Brief Summary

RATIONALE: Biological therapies, such as lenalidomide, may stimulate the immune system in different ways and stop cancer cells from growing. Vaccines may help the body build an effective immune response to kill cancer cells. Giving lenalidomide together with vaccine therapy may make a stronger immune response and kill more cancer cells. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well giving lenalidomide together with vaccine therapy works in treating patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma.

Study Arms (2)

Group 1

EXPERIMENTAL

Patients receive oral lenalidomide on days 1-21. Treatment repeats every 28 days for up to 7 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients receive pneumococcal polyvalent vaccine intramuscularly (IM) 14 days prior to beginning lenalidomide and again in approximately 2 months (after the first dose of the vaccine).

Biological: pneumococcal polyvalent vaccineDrug: lenalidomide

Group 2

EXPERIMENTAL

Patients receive lenalidomide as in group 1. Patients receive pneumococcal polyvalent vaccine IM approximately 45 days after beginning lenalidomide and again in approximately 2 months (after the first dose of the vaccine).

Biological: pneumococcal polyvalent vaccineDrug: lenalidomide
