简要总结
The purpose of this research is to study how helpful the combination of thalidomide and Pamidronate or thalidomide and Zometa is in controlling the myeloma disease and to study any side effects.
详细描述
Recently laboratory research found that thalidomide can inhibit the formation of new blood vessels that are necessary for the growth and spread of cancer. In order to grow and increase in size tumors require new blood vessels to supply them with the necessary blood to grow. If we can prevent these new blood vessels feeding the tumor from being formed by using thalidomide we might slow or stop the growth of the tumor. This concept is called "anti-angiogenesis" It is hoped that thalidomide will slow or stop the growth myeloma. However, it cannot be guaranteed that you will benefit if you take part in this study. The treatment you receive may even be harmful.

结局指标
主要结局
Best Response
时间窗: 2 years
Best response to study treatment as defined by protocol-specific response criteria: Complete Response (CR) = absence of urine and serum M-components by immunofixation; bone marrow should be adequately cellular (\>20%) with \<1% monoclonal plasma cells by DNA-clg flow cytometry; serum calcium level must be normal; no new bone lesions nor enlargement of existing lesions; Normalization of serum concentrations of normal immunoglobulins is not required for CR. Partial Response (PR) = Reduction by \> 75% in serum myeloma protein production; Decrease in monoclonal marrow plasmacytosis to \<5%; Decrease in Bence-Jones proteinuria by \>90%; No new lytic bone lesions or soft tissue plasmacytoma. Treatment Failures/Progressive Disease (PD) = Such patients do not fulfill the above criteria and/or have new lytic lesions (but not compression fractures), hypercalcemia, or other new manifestations of disease.
