Brief Summary: The primary purpose of this study is to explore the efficacy of three different dose schedules of palonosetron for the prevention of emesis over a 7-day study interval in multiple myeloma patients.
Detailed Description: A number of multiple-day chemotherapy regimens involving moderately or highly emetogenic agents are used for the treatment of cancers. Further, patients undergoing high-dose conditioning regimens in combination with bone marrow or stem cell transplants remain poorly controlled in terms of CINV. Patients treated with these regimens are at risk for developing CINV with each treatment as well as in the delayed setting.

Palonosetron to date, has been studied against single-day moderately and highly emetogenic chemotherapy regimens. It is of interest, therefore, to explore the safety and efficacy of palonosetron when administered during a multiple-day chemotherapy regimen. For this purpose, a population receiving melphalan (100 mg/m\^2) as a conditioning regimen before stem cell transplant for the treatment of multiple myeloma was selected.
