Inclusion Criteria: * Patients with multiple myeloma who have received at least 1 prior therapy and who have either responded and later had progressive disease or have progressed during their first therapy (primary refractory) are eligible for the study * Patients who may have received prior doxorubicin but not more than a cumulative dose of 240 milligram per meter square (mg/m\^2) doxorubicin, DOXIL, or the equivalent amount of another anthracycline (i.e., 1 mg doxorubicin = 1 mg DOXIL/CAELYX = 1.8 mg epirubicin = 0.3 mg mitoxantrone = 0.25 mg idarubicin) * Must have normal cardiac function, as evidenced by a left LVEF within institutional normal limits. Exclusion Criteria: * History of treatment with VELCADE or progressive disease while receiving an anthracycline-containing regimen * No change in disease status during initial therapy * No treatment for malignancy within past 5 yrs (other than multiple myeloma) or progressive disease while receiving anthracycline-containing regimen * Non-secretory disease * Myocardial infarct within past 6 months * No major surgery in past 30 days.
