The purpose of this study is to measure the incidence of hyperpigmentation in Black participants with multiple myeloma (MM) treated with immunomodulatory drugs (IMiDs) compared with Black participants with MM not treated with IMiDs. The study will use de-identified data from electronic medical records in the Flatiron Health database.
