Eligibility Criteria

Ages Eligible for Study: 18 Years to 60 Years
Sexes Eligible for Study: ALL
Accepts Healthy Volunteers: No
Inclusion Criteria:
  1. a) Multiple myeloma which is responsive to therapy. Eligible patients may have early or relapsed disease.

  4. e) Patients must have a Karnofsky performance status \> 70%. f) DLCO \>= 60% predicted. g) ALT and AST must be \< 2X normal. Total bilirubin less than 2 mg/dl. h) Serum creatinine \< 2.0 or 24-hour creatinine clearance \>= 50 ml/min. i) Patients must be HIV negative. j) Pregnant or lactating women will not be eligible to participate. k) Patients must provide signed, informed consent.
Exclusion Criteria:
  1. a) Severe psychological or medical illness b) Patients who have undergone prior allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation will not be eligible for this study.
  2. c) Patients who have an HLA-identical sibling donor will be excluded
