Brief Summary: Background

The mainstay of therapy for newly diagnosed multiple myeloma patients remains systemic chemotherapy Although partial remissions of up to 60 are obtained with conventional regimens multiple myeloma is essentially an incurable disease with a median survival of approximately 30 months

Allogeneic stem cell transplantation SCT results in a high percentage of complete remissions but it can be associated with significant treatment-related mortality which has been primarily attributed to conventional myeloablative transplant regimens

Recent clinical studies have shown that highly immunosuppressive yet non-myeloablative doses of fludarabine-based chemotherapy can result in alloengraftment Even with a reduction in treatment related mortality success with allogeneic SCT is limited by a significant risk of relapse

Donor immunization with myeloma Id in the setting of a non-myeloablative allogeneic SCT may represent a novel strategy for the treatment of multiple myeloma

Objectives

Primary Objectives

To induce cellular and humoral immunity in allogeneic stem cell donors and recipients against the unique idiotype expressed by the recipients myeloma

To determine whether antigen-specific immunity induced in the stem cell donor can be passively transferred to the allogeneic SCT recipient in the setting of a non-myeloablative conditioning regimen

Secondary Objectives

To evaluate the effect of the Fludarabine-etoposide doxorubicin vincristine prednisone cyclophosphamide EPOCH regimen on host T cell depletion and myeloid depletion prior to allogeneic SCT

To determine the efficacy of a novel conventional chemotherapy regimen Fludarabine-EPOCH in the setting multiple myeloma

To determine the treatment-related morbidity and mortality of allogeneic stem cell transplantation using a non-myeloablative conditioning regimen in multiple myeloma

To determine if the re-vaccination of allogeneic stem cell donors with the unique idiotype expressed by the recipients myeloma will enhance cellular and humoral immunity to patient specific-idiotype prior to lymphocyte donation for the treatment of patients with recurrent or progressive disease after transplantation

Eligibility

Patients 18-75 years of age with Immunoglobulin G IgG or Immunoglobulin A IgA multiple myeloma

Patients must have achieved at least a partial remission following initial conventional chemotherapy regimen or after autologous stem cell transplantation

Consenting first degree relative matched at 66 or 56 human leukocyte antigen HLA antigens

Design

Phase 2 trial using a non-myeloablative conditioning regimen to reduce treatment-related toxicity

Recipient will undergo a plasmapheresis to obtain starting material for the isolation of idiotype

protein Donors would be immunized with an Id vaccine prepared from the patient

Prior to transplantation patients would receive a conventional chemotherapy regimen which contains agents active in myeloma and is T cell depleting The allogeneic SCT would be performed with a conditioning regimen consisting of cyclophosphamide and fludarabine The stem cell source would be blood mobilized with filgrastim Recipients will be immunized with the Id vaccine following transplantation
