Patients are eligible 8 weeks from the day of stem cell infusion for autologous stem
cell transplant, if hematological and all other eligibility criteria are met.

- Performance status: ECOG 0-2.

- Patients must be free of significant functional deficits in major organs, but the
following eligibility criteria may be modified in individual cases.

1. Heart: a shortening fraction ≥ 28%

2. Liver: total bilirubin < 2 × upper limit of normal; ALT < 3 × upper limit of
normal.

Type of Study:

Interventional

Study Design:

Endpoint Classification: Efficacy Study, Intervention Model: Single Group Assignment, Masking: Open Label, Primary Purpose: Treatment

Outcome Measure:

To evaluate response rate (more than stable disease) of combination chemotherapy

Outcome Description:

- Response Criteria : WHO-based "Macdonald criteria", based on MRI Complete Response : disappearance of all enhancing tumor Partial Remission : more than 50 percentage decrease in the tumor measurement compared with the baseline scan Stable Disease : includes changes that do not meet criteria for CR, PR, or progressive disease (PD) Progressive Disease : more than 25 percentage increase in tumor measurement compared with the lesion size that defines the nadir, or smallest measurement, in the serial studies

Outcome Time Frame:

every 3 months

Safety Issue:

No
