Gene Expression Profiles of Multiple Myeloma Before Treatment

Samples in this series are pre-treatment bone marrow aspirates from multiple myeloma patients Keywords = CKS1B in Multiple Myeloma, Bone Marrow, Pre-Treatment Keywords: other Samples in this series are: 1. CD-138-selected plasma cells from bone marrow of newly diagnosed multiple myeloma patients susequently treated with Total Therapy 2 (pre-treatment TT2) 2. CD-138-selected plasma cells from bone marrow of newly diagnosed multiple myeloma patients susequently treated with Total Therapy 3 (pre treatment TT3). Overall Design: Baseline gene expression signatures were used to: 1) develop unsupervised hierarchical cluster classes; 2) establish links with outcome following stem cell transplantation CEL files are available upon request via a Materials Transfer Agreement.
