Trial Information

A Phase I-II Trial of Adoptive Immunotherapy Using Haploidentical, Related Donor-Lymphocyte Infusions and IL-2 After Autologous Stem Cell Transplantation for Advanced Lymphoid Malignancies


OBJECTIVES:

Primary

- Determine the feasibility and toxicity of haploidentical related donor lymphocyte
infusions (DLI) and interleukin-2, in terms of acute graft-versus-host-disease, graft
failure, and transplant-related mortality, in patients with relapsed advanced lymphoid
malignancies undergoing autologous stem cell transplantation.

Secondary

- Determine the extent, degree, and duration of donor chimerism in patients treated with
this regimen.

- Determine, preliminarily, activity of haploidentical DLI, as measured by complete
response rate, in these patients.

OUTLINE: This is a pilot study.

Patients receive high-dose melphalan IV over 15-60 minutes on day -2 and undergo autologous
stem cell transplantation on day 0. Patients receive haploidentical related donor lymphocyte
infusions (DLI) IV on days 1, 5*, and 10* and interleukin-2 (IL-2) IV continuously on days
1-12.

NOTE: *DLI are not administered on days 5 or 10 if grade 3 or 4 graft-versus-host disease is
present

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed monthly for 3 months and then
every 3-12 months thereafter.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 20 patients will be accrued for this study.
