NCT00777998

Brief Summary

The present study will be a multicenter, prospective phase II-study investigating safety and efficacy of the combination of auto-allo tandem stem cell transplantation in patients with multiple myeloma and age of \>\_60 years, followed by maintenance therapy with low-dose Thalidomide and Donor Lymphocyte Infusions.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Event-free survival 4 years after auto-allo/ auto-auto Tandem-SCT. Any of the following will be considered an endpoint event: recurrence or progression of primary disease, disease related mortality, or treatment related mortality.

    four years after Tandem stem cell transplantation

Secondary Outcomes (7)

  • Incidence of acute GvHD

    day +100 after allogeneic stem cell transplantation

  • Incidence of chronic GvHD

    at one year and at two years after allogeneic stem cell transplantation

  • Toxicity of conditioning regimen and of maintenance therapy

    Throughout conditioning regimen and maintenance therapy

  • cumulative incidence of relapse

    four years after Tandem stem cell transplantation

  • Disease related mortality

    four years after allogeneic stem cell transplantation

  • +2 more secondary outcomes

Interventions

\*Multiple myeloma * -\> Induction Therapy (max. 8 cycles) * -\> Registration of patient, stem cell mobilization, start of donor search * -\> Melphalan (200mg/qm) plus autologous PBSCT * -\> 2 months later: Melphalan plus allogeneic PBSCT * -\> day 120 after allogeneic PBSCT: Thalidomide, 100mg (max. 2 years or until progress or non-tolerable toxicity, respectively) * -\> day 180 after allogeneic PBSCT (if CsA discontinued): First DLI (1 x 10\^6 (MRD) or 5 x 10\^5 (MUD) CD3+ cells per kg BW) * -\> day 250 after allogeneic PBSCT: second DLI (if no signs of GvHD: dose escalation by 0,5 Log) * -\> Day 320 after allogeneic PBSCT: Third DLI (if no signs of GvHD: dose escalation by 0,5 Log) * -\> Further DLI depending on MRD-measurement

A

\*Multiple myeloma * -\> Induction Therapy (max. 8 cycles) * -\> Registration of patient, stem cell mobilization, start of donor search * -\> Melphalan (200mg/qm) plus autologous PBSCT * -\> if no donor available (max 4 weeks after autologous PBSCT) or if patients declines allogeneic PBSCT): 2 months: Melphalan (200mg/qm) plus autologous PBSCT * -\> day 120 after autologous PBSCT: Thalidomide, 100mg (max. 2 years or until progress or non-tolerable toxicity, respectively)
