Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

  • Inclusion Criteria:
  • Histologically or cytologically confirmed multiple myeloma
  • Stage II or III disease according to Salmon-Durie staging criteria
  • Relapsed or refractory disease
  • Progressive disease
  • Measurable disease, defined by ≥ 1 of the following criteria:
  • Serum M protein ≥ 1.0 g/dL by serum protein electrophoresis
  • Free light chain measurement \> 200 mg/dL
  • Urinary M protein excretion ≥ 200 mg/24 hours
  • Must have received ≥ 2 prior therapies\* for multiple myeloma that meet the following criteria:
  • Antimyeloma therapeutic regimen consisting of ≥ 1 complete course of single-agent or combination-agent therapy, or a planned series of treatments (e.g., 3-4 courses of induction therapy followed by a stem cell harvest procedure followed by conditioning high-dose therapy supported by stem cell transplantation)
  • Antimyeloma regimen is discontinued because of the development of resistant disease or severe therapy-related toxicity
  • Individual antimyeloma regimen will be considered to have been discontinued when all agents of the regimen have been permanently stopped
  • A prior regimen will not be considered to have been discontinued for the modification of drug doses, or if less than all the agents of a combination regimen have been discontinued, or if the regimen has been halted temporarily for the development of a plateau phase of myeloma
  • Maintenance therapy will not be considered an additional regimen
  • If new agents are added to an existing regimen, presumably because of tumor resistance, the old regimen will be considered to have ended and a new regimen to have started
  • No evidence of central nervous system (CNS) disease, including primary brain tumor or brain metastasis
  • Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status (PS) 0-2 OR Karnofsky PS 60-100%

  • Absolute neutrophil count ≥ 1,500/mm\^3
  • Platelet count ≥ 75,000/mm\^3
  • Bilirubin ≤ 1.5 times upper limit of normal (ULN)
  • Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) ≤ 2.5 times ULN
  • Creatinine ≤ 2.0 mg/dL OR creatinine clearance ≥ 60 mL/min
  • No albuminuria only
  • Urine protein: creatinine ratio \< 1 OR 24-hour urine protein with an albumin level \< 500 mg
  • Not pregnant or nursing
  • Negative pregnancy test
  • Fertile patients must use effective contraception during and for ≥ 6 months after completion of study therapy
  • Exclusion criteria:
  • No known hypersensitivity to Chinese hamster ovary cell products or other recombinant human antibodies
  • No known history of allergic reactions attributed to compounds of similar chemical or biological composition to other agents used in the study
  • No serious or nonhealing wound, ulcer, or bone fracture
  • No significant traumatic injury within the past 28 days
  • No abdominal fistula, gastrointestinal perforation, or intra-abdominal abscess within the past 28 days
  • No clinically significant cardiovascular disease
  • No prothrombin time (PT) or international normalized ratio (INR) \> 1.5 (unless patient is on full-dose warfarin)
  • No evidence of bleeding diathesis or coagulopathy
  • No uncontrolled intercurrent illness that would limit compliance with study requirements, including ongoing or active infection
  • No psychiatric illness or social situations that would limit study compliance
  • No concurrent major surgery
  • No concurrent immunosuppressive agents (including steroids)
  • No other concurrent investigational agents
