Summary

This study tested a combination of three drugs (thalidomide, bortezomib, and high-dose melphalan) given before a stem cell transplant in 29 people with advanced multiple myeloma who had already tried a similar transplant. The goal was to find the safest dose of thalidomide and see if the combo could improve response rates. While the approach aims to control the disease, ongoing management is still needed.
