Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Incidence of adverse events
Toxicity will be graded according to the National Cancer Institute's-Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events version 5.0. Graft versus host disease (GVHD) specific toxicities will be defined per 1994 Keystone Consensus Criteria. Observed toxicities will be summarized in terms of type (organ affected or laboratory determination), severity, time of onset, duration, probable association with the study regimen and reversibility or outcome. This will include infectious disease related complications and autoimmune disease related complications. Cumulative incidence curves will be used for time to event variables with competing risks events such as acute GVHD or chronic GVHD. Point estimates and 90% confidence intervals will be used.
Ability to meet CD4+ T-cell depleted product release requirements (feasibility)
The feasibility of producing an infusion ready CD4+ T-cell-depleted hematopoietic product will be assessed by the ability to meet product release requirements. Product release requirements include the following: (1) CD34+ cells: Post-processing CD34+ cell target of 7.5-13.0 x 106 cells/kg of recipient body weight; (2) CD4+ T-cell depletion: >= 97% of CD4+ T-cells in the the hematopoietic cell product for manufacturing; (3) Sterility (e.g. endotoxin and gram staining). Descriptive statistics will be used to characterize feasibility.
Ability to meet minimum required cell dose (feasibility)
The feasibility of producing an infusion ready CD4+ T-cell-depleted hematopoietic product will be assessed by the ability to meet minimum required cell doses. This outcome will be evaluated using the following: (1) CD34+ collected (per day of apheresis); (2) CD34+ recovery: % CD34+ cells recovered from the CD34+ cell number in the product being manufactured (pre-CD4+ T cell depletion); (3) Cell dose: pooled and back up product; (4) Cell dose adequate given recipient's body weight plus the required pre-processed back-up set aside (yes/no); (5) Number (median, range) of apheresis; (6) % CD4+ T-cell depletion; (7) reason for not meeting product release requirements. Descriptive statistics will be used to characterize feasibility.

The first day of chronic GvHD onset at a certain grade will be used to calculate cumulative incidence curves; disease recurrence or death is a competing event. Cumulative incidence curves will be used for time to event variables with competing risks events. Point estimates and 90% confidence intervals will be used.
Overall survival
Patients are considered a failure for this endpoint if they die, regardless of cause of death. Overall survival will be censored at last follow-up if patients are known to be alive. Kaplan-Meier curves will be used for time to event variables.
Cumulative incidence of relapse
Disease relapse is defined as a decline in the neutrophil count to less than 500/ mm^3 after initial engraftment, which was unrelated to infection, medications, or other causes. Death without disease recurrence will be a competing risk event. Time to disease recurrence will be censored at the last disease assessment of patients remain alive and free of disease recurrence.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
This phase I trial evaluates the safety and feasibility of using a reduced-intensity regimen of cyclophosphamide, pentostatin, and anti-thymocyte globulin prior to a CD4+ T-cell depleted haploidentical hematopoietic cell transplant (haploHCT) for the treatment of patients with severe aplastic anemia that does not respond to treatment (refractory) or that has come back (recurrent). Cyclophosphamide is in a class of medications called alkylating agents. It works by damaging the cell's deoxyribonucleic acid. It may also lower the body's immune response. Pentostatin blocks a protein needed for cell growth. Anti-thymocyte globulin is an immunosuppressive drug can destroy immune cells known as T-cells. HaploHCT transfers blood-forming stem cells from a healthy partially-matched donor to a patient. Administering a regimen of cyclophosphamide, pentostatin, and anti-thymocyte globulin before haploHCT may help make room for the new, healthy cells and may reduce the risk of graft versus host disease.

A unidirectional mismatch in either the graft versus host or host versus graft direction is considered a mismatch. The donor and recipient must demonstrate that they are a full haplotype match by being identical at a minimum of one allele (at high resolution DNA-based typing) at the following genetic loci: HLA-A, -B, -C, and DRB1 if 8 allele typing is used; HLA-A, -B, -C, -DRB1, and -DQB1 if 10 allele typing is used; and HLA-A, -B, -C, -DRB1-, DQB1, and -DPB1 is 12 allele typing is used by the local center. RECIPIENT: Patient and/or legal guardian must sign informed consent for the hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). RECIPIENT: The haplo donor and/or legal guardian must be able to sign informed consent documents. RECIPIENT: The potential haplo donor must be willing and able to donate bone marrow.

For patients < 13 years of age at enrollment: Glomerular filtration rate (GFR) estimated by the updated Schwartz formula > 90 mL/min/1.73 m^2. If the estimated GFR is < 90 mL/min/1.73m^2, then renal function must be measured by 24-hour creatinine clearance or nuclear GFR, and must be > 50mL/min/1.73m^2. RECIPIENT: Women of childbearing potential (WOCBP): negative urine or serum pregnancy test If the urine test is positive or cannot be confirmed as negative, a serum pregnancy test will be required. RECIPIENT: Echocardiogram (ECHO) or multigated acquisition (MUGA): Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) at rest >= 40%. For patients aged < 13 years, shortening fraction (SF) >= 26% by echocardiogram or MUGA may be substituted for LVEF.

DONOR: Documented protocol-specific City of Hope (COH) informed consent per local, state and federal guidelines DONOR: Documented general institutional informed consent per local, state and federal guidelines. DONOR: Age: younger than 60 years. DONOR: Haplo donor selection is based on HLA typing and relationship to recipient. DONOR: When more than one donor is available, the donor with the lowest number of HLA allele mismatches will be chosen unless there is HLA cross-match incompatibility or a medical reason to select otherwise. In cases where there is more than one donor with the least degree of mismatch, donors will be selected based on the most favorable combination of HLA compatibility in cross-match testing and ABO compatibility. Prioritization is given to the lowest number of mismatches in the host-versus-graft (HVG) direction to minimize the risk of graft failure. DONOR: If there is more than one donor with the least amount of host-versus-graft (HVG) allele mismatches, the suggested prioritization in order of importance includes ABO compatibility, cytomegalovirus (CMV) status (use a sero-negative donor for a sero-negative recipient or use a sero-positive donor for a sero-positive recipient), younger age and lighter weight (this rule applies down to the age of 18, however, children may also be used as donors if appropriate), and sex of the donor (if all else is equal, males are preferred over nulliparous females over multiparous females). DONOR: Infectious disease screening performed within 30 days prior to stem cell collection and per federal guidelines and is: Seronegative for HIV Ag, HIV 1+2 Ab, human T-lymphotropic virus (HTLV) I/II Ab, hepatitis B virus surface antigen (HBsAg), hepatitis B virus core antibody (HBcAb) (immunoglobulin M [IgM] and immunoglobulin G [IgG]), HCV Ab; Negative RPR for syphilis.
