Brief Summary
The purpose of the study is to determine the safety and efficacy of the use of bendamustine in combination with a commonly used combination chemotherapy to treat relapsed and refractory multiple myeloma. The study will be conducted in two phases. Participants in phase I will receive 1 of 4 escalating doses of bendamustine. Once the maximum tolerated dose of bendamustine is determined, phase II of this trial will begin. Participants in phase II will receive the maximum tolerated dose of bendamustine in combination with standard of care chemotherapy.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Number of Patients Experiencing a Toxicity
The number of patients experiencing at least one toxicity at the lowest dose of bendamustine. A toxicity is defined as one or more of the following: Upper respiratory infection; anemia; thrombocytopenia; neutropenia; shortness of breath on exertion; decreased appetite; nausea; neuropathy; anxiety; arthritis; and hypercalcemia.
21 days
Study Arms (1)
Bendamustine
EXPERIMENTALBendamustine is combined with standard chemotherapy.
Interventions
The first group of three patients to enter the study will receive a 25 mg/m\^2 dose of bendamustine. If this dose is found to be safe, the next three patients will receive 50 mg/m\^2. Using a modified Fibonacci dose-escalation design, the dose will continue to increase at a rate of 25 mg/m\^2 until the highest safe dose of bendamustine is found. The maximum dose will be 125 mg/m\^2. Bendamustine and bortezomib will be given through a catheter twice a week every 21 days. Dexamethasone and lenalidomide will be given orally. In general, a cycle of chemotherapy will last 21 days.
