Study Summary

RATIONALE: Bortezomib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Thalidomide may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking blood flow to the cancer. Giving bortezomib together with thalidomide may kill more cancer cells. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well giving bortezomib together with thalidomide works in treating patients with newly diagnosed stage II or stage III multiple myeloma.

Primary Outcome

Clinical evaluations of disease response were determined with each cycle. Bone marrow biopsies were done at baseline and at study termination. Clinical responses were defined by the International Myeloma Working Group criteria: Stringent Complete Response (SCR), CR and normal free light chain ratio and no clonal cells in bone marrow; Complete Response (CR), Negative serum and urine on immunofixation, disappearance of any soft tissue plasmacytomas and ≤ 5% plasma cells in bone marrow; Very Good P
