Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (2)
Treatment response up to 2 months after ASCT
1. To evaluate the objective responses after ASCT, the guidelines from the International Myeloma Working (IMW) Group uniform response criteria will be used. 2. Serum free light chain study will be added at the every evaluation of response. 3. To confirm the stringent complete response (sCR) after ASCT, flow cytometry or immunohistochemistry will be used Response Criteria for Multiple Myeloma: the guidelines from the IMW Group uniform response criteria + Add for criteria of near CR (Immunofixation positive CR)
2 months later after last patent received ASCT
Safety and toxicity (frequency of grade 3 or worse toxicities) of the conditioning regimen
NCI Common Toxicity Criteria for Adverse Effects version 4.0 will be used for the examination of toxicities.
2 months later after last patent received ASCT
Secondary Outcomes (2)
Progression free survival(PFS)
2 months later after last patient received ASCT
Overall survival (OS)
2 months later after last patient received ASCT
Study Arms (1)
