Brief Summary: The study is designed as a Phase II, multicenter trial of vaccination with Dendritic cell/myeloma fusions with granulocyte macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) adjuvant plus lenalidomide maintenance therapy versus maintenance therapy alone or with GM-CSF following autologous transplant as part of upfront treatment of multiple myeloma (MM). It is hypothesized that the dendritic cell myeloma vaccine will result in improved response in patients with multiple myeloma after autologous HCT.
Detailed Description: The study is a three-arm, phase II randomized, open-labeled clinical trial that randomizes patients to vaccination with DC/myeloma fusions/GM-CSF plus lenalidomide maintenance therapy or lenalidomide maintenance therapy with or without GM-CSF following autologous transplant as part of upfront treatment for patients diagnosed with multiple myeloma. Patients are randomized at a day 60 +/- 7 days post transplant and will begin maintenance lenalidomide between day 90 and 100. The primary objective of this randomized trial is to compare the proportion of patients alive and in complete response (defined as CR or sCR) at one year post transplant between patients receiving DC/myeloma vaccine/GM-CSF with lenalidomide maintenance therapy to those receiving lenalidomide maintenance therapy with or without GM-CSF.

Open or close this module Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures:
1. Complete Response
[ Time Frame: 1 year ]

The primary objective of this randomized trial is to compare the proportion of patients alive and in complete response (CR or sCR) at one year post transplant between patients receiving DC/myeloma vaccine/GM-CSF with lenalidomide maintenance therapy to those receiving lenalidomide maintenance therapy with or without GM-CSF.
Secondary Outcome Measures:
1. Response to treatment
[ Time Frame: 6 months, 1 year, and 2 years ]

The trial will assess the rates of VGPR or better (VGPR, nCR, CR and sCR) responses) according to the International Uniform Response Criteria. A secondary pairwise analysis will compare the CR rates at 1 year between the vaccine arm, lenalidomide/GM-CSF arm and lenalidomide alone arm.
2. Myeloma Progression
[ Time Frame: 6 months, 1 year, and 2 years ]

The cumulative incidence of myeloma progression will be compared between vaccine and no-vaccine arms combined. A secondary pairwise analysis will compare the cumulative incidence of myeloma progression between the vaccine arm, lenalidomide/GM-CSF arm and lenalidomide alone arm.
3. Minimal Residual Disease (MRD) Assessment
[ Time Frame: 6 months, 1 year, and 2 years ]

MRD is defined as the presence of malignant plasma cells detected by multicolor flow cytometry among patients who are in complete remission. The proportion of patients who are MRD negative at one year will be compared between vaccine and no-vaccine arms combined. A secondary pairwise analysis will be conducted comparing the proportion of patients who are MRD negative at one year between the vaccine arm, lenalidomide/GM-CSF arm and lenalidomide alone arm.
4. Treatment-related Mortality (TRM)
[ Time Frame: 2 years ]

TRM is defined as death occurring in a patient from causes other than disease relapse or progression. TRM from time of randomization will be compared between vaccine and no-vaccine arms combined. A secondary pairwise analysis will compare TRM between the vaccine arm, lenalidomide/GM-CSF arm and lenalidomide alone arm.
5. Incidence of Toxicities
[ Time Frame: 2 years ]

The proportion of patients developing Grade ≥ 3 toxicity will be compared between the vaccine and no-vaccine arms combined until disease progression or end of follow up. A secondary pairwise analysis will compare the incidence of toxicities between the vaccine arm, lenalidomide/GM-CSF arm and lenalidomide alone arm.
6. Incidence of Infections
[ Time Frame: 2years ]

The incidence of definite and probable viral, fungal and bacterial infections will be tabulated for each patient. The proportion of patients in each treatment arm with these infections will be compared from randomization until disease progression or end of follow up.
7. Progression-free survival
[ Time Frame: 2 years ]

Patients are considered a failure of this endpoint if they die or suffer from disease progression. The time to this event is the time from randomization to progression, death, initiation of non-protocol anti myeloma therapy, loss to follow up or end of study whichever comes first and it will be compared between the vaccine and no-vaccine arms combinedfrom time of randomization. A secondary pairwise analysis will compare progression-free survival between the vaccine arm, lenalidomide/GM-CSF arm and lenalidomide alone arm.
8. Overall Survival
[ Time Frame: 2 years ]

Patients are considered a failure of this endpoint if they die. The time to this event is the time from randomization to death, loss to follow-up or the end of the study, whichever comes first. Patients alive at the time of last observation are considered censored. Overall survival will be compared between the vaccine and no-vaccine arms combined from time of randomization. A secondary pairwise analysis will compare overall survival between the vaccine arm, lenalidomide/GM-CSF arm and lenalidomide alone arm.
