Patient Population: Patients with active myeloma (Stage II/III) that have completed induction therapy and are eligible for an autologous stem cell transplant. Number of Patients: Will treat a total of 32 evaluable patients in a 1:1 randomization of aMILs vs aMILs plus vaccine. An evaluable patient is defined as one which has received the activated MILs and is at least 6 months post-transplant. Study Objectives: Disease response as determined by the Blade' criteria will be the primary endpoint of the trial at one year. Additional study endpoints include progression free survival, parameters of T cell reconstitution, anti-tumor immune responses as well as the effect on osteoclastogenesis and clonogenic myeloma precursor cells.

eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria: * Durie-Salmon Stage II or III multiple myeloma * Newly diagnosed either prior to receiving treatment or having completed induction therapy * Relapsed myeloma not previously transplanted within the past 5 years * Measurable serum and/or urine M-protein from prior to induction therapy documented and available.

  1. description
    Cyclophosphamide and filgrastim will be given to mobilize peripheral blood stem cells. Leukapheresis will be performed to collect peripheral blood from which activated marrow infiltrating lymphocytes will be produced. A melphalan conditioning regimen will be used prior to autologous stem cell transplant, and the MILs product will be administered on Days 3 and 4.
