Eligibility:
All Genders
2-60 years
Phase:
PHASE2
Brief Summary
RATIONALE: Giving low doses of chemotherapy and total-body irradiation before a donor umbilical cord blood transplant helps stop the growth of abnormal cells. It also stops the patient's immune system...
Detailed Description
OBJECTIVES: * To assess the safety and efficacy of unrelated-donor umbilical cord blood transplantation (UCBT) using a nonmyeloablative preparative regimen in patients with hematological disease, in ...
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion
- DISEASE CHARACTERISTICS:
- Diagnosis of high-risk, advanced or poorly responding hematological disease for which a reduced-intensity hemopoietic stem cell transplantation is likely to be effective
- Disease status is such that there is no alternative therapy likely to achieve a cure or provide a significant prolongation of disease-free survival
- No chronic myelogenous leukemia in first chronic phase responding to imatinib or refractory blast crisis
- No acute leukemia in morphological relapse/persistent disease (defined as \> 5% blasts in normocellular bone marrow)
- No malignant disease that is refractory to or progressive on salvage therapy
- No myelofibrosis
- Donor must be matched at HLA-A and -B at antigen level and HLA-DRB1 at allelic level
- No available 5-6/6 HLA-A, -B, -DRB1 matched sibling donor OR 10/10 unrelated volunteer donor
- PATIENT CHARACTERISTICS:
- Karnofsky performance status (PS) 60-100% OR Lansky PS 50-100% (pediatrics)
- Transaminases \< 5 times upper limit of normal (ULN)
- Bilirubin \< 3 times ULN
- Creatinine clearance \> 50 mL/min
- DLCO \> 50% predicted
- No supplemental oxygen requirements
- Not pregnant or nursing
- Negative pregnancy test
- No HIV or HTLV (I and II) antibody positivity or evidence of infection
- No acquired aplastic anemia
- No decompensated congestive heart failure or uncontrolled arrhythmia and left ventricular ejection fraction ≥ 35%
- No current active serious infection, in particular uncontrolled fungal infection
- No congenital immune deficiencies
- PRIOR CONCURRENT THERAPY:
- See Disease Characteristics
- More than 6 months since prior exposure to combination chemotherapy OR only 1 course of induction combination chemotherapy for myelodysplastic syndromes or acute myeloid leukemia (please discuss with study coordinator/s if this course contained fludarabine)
- At least 6 months since prior myeloablative bone marrow transplantation
- No prior irradiation that precludes the safe administration of an additional dose of 200 cGy of total-body irradiation
- No prior autograft
