Brief Summary:
RATIONALE: Biological therapies such as beta alethine use different ways to stimulate the immune system and stop cancer cells from growing.
PURPOSE: Phase I/II trial to study the effectiveness of beta alethine in treating patients who have myeloma.
PURPOSE: Phase I/II trial to study the effectiveness of beta alethine in treating patients who have myeloma.
Detailed Description:
OBJECTIVES:
* Determine the antitumor effects of low-dose beta alethine in patients with myeloma or progressive monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance.
* Determine the effects of this regimen on anemia, performance status, pain, and delayed-type hypersensitivity (immune response) in these patients.
* Determine the safety of this regimen in these patients.
OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study.
Patients receive beta alethine subcutaneously every 2 weeks for 6 doses. At day 85, patients may receive an additional 12-week course of therapy in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients with an apparent complete response receive additional courses.
Patients are followed for 2 weeks.
PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 13-37 patients will be accrued for this study.
