To evaluate the toxicity and tolerability of this tandem autologous/allogeneic transplant approach for patients with advanced stage multiple myeloma.

Stanford is currently not accepting patients for this trial.

Intervention(s):

  • drug: cyclophosphamide

  • drug: cyclosporine
  • procedure: Autologous peripheral blood stem cells (auto-PBSC) transplantation
  • procedure: Allogeneic peripheral blood stem cells (allo-PBSC) transplantation
  • drug: Filgrastim
  • radiation: Total lymphoid irradiation
  • biological: Rabbit anti-thymocyte globulin
  • drug: Mycophenolate Mofetil 250mg
  • drug: Solumedrol
  • drug: Diphenhydramine
  • drug: Acetaminophen
  • drug: Hydrocortisone
