Brief Summary: To evaluate changes in coagulation (blood clotting) factors and platelet function in multiple myeloma participants undergoing VELCADE treatment for the first time.
Detailed Description: Cardiovascular complications during the treatment of patients with multiple myeloma are not uncommon, (10%) and the frequency clearly increases with the use of regimens containing thalidomide in combination with glucocorticosteroids or chemotherapy especially adriamycin. Even with prophylactic anticoagulation, DVT still occurs in 10% of such patients. The use of full anticoagulation raises considerable concern of bleeding especially during the post chemotherapy thrombocytopenic period. We observed no thromboembolic episodes when Velcade was added to thalidomide and adriamycin containing chemotherapy.

Therefore, we would like to investigate this protective antithrombotic effect of VELCADE in a malignancy associated with a hypercoagulable state in a group of 10 patients with Relapsed/Refractory Multiple Myeloma.
