Evaluation of the Impact of Renal Failure on Correlation and Concordance Between 2 Free Light Chain Assays

Despite adjusted reference ranges for Freelite FLC ratio, there are approximately 12.5% discrepancies in interpretation of FLC ratio between the 2 available assays. They are not linked to renal failure stage and neither of the assays performed better than the other: results must be interpreted taking into account clinical data and the same assay must be used for patient follow-up.
