About
Multiple myeloma is a disease that resides primarily in the bone and has shown to be sensitive to radiation. Administration of a radiotherapy agent that targets the bone, such as Holmium-166-DOTMP, in conjunction with melphalan and an autologous stem cell transplant, may improve the patient's chance of responding to treatment. The purpose of this study is to determine the amount of Holmium-166-DOTMP that localizes in the bone and in normal organs, and to evaluate the safety and efficacy of Holmium-166-DOTMP in the treatment of patients with multiple myeloma.
Full description
The purpose of this study is to estimate the radiation absorbed dose to the bone marrow and kidneys based on whole-body gamma camera image data for comparison with that obtained using mathematical models based on whole body counting from a small gamma detection device called a thyroid probe; to obtain pharmacokinetic data following administration of 166Ho-DOTMP; and to evaluate safety and efficacy in patients who receive 25 Gy targeted therapy of 166Ho-DOTMP and 200 mg/m2 melphalan followed by autologous peripheral blood stem cell transplant (PBSCT).
