Summary

High-dose chemotherapy with autologous stem cell support is the current standard procedure in the first-line treatment in younger patients with myeloma fit for intensive treatment. Current practice in Switzerland for stem cell mobilization is the combination of chemotherapy and G-CSF stimulation in myeloma patients fit for high-dose chemotherapy with melphalan and autologous stem cell transplant. In this trial the intravenous application of Plerixafor is being investigated in respect of the capability of the mobilization of stem cells from the bone marrow into the peripheral blood. In contrast to the twice daily application of G-CSF (eg. Neupogen) for several days, Plerixafor has to be injected just one-time.

Conditions

Interventions

DRUG

Vinorelbine, G-CSF, & Plerixafor

Patients 1-10 receive 35 mg/m2 vinorelbine i.v. on day 1, G-CSF divided in two daily doses from day 4 until collection of stem cells, and plerixafor as an i.v. application on day 8, at 08:00 AM, in the dose of 240 microg/kg b.w. Stem cell collection is initiated 4 hours later (at 12:00 PM) at day 8, if at least 20 X 103 of CD34+ cells / ml peripheral blood are detected.

DRUG

Vinorelbine and Plerixafor

Patients 11-20 receive 35 mg/m2 vinorelbine i.v. on day 1 and plerixafor as an i.v. application on day 8, at 08:00 AM, in the dose of 240 microg/kg b.w. No G-CSF will be administered. Stem cell collection is initiated 4 hours later (at 12:00 PM) at day 8, if at least 20 X 103 of CD34+ cells / ml peripheral blood are detected.

DRUG

G-CSF and Plerixafor

Patients 21-30 receive G-CSF divided in two daily doses from day 4 until collection of stem cells, and plerixafor as an i.v. application on day 8, at 08:00 AM, in the dose of 240 microg/kg b.w. No chemotherapy with vinorelbine will be gine on day 1. Stem cell collection is initiated 4 hours later (at 12:00 PM) at day 8, if at least 20 X 103 of CD34+ cells / ml peripheral blood are detected.

DRUG

Vinorelbine & Plerixafor on day when CD34 count is at least 15'000 CD34+ cells/ml of peripheral blood

Patients 31-40 receive 35 mg/m2 vinorelbine i.v. on day 1 and plerixafor as an i.v. application at 08:00 AM, on the first day on which the CD34 count has risen to at least 15'000 CD34+ cells/ml of peripheral blood. Stem cell collection is initiated 4 hours later (at 12:00 PM) on this day. No G-CSF will be administered.
