A Randomized Trial to Compare Busulfan + Melphalan 140 mg/m2 With Melphalan 200 mg/m2 as Preparative Regimen for Autologous Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation for Multiple Myeloma

M.D. Anderson Cancer Center·interventional·Posted Aug 10, 2011·Updated Apr 21, 2020

In Brief

A Phase 3 clinical trial evaluating Busulfan, Melphalan, and 4 other interventions for Myeloma. Completed, enrolled 205 participants across 1 site.

Detailed Summary

The goal of this clinical research study is to compare Busulfex (busulfan) with or without Alkeran (melphalan) to learn which study therapy may be better at helping to control MM in patients who will receive an autologous stem cell transplant. The safety of this combination therapy will also be studied. Melphalan and busulfan are designed to damage the DNA (genetic material) of cells, which may cause cancer cells to die.
