A Phase II Prospective Study Evaluating Selective Depletion of CD45RA+ (Naïve) T Cells (TND) From Peripheral Blood Stem Cell (PBSC) Grafts for Prevention of Graft Versus Host Disease (GVHD) in Non-Malignant Diseases (NMDs)
Fred Hutchinson Cancer Center
Summary
This phase II trial investigates how well a naive T cell depleted graft work for the reduction of graft versus host disease in patients with non-malignant diseases requiring hematopoietic cell transplantation. Giving chemotherapy and total-body irradiation before a donor peripheral blood stem cell transplant helps stop the growth of cells in the bone marrow, including normal blood-forming cells (stem cells) and cancer cells. It may also stop the patient's immune system from rejecting the donor's stem cells. When the healthy stem cells from a donor are infused into the patient, they may help the patient's bone marrow make stem cells, red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets. The donated stem cells may also replace the patient's immune cells and help destroy any remaining cancer cells.
Description
OUTLINE: Patients will receive CD34+ enriched CD45RA-depleted donor T-lymphocytes IV on day 0. For conditioning, patients receive cyclophosphamide by IV on day -8, fludarabine by IV on day -7 to day -3, thiotepa IV on day -7 and day -6, and undergo total-body irradiation (TBI) for 2 doses on day -2 and day -1. GVHD Prophylaxis: All patients also receive tacrolimus IV continuously starting on day -1, and mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) starting day 0 through day 35. If there is no evidence of grade II-IV acute GVHD on or prior to day 100, tacrolimus is tapered. All patients also undergo bone mar…
