Pembrolizumab in Treating Patients With Intermediate or High-Risk Smoldering Multiple Myeloma

Summary

This pilot early phase I trial studies pembrolizumab in treating patients with slow growing (smoldering) multiple myeloma with intermediate or high-risk of spreading. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as pembrolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread.
