plateau phase must have M-protein concentrations that are stable for at least 4 weeks
prior to registration.

2. Be at least 18 years of age.

3. Have monoclonal plasma cells in the marrow.

4. have M-protein greater than or equal to 1g/dL in the serum or 200 mg of monoclonal
light chain in a 24-hour urine protein electrophoresis.

5. Have laboratory data as specified below:

- AST and ALT < 2.5 x upper limit of normal (ULN)

- Alk phos < 5.0 x ULN

- direct bilirubin < 2 x ULN

- Creatinine < 3.0 x ULN

- ANC greater than or equal to 750 cells/mm3

- Platelets > 25,000/mm3

- Hemoglobin greater than or equal to 7.0g/dL

6. Have life expectancy of at least 3 months

7. Have ECOG performance status of 0, 1, or 2

8. Women and men of child bearing potential must agree to use effective barrier
