NCT00577642

Brief Summary

The purpose of this research study is to define the time a molecule in the participants bones called NTX begins to rise after receiving treatment with bisphosphonates. NTX is measured in the urine to determine the rate of bone breakdown. Tracking this marker may help identify a more optimal dosing schedule of bisphosphonate therapy. Bisphosphonate drugs like zoledronic acid, which will be used in this study, are used to reduce pain and bone fractures in people with multiple myeloma. There is some laboratory data to suggest that they may work against myeloma. Participants will have already undergone bisphosphonate therapy and may have received zoledronic acid as treatment. Typically these agents are continued indefinitely. Due to concerns of their long-term side effects we are looking at alternate strategies for reducing the frequency of these agents.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Number of Participants With Urinary NTX Levels Less Than or Equal to 50nmol/mmol Cr

    Number of participants with urinary NTX levels less than or equal to 50 nmol/mmol creatinine (Cr) for the duration of study followup, following a single dose Zoledronic Acid (Zoledronate) 4mg IV over at least 15 minutes (or dose corrected for creatinine clearance x1). Dose administration was followed by Aminobisphosphonates (aBP) treatment cessation during study period.

    6 months

Study Arms (1)

Single arm

OTHER

Single arm biomarker study after a single dose of zoledronic acid

Drug: Zoledronic acid

Interventions

4mg IV over at least 15 minutes or corrected for creatinine clearance x 1

Also known as: Zometa
Single arm

Eligibility Criteria

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

You may qualify if:

  • Men or women 18 years of age or older
  • Confirmed diagnosis of multiple myeloma(MM) by Durie and Dalmon staging criteria on IV bisphosphonate therapy with either pamidronate or zoledronic acid for 8-12 months
  • MM patients in either CR (complete response) or PR (partial response) by EBMT criteria
  • ECOG Performance Status of 0-2

You may not qualify if:

  • MM patients on active anti-MM therapy (maintenance regimens allowed)
  • Renal failure with serum creatinine \>2mg/dL and/or creatinine clearance of \<30ml/min
  • Relapsed, refractory or progressive disease
  • Any condition or situation that, in the opinion of the investigator, may put the subject at significant risk, confound the results of the study, or interfere significantly with the subject's participation in the study
  • Hypersensitivity or any contraindication to a single dose of zoledronic acid
