About this trial
The purpose of this study is to determine the feasibility, safety, and efficacy of dendritic cell (DC) vaccines in the treatment of multiple myeloma (MM) or plasmacytoma based on immune-modified DC vaccines (DCvac). This approach is aimed to achieve prolonged maintenance of remission in multiple myeloma or plasmacytoma patients.
