Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
RATIONALE: Giving low doses of chemotherapy before a donor stem cell transplant helps stop the growth of cancer cells. It also stops the patient's immune system from rejecting the donor's stem cells. The donated stem cells may replace the patient's immune cells and help destroy any remaining cancer cells (graft-versus-tumor effect). PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying the side effects of giving fludarabine together with busulfan and antithymocyte globulin followed by donor stem cell transplant and to see how well it works in treating patients with multiple myeloma that has not responded to treatment.
