Filter by:The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and effect on the body of Tabalumab (LY2127399) in combination with bortezomib and dexamethasone in Japanese participants with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma (MM).
The purpose of this study is to find out what effects, good and/or bad, the combination of panobinostat and carfilzomib have on the patient's cancer. It will determine the side effects of different dose levels of panobinostat and carfilzomib and determine the best dose and schedule of the two drugs to recommend for future studies. The study will assess the effects of the drug on multiple myeloma. In addition, tests to study the way the drugs work will also be done. The combination of the 2 drug classes have shown both pre-clinical (studies done in the lab) and clinical (studies done with people) effects against multiple myeloma. For this reason, these 2 drugs are being studied in combination to determine the side effects and anti-myeloma effects of the 2 drugs.
Background: - One beneficial treatment for plasma cell myeloma is high-dose chemotherapy followed by stem cell transplant. Researchers want to collect stem cells from the blood for later transplant. Objectives: - To collect stem cells for transplant as part of treatment for plasma cell myeloma. Eligibility: - Individuals at least 18 years of age who will have chemotherapy and stem cell transplant for plasma cell myeloma. Design: - Participants will be screened with a physical exam and medical history. Blood and urine samples will be collected. - Participants will have filgrastim injections for 5 days before collection. This will move stem cells from the bone marrow to the blood. - Participants will have apheresis to collect the stem cells. - Participants who need additional apheresis procedures to collect stem cells will have filgrastim and a dose of plerixafor to improve the collection yield.
Patients are asked to be in this study if they have multiple myeloma and are having tingling, numbness and pain from taking bortezomib (velcade®). Patients who have been diagnosed with multiple myeloma often take bortezomib (velcade®). This research is being done to find out if acupuncture can reduce the nerve pain, tingling, and/or numbness patients experience due to bortezomib (velcade®). Acupuncture is a medical technique of inserting very thin needles into the "energy points" on the body with the aim to restore health and well-being. It has been used widely to treat pain, such as lower back pain and nerve pain. In this study we will see if acupuncture can be used to ease nerve pain and tingling, numbness that is caused by bortezomib.
The purpose of this study is to determine if bortezomib when added to consolidation treatment with thalidomide and prednisolone leads to an improved response in patients with multiple myeloma who have undergone autologous stem cell transplant and initial treatment with bortezomib, cyclophosphamide, and dexamethasone.
This study represents the first-in-human study for CP-751,871. The study aimed to define the safety, tolerability, and maximum tolerated dose of CP-751,871 in patients with multiple myeloma through a dose escalation design.
This pilot phase I trial studies the side effects and the best dose of giving viral therapy to patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma. Viral therapy, such as wild-type reovirus, may be able to kill cancer cells without damaging normal cells.
The goal of this clinical research study is to find the highest tolerable dose of Siltuximab that can be given in combination with Velcade (bortezomib), Revlimid (lenalidomide), and dexamethasone to patients with MM. The safety of this drug combination will also be studied.
This is a randomized phase III trial of CC-5013 (lenalidomide, NSC-703813) and low dose dexamethasone (LLD) versus bortezomib (PS-341, NSC-681239), lenalidomide and low dose dexamethasone (BLLD) for induction, in patients with previously untreated multiple myeloma without an intent for immediate autologous stem cell transplant.
This phase II trial studies how well giving fludarabine phosphate, melphalan, and low-dose total-body irradiation (TBI) followed by donor peripheral blood stem cell transplant (PBSCT) works in treating patients with hematologic malignancies. Giving chemotherapy drugs such as fludarabine phosphate and melphalan, and low-dose TBI before a donor PBSCT helps stop the growth of cancer and abnormal cells and helps stop the patient's immune system from rejecting the donor's stem cells. When the healthy stem cells from the donor are infused into the patient they may help the patient's bone marrow make stem cells, red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets. Sometimes the transplanted cell from a donor can make an immune response against the body's normal cells. Giving tacrolimus, mycophenolate mofetil (MMF), and methotrexate after transplant may stop this from happening
