Official Title: A Phase I Study of Bendamustine and Melphalan Conditioning and Autologous Stem Cell Transplantation for Treatment of Multiple Myeloma and Relapsed/Refractory B-cell Lymphoma in Elderly Patients
Study ID: NCT03352765
Brief Summary: This study is testing a combination of chemo-immuno therapy called RBM. RBM consists of combination of drugs: rituximab, bendamustine, and melphalan followed by reinfusion of the participants own stem cells which is called autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT).
