Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:

- Adequate liver function defined as: total bilirubin < 2.5 x normal; or SGOT (AST) or SGPT (ALT) < 5.0 x normal.
- Adequate cardiac function defined as: shortening fraction of > 25% by echocardiogram, or ejection fraction of > 40% by radionuclide angiogram or echocardiogram.
- Adequate pulmonary function defined as: DLCO > 35% by pulmonary function test. For children who are uncooperative, no evidence of dyspnea at rest, no exercise intolerance, and a pulse oximetry > 94% in room air.
Diseases:
- CML (CP, AP or BC)
- AML/MDS/JCML
- ALL
- Lymphoma (Hodgkin's and non-Hodgkin's)
- Non-malignant disorders
Bone Marrow Failure Syndromes: Patients with the following diagnoses are eligible:

- Amegakaryocytic Thrombocytopenia
- Diamond-Blackfan Anemia
- Infantile Osteopetrosis

Immunodeficiencies:
- SCIDS, all subtypes
- Combined Immunodeficiency Syndrome
- Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome
- Chronic Granulomatous Disease
- Chediak-Higashi Syndrome
- Leukocyte Adhesion Deficiency
- Other immunodeficiencies at discretion of Principal Investigator
Inborn Errors of Metabolism (IEOM):
- Transplant is recommended for the following disorders: Hurler syndrome (L-iduronidase deficiency, MPS-I), Maroteaux-Lamy syndrome (galactosamine-4-sulfatase deficiency, MP VI), Sly syndrome (glucuronidase deficiency, MPS-VII), Globoid cell Leukodystrophy (galactocerebrosidasedeficiency), Metachromatic leukodystrophy (arylsulfatase A deficiency), Childhood-onset X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy (X-ALD), Fucosidosis (fucosidase deficiency), Mannosidosis, Aspartylglucosaminuria, Niemann-Pick Disease Type B (acid sphingomyelinase deficiency), Gaucher disease (glucocerebrosidase deficiency) Type I (non neuropathic), Other diagnoses may be considered at the discretion of the Principal Investigator
- For X-ALD patients greater than 5 years of age, IQ > 80 is required. For other patients greater than 5 years of age, IQ > 70 is required.
- For patients less than 5 years of age, the developmental quotient or clinical neurodevelopmental examination should demonstrate potential for stabilization at a level of functioning where continuous life support (e.g. mechanical ventilation) would not be predicted to be required in the year following transplantation.
Histiocytosis:
- Hemophagocytic Lymphohistiocytosis (HLH)
- Familial Erythrophagocytic Lymphohistiocytosis
- Langerhans Cell Histiocytosis
- Malignant Histiocytosis
- Other Malignant and non-malignant diseases: Other malignant and non-malignant diseases not listed above may be eligible if deemed appropriate by the Principal Investigator.

Arms of the Study
Arm 1
Experimental
UDAlloSCT + Therapy
This is a non-randomized study to test the safety and response of unrelated matched donor allogeneic stem cell transplantation (UDAlloSCT) with either myleoablative (full intensity) or reduced intensity conditioning therapy in patients with selected malignant and non-malignant disorders. UDAlloSCT has been performed in both adults and children as an alternative transplant for patients who lack and HLA-matched family donor in both malignant and non-malignant disease with varying degrees of response.
