Summary

The purpose of this Phase 2 randomized study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of treatment with a regimen of VELCADE, dexamethasone, and thalidomide (VDT) or VELCADE, dexamethasone, thalidomide, and cyclophosphamide (VDTC) in subjects with newly diagnosed symptomatic multiple myeloma who have received no prior treatment and are candidates to receive high-dose therapy and autologous bone marrow/stem cell transplantation.

Conditions

• Multiple Myeloma

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
DRUG	bortezomib, dexamethasone, and thalidomide	VELCADE (bortezomib) twice weekly for 4 cycles (4 doses per cycle), prior to high-dose chemotherapy (HDT) and stem cell transplantation(SCT). Subjects will receive VELCADE 1.3 mg/m2 as an intravenous (i.v.) bolus injection on Days 1,4,8, and 11, followed by a 10 day rest period (Days 12 to 21) Dexamethasone 40 mg/day will be given by mouth (p.o.) on Days 1-4 and Days 9-12 in each of 4 cycles. Thalidomide will be given by mouth (p.o.)every day, starting on Day 1 of Cycle 1 (e.g. the same day of the first dose of VELCADE) and continuing until Day 21 of Cycle 4 at a dose of 100 mg/day (bedtime).

Cyclophosphamide will be given as an intravenous (i.v.) dose of 400 mg/m2 on Day 1 and Day 8 of each 3-week cycle, for a total of 4 cycles.
