About this trial
The association between multiple myeloma (MM) and venous thromboembolism (VTE) is well known. Indeed, the incidence of VTE is increased in patients with newly diagnosed MM and in patients treated by immunomodulatory drugs in combination with glucocorticoids. Moreover, the clinical outcome of MM is supposed to be correlated to the risk of thrombosis. At the biological level, a number of hemostasis abnormalities participate in increasing VTE incidence. Yet, data on predictive biomarkers linked to VTE are limited.

Treatments tested in this trial
Blood samples
Other interventionPeripheral blood sampling will be performed at different time points of the study, for a total volume of 20-40 mL: * Sampling before MM treatment, * Sampling during MM treatment (at 3 months post-initiation if no autograft or before autograft), * Only for Patients treated with Apixaban or Eliquis®, 2 additional samplings during MM treatment for pharmacokinetics analysis.
