简要总结
RATIONALE: Lenalidomide may stop the growth of multiple myeloma by blocking blood flow to the cancer. It may also stimulate the immune system in different ways and stop cancer cells from growing. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as melphalan, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving lenalidomide together with melphalan may kill more cancer cells.
PURPOSE: This randomized phase II trial is studying the side effects and best dose of lenalidomide when given together with melphalan and to see how well they work in treating patients with multiple myeloma.
详细描述
OBJECTIVES:
Primary
- Evaluate the tolerability of 2 different doses of lenalidomide when administered with melphalan in patients with previously untreated multiple myeloma who are not planning to undergo future autologous stem cell transplantation.
Secondary
- Characterize the toxicity profile of lenalidomide in combination with melphalan.
- Determine tumor response in these patients after 2 and 12 courses of induction therapy with lenalidomide and melphalan and after 6 months of maintenance therapy with dexamethasone.
- Determine progression-free and overall survival of these patients.
- Determine time to dose modification and time to dose discontinuation in these patients.
