Brief Summary

This is a study of a regimen of melphalan and autologous stem cells for patients with multiple myeloma. We hypothesize that this particular regimen will improve the survival of these patients.

Study Arms (1)

Chemotherapy and Transplant Treatment

EXPERIMENTAL

Patients receiving peripheral blood stem cell mobilization, chemotherapy (cyclophosphamide + Mesna, growth factor (Granulocyte-colony stimulating factor) and autologous Peripheral Blood Stem Cell transplant with high dose melphalan (200 mg/m\^2). Post-transplant maintenance therapy is then prescribed if appropriate.

Procedure: Stem Cell TransplantDrug: Cyclophosphamide + MesnaDrug: MelphalanBiological: Granulocyte-colony stimulating factor

Interventions

As part of the stem cell transplant process, patients receive high doses of chemotherapy and/or radiation to treat their underlying disease, such as cancer. As one of its effects, this treatment also kills the healthy stem cells that are already in the marrow. The transplant provides new stem cells for the patient from a healthy donor; that replace the bone marrow and allow the blood counts to recover.

Also known as: Bone Marrow Transplant
Chemotherapy and Transplant Treatment

Cyclophosphamide: 4mg/m\^2 + Mesna. Mesna is used to reduce the undesired side effects of certain chemotherapy drugs.

Also known as: Cytoxan
Chemotherapy and Transplant Treatment

Administered intravenously 200 mg/m\^2

Also known as: Alkeran
Chemotherapy and Transplant Treatment

Administered intravenously 10 ug/kg/day pretransplant then 5 ug/kg/day post-transplant.

  • After achieving initial response and later disease progression, patient will be eligible after subsequent therapy upon achievement of either complete or partial response
  • Is not eligible or has refused any protocols of higher priority
  • years of age
  • Adequate organ function defined as:
  • Hematologic: hemoglobin ≥ 8 gm/dl (untransfused), white blood cells (WBC) ≥ 3000/μl, absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥ 1500/μl, platelets ≥ 100,000/μl (untransfused)
  • Cardiac: no active ischemia, left ventricular ejection fraction \> 45% by MUGA scan
  • Hepatic: bilirubin \< 2.0 mg/dl, ALT \< 3x the upper limit of normal
  • Pulmonary: FEV1-Forced Expiratory Volume in One Second AND Forced vital capacity (FVC) \>50% predicted and Carbon Monoxide Diffusing Capacity (DLCO) (corrected) \> 50% predicted
  • Performance status: Karnofsky performance of \> 80%.
  • Free of active uncontrolled infection at the time of study entry.
  • At time of study enrollment \> 4 weeks from prior myelosuppressive chemotherapy; and \> 6 weeks from prior nitrosoureas.
  • Patients must exercise informed voluntary consent and sign a consent form approved by the University of Minnesota IRB: Human Subjects Committee.

You may not qualify if:

  • Patients will be ineligible if they have advanced myeloma refractory and unresponsive to salvage chemotherapy regimens.
  • Female patients who are pregnant (positive b-HCG) or breastfeeding will be excluded from study entry. In addition fertile men or women unwilling to use contraceptive techniques during and for 12 months following treatment, particularly after thalidomide will also be excluded from study entry.
