Brief Summary

This study tests the clinical outcomes of one of two preparative regimens (determined by available donor source) in patients with non-malignant hemoglobinopathies. The researchers hypothesize that the...

Prior to transplantation, subjects will receive either: Cyclophosphamide, Fludarabine, Campath, Total body irradiation (TBI) Or Busulfan, Cyclophosphamide, antithymocyte globulin (ATG), granulocyte...

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

  • Patients with Sickle Cell Disease/Thalassemia (SCD/THAL) 0-50 years of age with an acceptable stem cell donor and disease characteristic defined by the following:
  • Stroke, central nervous system (CNS) hemorrhage or a neurologic event lasting longer than 24 hours, or abnormal cerebral magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) or cerebral arteriogram or MRI angiographic study and impaired neuropsychological testing
  • Acute chest syndrome with a history of recurrent hospitalizations or exchange transfusions
  • Recurrent vaso-occlusive pain 3 or more episodes per year for 3 years or more years or recurrent priapism,
  • Impaired neuropsychological function and abnormal cerebral MRI scan
  • Stage I or II sickle lung disease,
  • Sickle nephropathy (moderate or severe proteinuria or a glomerular filtration rate \[GFR\] 30-50% of the predicted normal value)
  • Bilateral proliferative retinopathy and major visual impairment in at least one eye
  • Osteonecrosis of multiple joints with documented destructive changes
  • Requirement for chronic transfusions but with red blood cell (RBC) alloimmunization \>2 antibodies during long term transfusion therapy
  • Patients with transfusion dependent alpha- or beta-thalassemia 0-35 years of age with an acceptable stem cell donor as defined in the criteria in section above.
  • Patients with other non-malignant hematologic disorders that are transfusion-dependent or involve other potentially life-threatening cytopenias (including but not limited to Severe Congenital Neutropenia, Diamond-Blackfan Anemia and Shwachman-Diamond Syndrome) who are 0-35 years of age with an acceptable stem cell donor
  • Second Transplants
  • Patients with sickle cell disease or thalassemia who have failed to engraft or have autologous recovery after a myeloablative SCT regimen or non-myeloablative regimen are eligible for this protocol.
  • Regimen A2 will be utilized for patients with sickle cell disease or thalassemia who do not have an HLA-identical sibling donor or for any patient who has pre-existing organ dysfunction making them ineligible for a myeloablative preparative regimen.
  • Regimen B will be utilized for patients with sickle cell disease or thalassemia who have an HLA-identical sibling donor.
  • Patients must meet above criteria.
  • If the patient has received prior radiation therapy, eligibility to receive additional radiation therapy must be determined by Dr. Dusenbery
  • If first transplant was a non-myeloablative regimen, the second transplant can occur at any time
  • If the first transplant was a myeloablative regimen, then the second transplant must be \> 6 months from the first transplant

Exclusion

  • Patients with one or more of the following:
  • Karnofsky or Lansky performance score \<70
  • Acute hepatitis or evidence of moderate or severe portal fibrosis or cirrhosis on biopsy
  • Stage III-IV lung disease
  • GFR\<30% predicted
  • Pregnant or lactating females
  • Active serious infection whereby patient has been on intravenous antibiotics for one week prior to study entry. Any patient with AIDS or ARC or HIV seropositivity
  • Psychologically incapable of undergoing bone marrow transplant (BMT) with associated strict isolation or documented history of medical non-compliance
  • Patients not able to receive total lymphocytic irradiation (TLI) due to prior radiation therapy
