Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
In this protocol, the investigators hypothesize that the combination of intravenous busulfan and melphalan with carfilzomib will be an effective preparative regimen with acceptable toxicity for participants with multiple myeloma who are candidates for autologous stem cell transplantation. To test this hypothesis, the investigators designed a phase I/II trial combining IV busulfan 130 mg/m2 plus melphalan 140 mg combined with escalating doses of carfilzomib ranging from 20 mg/m2 to 45 mg/m2. These results will be compared with the center's historical controls of participants treated with melphalan, busulfan and bortezomib.

Show eligibility criteria text
Inclusion Criteria: * Participants must be greater than or equal to 18 years of age. * Participants must have been diagnosed with multiple myeloma in a first or subsequent remission and have undergone a successful pre-transplant work up and are otherwise eligible for an autotransplant with a busulfan/melphalan preparative regimen at Loyola University Medical Center. * Participants may receive this preparative regimen if in first or subsequent remission. Participants may enter if they have received a prior autologous stem cell transplant and this therapy produced a remission that lasted greater than 18 months before progression of disease. Participants who have undergone prior allogeneic transplantation are excluded. * All participants must have responsive disease as defined by a Partial Response or greater to most recent conventional regimen. * Participants receiving prior carfilzomib will be eligible for inclusion provided they demonstrated responsive disease to this agent and either had a remission that lasted greater than 6 months after its discontinuance, or if in remission after a carfilzomib containing regimen administered to qualify for transplant. * Participants must have an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) Performance Status (PS) less than or equal to 2. * Acceptable heart function test. Exclusion Criteria: * Participants must not have below normal kidney function. * Participants must not have below normal liver function. * Participants must not have active bacterial, fungal, or viral infection. * Participants must not have severe lung function. * Participants must not have Grade 2 or greater peripheral neuropathy. * Participants must not have uncontrolled hypertension.
