Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years+
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • All patients must have a confirmed diagnosis of previously treated, active multiple myeloma
  • Myeloma protein should be evident from which to evaluate response
  • Must be 18 years of age or older. Women of childbearing age and fertile men must use a medically acceptable means of birth control while on study and for 6 months thereafter.
  • Patients must sign an informed consent to participate in this study, and be fully aware of the known teratogenic potential of this drug
  • Patients must have a total white blood cell count of 2,000 K/microliters. Patients may be anemic or thrombocytopenic provided this is felt to be due to extensive marrow involvement with myeloma
  • Patients must have adequate liver function as demonstrated by a direct bilirubin of \< or = 2.0 mg/dL.

You may not qualify if:

  • Patients must not have an active infection requiring parenteral antibiotics
  • No other concurrent therapy for myeloma is permitted while on Thalidomide
