Summary
This is a research study for newly diagnosed multiple myeloma or multiple myeloma has returned (relapsed). Multiple myeloma is a type of cancer that begins in white blood cells called plasma cells. Plasma cells make proteins that help fight infections. Current therapy for multiple myeloma includes high dose chemotherapy and autologous (patient's own cells) stem cell transplantation.
There will be two parts (or phases) to this study:
The purpose of the first part is to find the highest dose of a drug called lenalidomide (Revlimid®) that can be given in combination with high dose melphalan without causing severe adverse events.
The purpose of the second part is to find out the effects of this treatment (good and bad) on multiple myeloma patients.
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria
- Phase I: Patients with diagnosis of multiple myeloma at any stage of disease undergoing high dose chemotherapy and stem cell transplantation.
- Phase II: Patients with myeloma undergoing a first high dose chemotherapy and stem cell transplantation after achieving at least stable disease following induction therapy. Any induction regimen prior to transplantation is allowed. No more than 2 prior lines of therapy prior to transplantation are allowed.
- All previous therapy not associated with peripheral blood stem cell transplant, including radiation, hormonal therapy, and surgery, must have been discontinued 4 weeks prior to treatment in this study.
- ECOG performance status of </= 2 at study entry
- Laboratory test results within protocol-specified ranges
- All study participants must be registered into the mandatory RevAssist® program, and be willing and able to comply with the requirements of RevAssist®
- Females of childbearing potential must have negative pregnancy test within 24 hours of first prescription for lenalidomide and must commit to either continued abstinence from heterosexual intercourse or begin TWO acceptable methods of birth control.
- Able to take aspirin daily as prophylactic anticoagulation
- Subject must have the minimum stem cell dose of 5.0 x 10^6 CD34+ cells/kg collected.
Exclusion Criteria
- Pregnant or breast feeding females
- History of intolerance or resistance to lenalidomide
- Known hypersensitivity to thalidomide
- The development of erythema nodosum if characterized by a desquamating rash while taking thalidomide or similar drugs.
- Known seropositive for or active viral infection with human immunodeficiency vrus (HIV), hepatitis B virus (HBV) or hepatitis C virus (HCV). Patients who are seropositive because of hepatitis b virus vaccine are eligible.
