Overview

Brief Summary

PRIMARY STUDY OBJECTIVES

  • To evaluate the efficacy of the combination of bortezomib, dexamethasone, with and without DOXIL, followed by high-dose cyclophosphamide as a therapy for two different subsets of multiple myeloma patients:

    1. Patients post first line therapy
    2. Patients with relapsed/refractory disease who are bortezomib-naïve
  • To evaluate the safety of the combination of bortezomib and dexamethasone, with and without DOXIL, followed by high-dose cyclophosphamide as therapy for patients with multiple myeloma.

SECONDARY STUDY OBJECTIVES

  • To evaluate the role of the combination of bortezomib dexamethasone, with and without DOXIL, followed by high-dose cyclophosphamide on the ability to collect > 10 x 106 CD34+ cells/kg in < 7 collections (for both subsets of multiple myeloma patients).
  • To evaluate the survival of patients who receive the combination of bortezomib dexamethasone, with and without DOXIL, followed by high-dose cyclophosphamide (for both subsets of patients).

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

  • Subject must voluntarily sign and understand written informed consent.
  • Confirmed diagnosis of multiple myeloma as specified by the SWOG criteria and is detailed in Appendix I.
  • Measurable disease as defined the following:
  • For patients post induction therapy, any measurable paraprotein in the serum or urine and/or any plasmacytoma present on physical exam or imaging.
  • For patients with relapsed/refractory disease, \> 0.5 g/dL serum monoclonal protein, \> 0.1 g/dL serum free light chains, \> 0.2 g/24 hrs urinary M-protein excretion, and/or measurable plasmacytoma(s).
  • Age \> or = than 18 years at the time of signing the informed consent form.
  • Karnofsky performance status\> or =70% (\>60% if due to bony involvement of myeloma).
  • Group A (post-induction therapy)- patients who have received only one prior treatment regimen (eg VAD, Thal/Dex, BLT-D, MP, BiRD, or DVd) with at least 20 patients having received a Revlimid based regimen or Group B(\>1st line of therapy)- patients with relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma who have received two or more prior treatment regimens .
  • If the patient is a woman of childbearing age, she must have a negative serum or urine pregnancy test within 7 days of starting study and must use effective contraception throughout the course of the study.
  • Life expectancy \> 12 weeks.

Exclusion Criteria

  • Patients with non-secretory MM (no measurable monoclonal protein, free light chains, and/or M-spike in blood or urine) unless measurable disease is available with imaging techniques such as MRI and PET scan.
  • Prior treatment with bortezomib.
  • Peripheral neuropathy of \> Grade 2 as defined by CTCAE Version 3.0 (see Appendix II)
  • History of allergic reactions to compounds containing mannitol, bortezomib, conventional formulation of doxorubicin HCL or the components of DOXIL.
  • Prior history of other malignancies (except for basal cell or squamous cell carcinoma of the skin or carcinoma in situ of the cervix or breast) unless disease free for ³ 5 years.
  • NYHA Class III or IV heart disease. History of active unstable angina, congestive heart disease, serious uncontrolled cardiac arrhythmia or myocardial infarction within 6 months.
  • Female patients who are pregnant or breastfeeding. Women of childbearing potential and men must agree to use adequate contraception prior to study entry and for the duration of study participation.
  • Known HIV or hepatitis A, B, or C positivity
  • Active viral or bacterial infections or any coexisting medical problem that would significantly increase the risks of this treatment program.
  • Any concurrent, uncontrolled medical condition, laboratory abnormality, or psychiatric illness which could place him/her at unacceptable risk, including, but not limited to, uncontrolled hypertension, uncontrolled diabetes, active uncontrolled infection, and/or acute chronic liver disease (i.e., hepatitis, cirrhosis).

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Efficacy of Drug Combination as Therapy for Myeloma (Overall Response Rate)

Time Frame: Best response at any point during each respective study phase was collected - once after consolidation/prior to mobilization (approximately 6 cycles after start of treatment), and once after mobilization

Myeloma response criteria developed by Bladé et al. was used to categorize response.

Secondary Outcomes

  • Progression Free Survival(Date of progression, assessed from start of trial to Final data cut off date (15 April 2011))
  • Yield of CD34+ Stem Cells(Occurred after mobilization, and prior to Stem cell transplant; a 7 day limit was imposed on stem cell collection)
