Summary
The aim of this multi-site randomized control trial will be is to assess the impact Systematic lighting on circadian rhythm entrainment, Inflammation, Neutropenic Fever and Symptom Burden among Multiple Myeloma Patients undergoing Autologous Stem Cell Transplantation. To achieve this aim, 200 multiple myeloma patients will receive one of two different light-treatments that are designed to promote circadian rhythm alignment. While receiving these light treatments, participants' sleep efficiency, urine melatonin levels, blood inflammatory cytokine levels and symptoms will be assessed over a 2-month period.

Interventions
Participants will receive lighting with a spectrum of 300K, 500 lux to the eye level between 7:00am and 10:00am in the morning, and hospital lighting (\<100lux) during the afternoon between 10:00am and 6:00pm. In the evening this group of participants will receive lighting with a spectrum of 3000K, \<50lux at eye light level between 6:00PM and bedtime.
Participants will receive lower lighting levels in the morning (lighting with A spectrum of 300k, \<50lux to the eye level between 7:00am and 10:00am) and the same lighting levels throughout the rest of the day.
