PHASE1
Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of fluphenazine in patients with advanced multiple myeloma. The study will also describe the efficacy of this drug.
Detailed Description
This is a multicenter, dose-escalating, Phase 1b trial in patients with relapsed or relapsed-and-refractory multiple myeloma. Patients will be dosed on Days 1 and 8 of each 21 day cycle. This study w...

- Patient must have substantially recovered from clinically significant toxicities from prior therapies for multiple myeloma
- Fertile men and women must agree to use a medically effective contraception method throughout the treatment period. Premenopausal women of reproductive capacity and women less than 24 months post menopause must have a negative serum pregnancy test documented prior to study entry
Exclusion
- Patients who never achieved at least minor response (MR) to at least one prior line of therapy
