Myeloablative haploidentical BMT

Arm Description

All participants except those with acute lymphoblastic leukemia and lymphoblastic lymphoma: Busulfan will be administered 1 mg/kg oral (or 0.8 mg/kg IV) four times per day for four days, followed by cyclophosphamide 50 mg/kg once per day for two days.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Engraftment as Measured by Donor Chimerism
Percentage of participants who achieved donor chimerism >=95%.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Non-relapse Mortality
Number of participants deceased for reasons other than disease relapse or progression.
Acute GVHD
Percentage of participants who experience grade II-IV or III-IV acute graft-versus-host-disease (GVHD) by Przepiorka criteria. The stages are defined as follows: Stage II: Rash on >50% of skin, bilirubin 2-3 mg/dL, or diarrhea 500-1000 mL/day Stage III: Bilirubin 3-15 mg/dL or diarrhea >1000 mL/day Stage IV: Generalized erythroderma with bullae or bilirubin >15 mg/dL This outcome was estimated using proportional subdistribution hazard regression model for competing risks (Fine and Gray 1999)
Chronic GVHD
Percentage of participants who experience chronic GVHD. Chronic GVHD is graded using NIH consensus criteria and Seattle criteria. This outcome was estimated using proportional subdistribution hazard regression model for competing risks (Fine and Gray 1999)
Survival
Percentage of participants alive (overall survival) and alive without disease relapse, progression, or diagnosis of myeloid malignancy (event-free survival). Estimated using Kaplan-Meier method.
Relapse
Percentage of participants who experienced disease progression or relapse. This outcome was estimated using proportional subdistribution hazard regression model for competing risks (Fine and Gray 1999)

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to see if giving high dose chemotherapy and total body irradiation before and repeating high dose chemotherapy after a bone marrow transplant could reduce the incidence of graft rejection and disease for patients with blood cancers
Detailed Description
Allogeneic blood or marrow transplantation (alloBMT), following either marrow-ablative or nonmyeloablative conditioning, is a potentially curative treatment for a variety of hematologic malignancies and non-malignant hematologic disorders. Of all the potential sources of allografts, transplantation of stem cells from a human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-matched sibling has generally produced the best overall outcomes, i.e. overall and progression-free survival. Unfortunately, only about a third of candidates for alloBMT have HLA-matched siblings. For patients who lack HLA-matched siblings, there are three alternative sources of stem cells for alloBMT: 1) volunteer unrelated donors; 2) umbilical cord blood; and 3) partially HLA-mismatched, or haploidentical, related donors. Since any patient shares exactly one HLA haplotype with each biological parent or child and half of siblings, an eligible haploidentical donor can be identified rapidly in nearly all cases. However, haploidentical BMT has been associated with significant risks of graft rejection and severe GVHD, which are manifestations of excessive alloreactivity by host and donor T cells, respectively. The risk of severe GVHD may be reduced in intensively conditioned recipients of grafts that have been rigorously depleted of mature T cells or selectively depleted of alloreactive T cells, but the risks of serious infection and death from prolonged immune compromise in these patients remains high. Cyclophosphamide(Cy) is a highly immunosuppressive antineoplastic agent that has an established role in conditioning for alloBMT. Typically, the drug is administered prior to transplantation to prevent graft rejection by suppressing the host immune system. However, pre-transplantation conditioning with Cy increases the risk of GVHD following allogeneic T cell infusion in mouse models. In contrast, administration of a properly timed, high dose of Cy after BMT inhibits both graft rejection and GVHD.
