What the study is about

The purpose of the study is to evaluate if firefighter exposure to hazardous compounds will increase the incidence of premalignant hematological states which subsequently increases the risk of the development of hematologic malignancies, and potentially other pathophysiological consequences.

Being studied: Monoclonal Gammopathy; Complete Blood Count with differential (CBC w/ diff); Clonal hematopoiesis (CHIP)

Conditions: Clonal Hematopoiesis of Indeterminate Potential; Monoclonal Gammopathy; Non Hodgkin Lymphoma; Leukemia; Multiple Myeloma; Plasma Cell Disorder
