Always consult your dr. about Phase III Randomized Study of Melphalan With or Without Holmium Ho 166 DOTMP Followed By Autologous Peripheral Blood Stem Cell Transplantation in Patients With Multiple Myeloma conditions. Clinical Trials Search.org is a site dedicated to listing clinical research studies in human subjects. Phase III Randomized Study of Melphalan With or Without Holmium Ho 166 DOTMP Followed By Autologous Peripheral Blood Stem Cell Transplantation in Patients With Multiple Myeloma Clinical research trials and Phase III Randomized Study of Melphalan With or Without Holmium Ho 166 DOTMP Followed By Autologous Peripheral Blood Stem Cell Transplantation in Patients With Multiple Myeloma health trials happen in many of localities throughout the U.S.. A clinical trial or clinical study is a research project with human volunteer subjects. Clinical drug trials and pharmaceutical clinical trials typically measure the effectualness of new drugs. The function of the studies / projects is to resolve particular human medical questions. Clinical trials are a popular manner for mDs, government agencies, and private sector corporations to discover remedies for all varieties of circumstances, like Phase III Randomized Study of Melphalan With or Without Holmium Ho 166 DOTMP Followed By Autologous Peripheral Blood Stem Cell Transplantation in Patients With Multiple Myeloma. Phase III Randomized Study of Melphalan With or Without Holmium Ho 166 DOTMP Followed By Autologous Peripheral Blood Stem Cell Transplantation in Patients With Multiple Myeloma Clinical Trials and other clinical trials allow volunteers to obtain healthcare treatment options before they are available to the masses. Some times the participants undergo professional assistance for free of charge, and occasionally they are paid for their time. Sometimes there is a cost for a Phase III Randomized Study of Melphalan With or Without Holmium Ho 166 DOTMP Followed By Autologous Peripheral Blood Stem Cell Transplantation in Patients With Multiple Myeloma clinical trial. Human subjects often get the best healthcare available for their Phase III Randomized Study of Melphalan With or Without Holmium Ho 166 DOTMP Followed By Autologous Peripheral Blood Stem Cell Transplantation in Patients With Multiple Myeloma condition. Dangers are a reality, however, and may include additional or frequent mD visits, healthcare dangers (potentially life-jeopardising), and/or the treatment being ineffectual. Trials are federally governed with rigorous guidelines to protect clinical trials patients.

Phase III Randomized Study of Melphalan With or Without Holmium Ho 166 DOTMP Followed By Autologous Peripheral Blood Stem Cell Transplantation in Patients With Multiple Myeloma
For Condition: stage 2 multiple myeloma,stage 1 multiple myeloma,stage 3 multiple myeloma
Status: No longer recruiting
Sponsor(s): National Cancer Institute (NCI) , Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center
Synopsis: Patient Abstract available in the near future.
Details: OBJECTIVES: I. Compare the efficacy of melphalan with or without holmium Ho 166 DOTMP followed by autologous peripheral blood stem cell transplantation in patients with multiple myeloma. II. Compare the response rate and overall survival of these patients treated with these regimens. III. Compare the hematologic recovery rate and time to granulocyte engraftment of these patients treated with these regimens. IV. Compare the toxicity of these regimens in this patient population. PROTOCOL OUTLINE: This is a randomized, open label, multicenter study. Patients are stratified according to their beta 2 microglobulin (B2M) test at initial diagnosis (B2M no greater than 4 mg/L vs B2M greater than 4 mg/L vs unknown B2M). Patients are randomized to one of two treatment arms. Prior to stratification and randomization, patients receive a diagnostic dose of holmium Ho 166 DOTMP within days -31 to -10. Patients with adequate skeletal uptake of the diagnostic dose are randomized for therapy. Arm I: Patients receive holmium Ho 166 DOTMP IV over no more than 10 minutes within days -10 to -7 (at least 1 week and no more than 3 weeks after the diagnostic dose), melphalan IV over 20-30 minutes within days -3 to -1 (at least 24 hours prior to autologous peripheral blood stem cell (PBSC) transplantation), and autologous PBSC transplantation on day 0. Arm II: Patients receive melphalan and autologous PBSC transplantation as in arm I. Following transplantation, patients receive filgrastim (G-CSF) daily until blood counts recover. Patients are followed at 1 year, every 6 months for 3 years, and then annually thereafter. PROJECTED ACCRUAL: Approximately 300 patients (150 per treatment arm) will be accrued for this study within 9 months.
