Monitoring of serum free immunoglobulin light chains (FLC) in 26 myeloma patients who achieved immunofixation negativity after allografting showed a decrease of FLC at a median of 128 days before immunofixation negativity. In patients who subsequently relapsed, a 25% increase of FLC was observed at a median of 98 days before immunofixation positivity.
