NCT01096810

Brief Summary

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to see if TBL 12, which is a blend of Sea Cucumber, Sea Sponge, Shark Fin, and Sea Urchin (animals that live in the Pacific Ocean) as well as Sargassum (a plant that lives in the Pacific Ocean), will have effects against asymptomatic multiple myeloma and to see what the side effects are. Eligibility: Several criteria must be met to be eligible for this study, including but not limited to the following:

  • a diagnosis of asymptomatic multiple myeloma
  • adequate cardiac, liver and kidney function
  • age 18 and older

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Time to Progression

    To determine the time to progression of asymptomatic multiple myeloma patients receiving TBL 12. The time to progression will be measured in units of a cycle (28 day cycles). Progression is defined using the International Uniform Response Criteria for Multiple Myeloma (Leukemia (2006)20:1467-1473). Which requires one or more of the following: \>25% increase in SPEP (must also be an absolute increase of at least 5 g/dL), \>25% increase in UPEP (must also be an absolute increase of at least 200 mg/24 hours), \>25% increase in bone marrow plasma cells (must also be an absolute increase of at least 10%), new lytic bone lesions or soft tissue plasmacytomas, or development of hypercalcemia (not attributable to any other cause).

    From date of treatment until the date of first documented progression

  • Response Rate

    The response rate - percentage of participants with overall response. Overall response for any participants that has achieved at least a PR or better (PR, VGPR, CR, sCR) is defined using the International Uniform Response Criteria for Multiple Myeloma (Leukemia (2006)20:1467-1473) . Which requires the following: at least \>50% reduction in SPEP, at least \>90% reduction or \<200 mg in UPEP, at least \>50% reduction in the size of soft tissue plasmacytomas, no lytic bone lesions or similar definition that is accurate and appropriate.

    from date of start of treatment until the date of best documented response up to date of progression
