Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
This is an exploratory study to determine the prevalence of fluoroquinolone resistance in patients receiving dose-intense melphalan with autologous peripheral blood stem cell (PBSC) transplantation in the treatment of multiple myeloma (MM). These data may be used in subsequent studies exploring the use of prophylaxis in this patient population.
