing into cancer. 

OUR GOALS

This study aims to make multiple myeloma a cancer that is preventable.
