Multiple Myeloma Clinical Trial
Lenalidomide, Dexamethasone and MEDI-551 in Untreated Multiple Myeloma
Summary
This research study is being done to see if combining the investigational chemotherapy drug, MEDI-551 with the known anti-myeloma drugs, Lenalidomide and Dexamethasone will reduce your myeloma cancer stem cells.
Full Description
To explore the effect of Lenalidomide, dexamethasone and Medi-551 on multiple myeloma cancer stem cells (CSCs). Myeloma CSCs will be assessed by a clonogenic assay from the bone marrow and flow cytometry from peripheral blood.

Previous medical history or evidence of an intercurrent illness that may, in the opinion of the investigator, compromise the safety of the patient in the study.
