I'd restrict the descriptor "multivariate (anything) regression" to
multiple responses.

Here you want multiple predictors: the official Stata offering
includes -mfp- and in addition there is a sibling spline family in
-mvrs- (SJ).

One difficulty with a local polynomial is quite how you report it,
except as a series of graphs and an estimated response for every
distinct observation.
