Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| The primary outcome is response rate. The included patients will be analysed with analysis of the m-protein at entry, after bortezomib cycle 2, 4, 6, 8 and before administration of DLI or before cycle 4,6,8 if no more DLI is given. After each DLI before administration of bortezomib cycle 3, 5, 7 and in follow up every 2 months. Bone marrow examination will be done on indication, for example confirmation of CR. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Secondary outcomes are evaluated at the same time points as the primary outcome. Blood samples for experimental mmunology are taken before first gift bortezomib in cycle 1, before first DLI, before first gift bortezomib cycle 3, before DLI nr 2, before first gift bortezomib cycle 5, before DLI nr 3, before first gift bortezomib cycle 7 and by stopping treatment and/or by occurring GvHD. | — |
