Changes in serum-free light chain rather than intact monoclonal immunoglobulin levels predicts outcome following therapy in primary amyloidosis

Current response criteria for light-chain amyloidosis (AL) relegate FLC response to a subsidiary status relative to serum M-protein response. Given that light chains form the substrate for amyloid fibril formation, we hypothesized that changes in FLC might better predict outcome compared to changes...
