Busulfan, Cyclophosphamide, and Autologous Stem Cell Transplant in Treating Patients With Multiple Myeloma

Study:

A Study of Outcomes and Toxicity of Busulfex as Part of a High Dose Chemotherapy Preparative Regimen in Autologous Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation for Patients With Plasma Cell Myeloma

Rationale:

Giving high-dose chemotherapy before an autologous stem cell transplant stops the growth of cancer cells by stopping them from dividing or killing them. An autologous stem cell transplant may be able to replace the blood-forming cells that were destroyed by the chemotherapy.

Purpose:

This phase II trial is studying how well giving busulfan together with cyclophosphamide followed by an autologous stem cell transplant works in treating patients with multiple myeloma.
