Brief Summary: RATIONALE Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die GM-CSF may make cancer cells more sensitive to the effects of chemotherapy Combining more than one drug with GM-CSF may kill more tumor cells

PURPOSE Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of combination chemotherapy consisting of cyclophosphamide plus vincristine following GM-CSF in treating patients with multiple myeloma that has not responded to previous treatment
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES I Determine the response rate of multiple myeloma patients when treated with cyclophosphamide and vincristine after cycling myeloma cells with sargramostim GM-CSF II Evaluate whether Labelling Index LI changes influenced by GM-CSF would predict a group of patients that will respond to this particular course specific design III Determine the toxicity of GM-CSF in these patients

OUTLINE Patients receive subcutaneous injections of sargramostim GM-CSF once a day for 5 days Two to 3 days later patients receive cyclophosphamide IV over 30-45 minutes on day 1 vincristine IV bolus on day 8 and oral prednisone 4 times a day on days 1-4 Patients also receive subcutaneous injections of GM-CSF starting on day 2 and continuing for 10 days or until neutrophil count is at least 1000mm3 Treatment continues every 3 weeks for a minimum of 6 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity Patients who achieve at least stable response receive GM-CSF 3 times a week for up to 2 years Patients are followed every 3-6 months

PROJECTED ACCRUAL A maximum of 30 patients will be accrued
