Overview
Brief Summary
This research study is being done to see if combining the investigational chemotherapy drug, MEDI-551 with the known anti-myeloma drugs, Lenalidomide and Dexamethasone will reduce your myeloma cancer stem cells.
Detailed Description
To explore the effect of Lenalidomide, dexamethasone and Medi-551 on multiple myeloma cancer stem cells (CSCs). Myeloma CSCs will be assessed by a clonogenic assay from the bone marrow and flow cytometry from peripheral blood.

Arms & Interventions
Lenalidomide, Dexamethasone, and MEDI-551
Eligible patients will receive Lenalidomide and dexamethasone as per standard of care guidelines for 2 cycles. Patients with a clinical response to lenalidomide and dexamethasone after 2 cycles will proceed to get MEDI-551 for 2 cycles. MEDI-551 will be dosed at 4mg/kg IV on days 1 and 8 of cycle 3 and 4mg/kg IV on day 1 of cycle 4.
Intervention: Lenalidomide, Dexamethasone, and MEDI-551 (Drug)
Outcomes

Time Frame: 16 weeks
Secondary Outcomes
- The safety of Medi-551 when combined with Lenalidomide and dexamethasone.(28 weeks)
