Study of Combination Thalidomide Plus Glucocorticoid Therapy Versus Glucocorticoid Therapy Alone as Induction Therapy for Previously Untreated Subjects With Multiple Myeloma
A Multicenter Parallel-Group, Placebo Controlled, Randomized, Double-Blind Study of Combination Thalidomide Plus Glucocorticoid Therapy Versus Glucocorticoid Therapy Alone as Induction Therapy for Previously Untreated Subjects With Multiple Myeloma

Randomized subjects will receive study drug, either thalidomide plus high-dose dexamethasone or placebo identical in appearance to thalidomide plus high-dose dexamethasone, in 4-week cycles. Subjects will remain on study drug until they experience disease progression or until the subject discontinues for any other reason. Subjects will have visits every cycle and all subjects will be followed for survival even after discontinuation from study drug.
