Brief Summary
Protocol DSMM VIII is a multi-center, open-label study evaluating the safety and tolerability, as well as the efficacy, of maintenance treatment with VELCADE (bortezomib) in patients with multiple myeloma with detectable disease activity following tandem high-dose chemotherapy and autologous SCT. The time from SCT to the initiation of VELCADE treatment will be 3 to 6 months.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Primary endpoints are to study the safety of four cycles of VELCADE in patients with multiple myeloma following high-dose chemotherapy and autologous PBSCT.
Secondary Outcomes (4)
The secondary objectives of this study are to assess the efficacy of four cycles of VELCADE at two different dose levels as maintenance treatment in patients with multiple myeloma
and detectable residual disease following high-dose chemotherapy and autologous PBSCT
to assess the 2 year progression-free survival
and to assess the 2 year overall survival.
