Leukemia, Multiple Myeloma, Myelodysplastic Syndrome
About this trial
This is an interventional treatment trial for Leukemia focused on measuring LUPRON DEPOT, PALIFERMIN, 12-077
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:
Treatment Portion:
- AML in 1st remission - for patients whose AML does not have "good risk" cytogenetic features (i.e. t (8;21), t(15;17), inv 16 without c-kit mutations).
- Acute leukemias of ambiguous lineage in ≥ 1st remission
- Secondary AML in remission
- AML in ≥ 2nd remission
- ALL in 1st remission with clinical or molecular features indicating a high risk for relapse; or ALL ≥ 2nd remission
- CML failing to respond to or not tolerating imatinib, dasatinib or nilotinib in first chronic phase of disease; CML in accelerated phase, second chronic phase, or in CR after accelerated phase or blast crisis.
- Non-Hodgkins lymphoma with chemo responsive disease in any of the following categories:
intermediate or high grade lymphomas who have failed to achieve a first CR or have relapsed following a 1st remission who are not candidates for autologous transplants.
b.ii. any NHL in remission which is considered not curable with chemotherapy alone and not eligible/appropriate for autologous transplant.
- Myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS): RA/RCMD with high risk cytogenetic features or transfusion dependence, RAEB-1 and RAEB-2
- Chronic myelomonocytic leukemia: CMML-1 and CMML-2.
- Patient's age is ≥18 or ≤60 years old
- Patients must have a Karnofsky (adult) or Lansky (pediatric) Performance Status ≥ 70%
- Patients must have adequate organ function measured by:
Cardiac: asymptomatic or if symptomatic then LVEF at rest must be > 50% and must improve with exercise.
- Pulmonary: asymptomatic or if symptomatic, DLCO > 60% of predicted (corrected for hemoglobin)
- Hepatic: < 3xULN ALT and < 1.5 total serum bilirubin, unless there is congenital benign hyperbilirubinemia
- Renal: serum creatinine < 1.2 mg/dL or if serum creatinine is outside the normal range, the CrCl > 50 ml/min (measured or calculated/estimated)
- Patients have a plan to receive a CD34-selected peripheral blood stem cell transplant with TBI-based conditioning.
Exclusion Criteria:
- Active extramedullary disease
- Active and uncontrolled infection at time of transplantation
- Patients who have undergone a prior allogeneic or autologous stem cell transplant within the previous six months.
- Pregnant or breast feeding
- HIV infection
- Patient is felt to not be a candidate for TBI by the BMT service
Donor Inclusion Criteria:
- Donor must be willing and able to undergo PBSC collection.

Arms of the Study
Arm 1
Arm 2
Experimental
Experimental
palifermin with Lupron
palifermin with Degarelix
All patients undergo total body irradiation (TBI) on days -9 to -6 & receive thiotepa intravenously (IV) over 2-4 hours on days -5 to -4, cyclophosphamide IV over 30-60 minutes on days -3 to -2, & anti-thymocyte globulin infused over 12 hours on days -3 to -2 Pts undergo T-cell depleted allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant on day 0. Pts will receive a three month depot dose of Lupron 3-6 weeks prior to the start date of the pre-transplant conditioning regimen. Pts will receive palifermin at 60mcg/kg/day IV on three consecutive days, 24 hours apart with the last dose administered no less than 24 & no more than 48 hours prior to the start of cytoreduction. Pts will receive three additional daily doses of palifermin the first approximately 6 hours after the stem cell infusion on day 0, followed by two daily doses given at 24 hour intervals on d+1 & d+2. Pts will receive a further 3-month depot injection of Lupron approximately 3 months (+/- one week) post the first dose.
Participants on the degarelix arm will receive a loading dose of degarelix 240 mcg subcutaneous 4-14 days before the start of pre-transplant conditioning. All participants will receive palifermin at 60mcg/kg/day IV on three consecutive days, 24 hours apart with the last dose administered no less than 24 and no more than 48 hours prior to the start of cytoreduction.
