Brief Summary
STR (Skeletal Targeted Radiotherapy, 166Ho-DOTMP) is an investigational radiopharmaceutical that delivers radiation directly to cancer cells in the bone and bone marrow. Conventional methods of delive...
Detailed Description
PRIMARY OBJECTIVE: 1.To determine the efficacy of STR (166Ho-DOTMP). The primary endpoint of this study is to compare the CR rate at 6 months post-transplant (in the absence of further therapy) in su...

- Adequate cardiac function, defined as left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) of \> or = 45%, with no evidence of cardiac amyloidosis.
- Adequate liver function, defined as serum total bilirubin \< or = 2x institutional laboratory upper limit of normal and ALT/SGPT \< or = 3x institutional laboratory upper limit of normal.
- Adequate renal function, defined as 24 hour measured creatinine clearance of \> or = 50 mL/min/1.73 m2 BSA and serum creatinine \< or = 1.8 mg/dL.
