Comprehensive Myeloma Protein Panel (CMPP) Mini 1 test primarily used to help diagnose multiple myeloma, a cancer affecting the bone marrow and plasma cells. It can also be used to identify monoclonal gammopathy, which can be a precursor to myeloma or a sign of another plasma cell disorder. It can be used to monitor disease progression, assess the effectiveness of treatment, and detect relapses of myeloma.

More Information about Comprehensive Myeloma Protein Panel (CMPP) Mini 1 test

Multiple myeloma (MM) is a type of blood cancer that arises from plasma cells, a type of white blood cell found in the bone marrow. In multiple myeloma, these plasma cells become abnormal (malignant) and multiply uncontrollably, interfering with normal blood cell production and causing various complications.
