Trial Outcomes & Findings for Melphalan and Autologous Stem Cell Transplant Followed By Bortezomib and Dexamethasone in Treating Patients With Previously Untreated Systemic Amyloidosis (NCT NCT00458822)

NCT ID: NCT00458822

Last Updated: 2016-08-10

Results Overview

patients will be assessed for hematologic response (the response of the clonal plasma cell disease). If the plasma cell disease persists, then they will receive 6 cycles of adjuvant therapy with bortezomib and dexamethasone; patients with peripheral neuropathy will receive dexamethasone alone because of the risk of neuropathy associated with bortezomib. Symptomatic organ involvement with amyloid as defined below. Patients must have symptomatic involvement of no more than 2 of the following 4 visceral organ-systems: kidneys, liver/GI, peripheral/autonomic nervous system, and heart.
