Combined Haploidentical-Cord Blood Transplantation for Adults and Children

The primary objective is to assess the rate of engraftment with combined haploidentical-cord blood transplantation. The secondary objective is to evaluate the incidence and severity of acute and chronic graft-versus-host disease (GVHD).

Treatment and study plan

Fludarabine-Melphalan & Rabbit antithymocyte globulin (r-ATG)

Drug

Fludarabine is given through the vein daily for 5 days. Melphalan is given through the vein daily for 2 days. ATG is given every day in the vein for four days.

Stem Cell Transplant

Procedure

Infusion of haploidentical donor, umbilical cord blood

Stem Cells Collections

Procedure

Haploidentical cells will be T-cell depleted using the Miltenyi Clinimax device.

Fludarabine, Thiotepa, Antithymocyte globulin (ATG), and Total Body Irradiation (TBI)

Drug

Fludarabine is given through the vein daily for 5 days. Thiotepa is given through the vein daily for 2 days. ATG is given through the vein every other day for 4 days. TBI is given twice a day for 3 days.

Fludarabine, Busulfan, and ATG

Drug

Fludarabine is given through the vein daily for 5 days. Busulfan is given through the vein daily for 4 days. ATG is given through the vein every other day for 4 days.

Primary outcomes

  1. Percentage of Participants With Neutrophil Engraftment

    Time frame: Transplant (Day 0) through Day +28

    Cumulative incidence of graft failure (neutrophil) by day 28 was reported. Patients who did not have neutrophil engraftment before death was considered as a competing risk. Failure to engraft was defined as lack of evidence of hematopoietic recovery (ANC <500/mm3 and platelet count < 20,000/mm3) by day +35, confirmed by a biopsy revealing a marrow cellularity < 5%. Graft failure was also defined as initial myeloid engraftment by day +35, documented to be of donor origin, followed by a drop in the ANC to < 500/mm3 for more than three days, independent of any myelosuppressive drugs, severe GVHD, CMV, or other infection.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Percentage of Participants With Incidence of Acute (Grade II-IV) and Chronic Graft-vs-host Disease(GVHD)

    Time frame: Up to 2 years

    Acute GVHD is defined by the Przepiorka criteria, which stages the degree of organ involvement in the skin, liver, and gastrointestinal (GI) tract, based on severity, with Stage 1+ being least severe and stage 4+ being the most severe. Grading of acute GVHD is as follows: Grade II (skin involvement stages 1+ to 3+, liver 1+, GI tract 1+), Grade III (skin involvement stages 2+ to 3+, liver 1+, GI tract 2+ to 4+), Grade IV (skin involvement stages 4+, Liver 4+).

    Chronic GVHD is assessed by NIH consensus development project on criteria for clinical trials in chronic graft-versus-host disease: I. Diagnosis and staging working group report. Biol Blood Marrow Transplant. 2005; 11:945-56., for grading criteria. (See Citation: Filipovich AH et al)

    The incidence of patients with acute GVHD (Grade II-IV) was determined at 180 days. The incidence of Chronic GVHD by 2 years was reported

  2. Overall Survival- Percentage of Participants Who Survived at 2 Years and 5 Years

    Time frame: up to 5 years

    We reported overall survival at 2 years and 5 years after transplant
