Official title
A Phase II Trial of Rituximab for Peripheral Neuropathy Associated With Monoclonal Gammopathy of Undetermined Significance (MGUS)
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
This study was done to find out if the investigational medication, rituximab, could help relieve the symptoms of peripheral neuropathy (such as numbness \[abnormal protein in the blood\] and weakness of the lower and upper extremities) in people who have monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance and people with a symptomatic or smoldering Waldestrom macroglobulinemia. Rituximab is an antibody which attacks a particular type of white blood cell (B Cell). By targeting the B-cells which make the abnormal protein which is involved in causing the nerve trouble, it is hoped that damage to nerve fibers will be stopped and improvement will be allowed to proceed.
