Study Summary

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as hydroxychloroquine, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Bortezomib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving hydroxychloroquine together with bortezomib may kill more cancer cells. PURPOSE: This phase I/II trial is studying the side effects and best dose of hydroxychloroquine when given together with bortezomib and to see how well it works in treating patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma.
