Trial Information

Allogeneic Peripheral Blood Stem Cell Transplantation Using a Non-Myeloablative Preparative Regimen for Patients With Hematologic Malignancies


OBJECTIVES: I. Determine the effect of nonmyeloablative chemotherapy followed by allogeneic
peripheral blood stem cell transplantation on hematopoietic recovery in patients with
hematologic malignancies. II. Determine the toxicities of this regimen in these patients.
III. Determine the frequency of mixed hematopoietic chimerism in these patients after this
therapy. IV. Determine the efficacy and toxicity of donor leukocyte infusions at relapse in
these patients. V. Determine the response rates and survival of these patients after this
therapy. VI. Determine the immune reconstitution of patients undergoing this therapy.

OUTLINE: Patients receive fludarabine IV over 30 minutes on days -9 to -5, cyclophosphamide
IV over 1 hour on day -5, and antithymocyte globulin IV over 10 hours on days -5 to -2.
Allogeneic peripheral blood stem cells are infused on day 0. Patients who achieve complete
remission (CR) and then relapse or patients who achieve less than a CR before day 60 receive
donor leukocyte infusions (DLI) over 30 minutes. DLI are repeated as necessary for
persistent disease. Patients are followed at 1, 3, and 6 months, then at 1 and 2 years.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 40 patients will be accrued for this study within 2 years.

Inclusion Criteria


DISEASE CHARACTERISTICS: Histologically proven hematologic malignancy for which there is
no standard curative therapy, including, but not limited to: Low grade non-Hodgkin's
lymphoma (NHL) Mantle cell lymphoma Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (stage II-IV)
Myelodysplastic syndrome, including: Refractory anemia (RA) with ringed sideroblasts RA
with excess blasts (RAEB) RAEB in transformation Chronic myelomonocytic leukemia Multiple
myeloma OR Histologically proven hematologic malignancy that has failed 1 prior therapy OR
is at high risk for relapse, including, but not limited to: Intermediate grade NHL High
grade NHL Hodgkin's disease Acute lymphoblastic lymphoma Acute myelogenous leukemia OR
Histologically proven chronic myelogenous leukemia in chronic or accelerated phase, with
the following risk factors that preclude eligibility for standard allogeneic peripheral
blood stem cell transplantation: Older age Poor performance status Healthy, partially
related HLA 5/6 or 6/6 serologic match donor available A new classification scheme for
adult non-Hodgkin's lymphoma has been adopted by PDQ. The terminology of "indolent" or
"aggressive" lymphoma will replace the former terminology of "low", "intermediate", or
"high" grade lymphoma. However, this protocol uses the former terminology.

PATIENT CHARACTERISTICS: Age: 18 to 60 or physiologic 70 Performance status: Karnofsky 0-2
Life expectancy: Not specified Hematopoietic: Not specified Hepatic: Bilirubin less than
2.0 mg/dL SGOT and SGPT less than 2 times normal No active hepatitis Renal: Creatinine
less than 2.0 mg/dL OR Creatinine clearance greater than 50 mL/min Cardiovascular:
Ejection fraction greater than 45% OR Cardiac clearance Pulmonary: DLCO at least 50%
predicted Other: No active infection HIV-1, HIV-2, and HTLV-1 negative Not pregnant or
nursing
