Not a medical device. Not a diagnosis, dose, or listing recommendation.

What it computes

Apply the Rajkumar 2014 International Myeloma Working Group updated criteria for multiple myeloma requiring therapy: clonal bone marrow plasma cells ≥10% or biopsy-proven plasmacytoma plus at least one myeloma-defining event (CRAB or SLiM).

When to use

When an agent already has caller-assigned IMWG 2014 entry and myeloma-defining event flags and needs the published combination. magent does not diagnose myeloma, does not assay calcium, creatinine, hemoglobin, or free light chains, and does not read MRI.

When not to use

  • Not a medical device.
  • Not a diagnosis. Criteria met is not a multiple myeloma diagnosis without the rest of the IMWG 2014 workup.
  • Not smouldering multiple myeloma, MGUS, POEMS, or amyloid. This tool is myeloma requiring therapy only.
  • Not Greipp ISS (myeloma-iss). Not R-ISS.
  • magent does not assay calcium, creatinine, hemoglobin, or free light chains, and does not read MRI. All flags are caller-assigned.
  • If marrow clonal plasma cells are <10%, more than one bone lesion is required to distinguish solitary plasmacytoma; that is the caller’s assignment of osteolytic_lesion.
  • flc_ratio_ge_100 is the caller-assigned combination of involved:uninvolved serum free light-chain ratio ≥100 and involved free light chain ≥100 mg/L as published for the Freelite assay (Rajkumar 2014). magent does not assay free light chains.

Formula

myeloma iff clonal_bmpc_ge_10_or_plasmacytoma and ≥1 myeloma-defining event (hypercalcemia, renal_insufficiency, anemia, osteolytic_lesion, bmpc_ge_60, flc_ratio_ge_100, or mri_gt_1_focal) (Rajkumar 2014 IMWG definition of multiple myeloma requiring therapy). Not a diagnosis. Not smouldering MM, MGUS, POEMS, or amyloid. Not Greipp ISS. Not R-ISS

Parameters

Name Type Required Description
clonal_bmpc_ge_10_or_plasmacytoma boolean required Clonal bone marrow plasma cells ≥10% or biopsy-proven bony or extramedullary plasmacytoma, as assigned by the caller (Rajkumar 2014 IMWG entry for myeloma requiring therapy). true or false. When false, myeloma is false even if a myeloma-defining event is true. magent does not read a marrow or biopsy.
hypercalcemia boolean required Hypercalcemia as assigned by the caller (Rajkumar 2014 CRAB): serum calcium >0.25 mmol/L (>1 mg/dL) above the upper limit of normal or >2.75 mmol/L (>11 mg/dL). true or false. magent does not assay calcium.
renal_insufficiency boolean required Renal insufficiency as assigned by the caller (Rajkumar 2014 CRAB): creatinine clearance <40 mL/min or serum creatinine >177 µmol/L (>2 mg/dL). true or false. magent does not assay creatinine.
anemia boolean required Anemia as assigned by the caller (Rajkumar 2014 CRAB): hemoglobin value >20 g/L below the lower limit of normal or hemoglobin <100 g/L. true or false. magent does not assay hemoglobin.
osteolytic_lesion boolean required One or more osteolytic lesions on skeletal radiography, CT, or PET-CT, as assigned by the caller (Rajkumar 2014 CRAB). If marrow clonal plasma cells are <10%, more than one bone lesion is required to distinguish solitary plasmacytoma; that is the caller’s assignment of this flag. true or false. magent does not read imaging.
bmpc_ge_60 boolean required Clonal bone marrow plasma cells ≥60%, as assigned by the caller (Rajkumar 2014 SLiM). true or false. magent does not read a marrow.
flc_ratio_ge_100 boolean required Involved:uninvolved serum free light-chain ratio ≥100 and involved free light chain ≥100 mg/L, as assigned by the caller as this one flag (Rajkumar 2014 SLiM). true or false. magent does not assay free light chains.
mri_gt_1_focal boolean required >1 focal lesion on MRI, each ≥5 mm, as assigned by the caller (Rajkumar 2014 SLiM). true or false. magent does not read MRI.

Bulk (POST)

POST the same path with a JSON items array. The first item is the GET unit; each additional item is $0.002. Invalid items return HTTP 400 before settlement.

POST /api/calc/imwg_myeloma Max 25 unit_amount + extra_item_amount * (n - 1) extra $0.002 PREVIEW

  • 1 to 25 items. Each item uses the same keys as the GET query parameters.
  • POST of 1 item costs the same as GET. Lists longer than 25: chunk into multiple POSTs. Extra items still execute; do not pad dummy rows.
  • The first invalid item fails the whole request (index in the 400 JSON). You are not charged.
  • HTTP 200 is {count, path, items}. Each items[i] is the GET 200 body for that row.
  • Catalog misses (empty matches, found=false) stay paid 200s inside that slot.
  • x402 resource URL is this path plus n and body_sha256. Browsers that prefer text/html get the same paywall as GET; Pay retries POST with the same items.

Payment

Unpaid requests return HTTP 402 even if query parameters or POST items are missing or invalid, so CDP and agents can index the path. After a PAYMENT-SIGNATURE, invalid params return HTTP 400 JSON before settlement. magent does not charge. Fix the params, then request a new 402 quote for that complete URL. Catalog misses (empty matches, found=false) are valid paid 200s. Unpaid valid requests return HTTP 402 with a base64 PAYMENT-REQUIRED header. HTTP 503 is not a new quote: retry the same PAYMENT-SIGNATURE. Full handshake and shared payment errors: Payments. Stdio MCP: /docs/mcp.

Guarantees

  • HTTP 402 is unpaid, including a missing query. After PAYMENT-SIGNATURE, invalid parameters return HTTP 400 before settlement. You are not charged. HTTP 402 never includes the tool JSON.
  • exact: settlement finishes before the tool (paymentFlow upfront). batch-settlement: verify/deposit before the tool; chargedCumulativeAmount commits after HTTP 2xx. Uncertain or failed settlement fails closed (HTTP 503). Retry the same PAYMENT-SIGNATURE.
  • HTTP 402 is unpaid only. Do not sign a second authorization because of a 503.
  • Execution is timeout-bounded and concurrency-capped.
  • Calculator inputs are stored encrypted for allowlisted operators (Magent Console). They are not in public logs, SSH lookups, catalog, or rollups. Request logs store path without query.
