A Study to Evaluate Two Different Regimens of VELCADE in Combination With Dexamethasone, Thalidomide and Cyclophosphamide (VDT vs VDTC) in Newly Diagnosed Multiple Myeloma

Summary

The purpose of this Phase 2 randomized study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of treatment with a regimen of VELCADE, dexamethasone, and thalidomide (VDT) or VELCADE, dexamethasone, thalidomide, and cyclophosphamide (VDTC) in subjects with newly diagnosed symptomatic multiple myeloma who have received no prior treatment and are candidates to receive high-dose therapy and autologous bone marrow/stem cell transplantation.
