Brief Summary: RATIONALE Interferon alfa may interfere with the growth of cancer cells Interleukin-6 may stimulate the white blood cells to kill cancer cells Giving interferon alfa together with interleukin-6 may kill more cancer cells

PURPOSE This clinical trial is studying the side effects and how well giving interferon alfa together with interleukin-6 works in treating patients with recurrent multiple myeloma
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES

Determine the response rate in patients with recurrent multiple myeloma treated with recombinant interferon alfa and recombinant interleukin-6
Determine the safety and optimal dose of this regimen in these patients
Determine the toxicity of this regimen in these patients
Determine the impact of this regimen on clonogenic growth of myeloma cells in serial in vitro assays

OUTLINE This is a pilot study

Patients receive recombinant interferon alfa subcutaneously SC once daily Beginning 1 month later patients also receive recombinant interleukin-6 SC once daily Treatment continues for up to 6 months in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity

PROJECTED ACCRUAL A total of 27 patients will be accrued for this study
