Trial Information

Allogeneic Bone Marrow Transplantation for Patients With Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia in the Chronic Phase or Multiple Myeloma


OBJECTIVES:

- Determine the efficacy of allogeneic bone marrow transplantation (BMT) following
high-dose cyclophosphamide and total body irradiation in patients with multiple
myeloma, agnogenic myeloid metaplasia, or chronic myelogenous leukemia in first or
second chronic phase.

- Determine the efficacy of BMT following busulfan and cyclophosphamide in these
patients.

- Determine the toxic effects of these preparative regimens in these patients.

OUTLINE: Patients are stratified by remission (first vs second vs third).

Patients who have not undergone prior radiotherapy receive cyclophosphamide IV on days -6
and -5 and then undergo total body irradiation twice a day on days -4 to -1. Allogeneic bone
marrow is infused on day 0.

Patients who have undergone prior radiotherapy receive oral busulfan every 6 hours on days
-7 to -4 or -6 to -3 and cyclophosphamide IV over 2 hours on days -3 and -2. Allogeneic bone
marrow is infused on day 0.

Patients are followed at days 30 and 90, at 6 months, and then annually thereafter.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 20-30 patients will be accrued for this study within 2 years.
