Hevylite provides prognostic information to identify patients at higher risk of a poor outcome. These patients may benefit from more frequent monitoring. Test results can predict outcomes, both from baseline tests at diagnosis and during monitoring.
Predict outcome at maximum response to treatment - Identifying patients with optimal response and long survival is important for clinical guidance.
MGUS (Monoclonal Gammopathy of Undetermined Significance) – Like Freelite, Hevylite can identify patients at risk of progression to active disease such as Multiple Myeloma
An abnormal Hevylite ratio at diagnosis is an independent prognostic factor in patients with Multiple Myeloma
