Trial Information

A Phase II Trial of Reduced Intensity Allogeneic Stem Cell Transplantation With Fludarabine, Melphalan and Low Dose Total Body Irradiation


PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To determine the transplant related mortality (TRM) of this reduced-intensity
transplantation (RIT) combination, fludarabine (fludarabine phosphate), melphalan, and TBI
in a patient population usually not eligible for a full a myeloablative allogeneic
hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT).

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To evaluate clinical response, progression free survival (PFS) at one year, engraftment
rate, and graft-versus-host disease (GvHD) incidence with the proposed RIT regimen across a
variety of hematological conditions.

II. Correlative studies will include chimerism analysis by molecular analysis and evaluation
of immune reconstitution by cytomegalovirus (CMV) dextramer analysis using flow cytometry.

OUTLINE: PREPARATIVE REGIMEN:

Patients receive fludarabine phosphate intravenously (IV) over 30 minutes on days -5 to -2
and melphalan IV over 30 minutes on day -2. Patients undergo low-dose TBI twice daily (BID)
on day -1.

TRANSPLANTATION:

Patients undergo allogeneic PBSCT on day 0.

GvHD PROPHYLAXIS:

Patients receive tacrolimus IV or orally (PO) BID on days -1 to 100 with taper over 4-6
months, MMF PO or IV every 6-8 hours on days -1 to 60, and methotrexate IV over 15-30
minutes on days 1, 3, and 6. After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up
periodically.


Inclusion Criteria:



- Diagnosis of a histology documented hematologic malignancy or marrow disorder

BONE MARROW FAILURE DISORDERS:

- Acquired bone marrow failure disorders include aplastic anemia, paroxysmal nocturnal

deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) repair capacity * Fanconi anemia or related chromosomal
breakage syndrome: positive chromosome breakage analysis using diepoxybutane (DEB) or

- MDS with lower IPSS score Int-1 or less with severe clinical features such as severe
neutropenia or thrombocytopenia or high risk chromosome abnormalities such as
monosomy 7

- Secondary MDS with any IPSS scores

- Chronic myelomonocytic leukemia

LYMPHOPROLIFERATIVE DISEASE:

- Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), low-grade non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) (recurrent
or persistent) fludarabine refractory or with less than 6 months duration or complete
remission (CR) between courses of conventional therapy

- Multiple myeloma (progressive disease after autologous stem cell transplant, tandem
allogeneic transplant after prior autologous stem cell transplant)

- Waldenstrom's macroglobulinemia (failed one standard regimen)

- High grade NHL and diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL)

- Not eligible for conventional myeloablative HSCT OR failed autologous HSCT

- First remission lymphoblastic lymphoma, or small, non-cleaved cell lymphoma or mantle
cell lymphoma

HODGKIN LYMPHOMA:

- Received and failed front-line therapy

- Failed or were not eligible for autologous transplantation DONOR: Permissible human
leukocyte antigen (HLA) matching: related donors

- single antigen mismatch at HLA A, B, or DRB1; unrelated donors

- a single antigen mismatch at HLA A, B, or C, +/- additional single allele level
mismatch at A, B, V or DRB1

- Minimum goal for peripheral blood stem cells (PBSC) dose is 2 x 10^6 CD34+ cells/kg
of recipient weight; minimum goal for the marrow dose is 1 x 10^8 nucleated cells/kg
of recipient weight

- No serious uncontrolled psychiatric illness

- No concomitant active malignancy that would be expected to require chemotherapy
within 3 years of transplant (other than non-melanoma skin cancer)

- Non-pregnant and non-nursing woman; (women or men with reproductive potential should
agree to use an effective means of birth control)

- Patients who have failed a prior autologous or allogeneic transplant are eligible;
however, at least 90 days must have elapsed between the start of this reduced
intensity conditioning regimen and the last transplant if patient had a prior
autologous or myeloablative allogeneic bone marrow transplant (BMT)

- At least 2 weeks since prior chemotherapy, radiation treatment and/or surgery

- Informed consent

DONOR: Compatibility at the four most informative HLA loci:

A, B, C and DRB1 are important for reducing the risk of GVHD and successful transplant
outcomes; the A, B, C and DRB1 loci comprise 8 possible alleles (a haplotype being
inherited from each parent); one additional locus, HLA-DQ, is also typed to ascertain
haplotypes and assist in the search for a compatible donor; however mismatching at DQ has
not been shown to be associated with adverse outcomes; high resolution molecular typing
(at the allele level) is now the standard of care for unrelated donor searches and allows
greater refinement of the search strategy

DONOR: Matched related donor:

a single antigen mismatch at A, B, or the DR transplant from a family member is associated
with a higher risk of GVHD but similar overall survival when compared to full identity at
these 3 regions; related donor/recipient pairs must be matched at 5 of 6 HLA antigens (A,
B, DRB1)

DONOR: Unrelated Donor:

When evaluating patients for unrelated donor transplant, the higher degree of matching,
the lower risk of GvHD; the A, B, C, DRB1 and DQB1 loci, comprising 10 possible antigen
(with alleles), will be typed for all unrelated transplants; given the higher risk of TRM
in mismatched transplants, RIT is often the best way to mitigate the risk; data from the
National Marrow Donor Program makes it possible to estimate the risk of donor-recipient
HLA mismatch at the allele or antigen level; the higher risk from HLA-mismatching must be
balanced against the clinical urgency and the patient's risk by the transplant team; at
this time, antigen level mismatches at DQB1 do not affect outcomes and will not be used
for matching purposes for donor selection; thus, the matching required will be at the HLA
A, B, C and DRB1 (8 loci); for this protocol, a single antigen mismatch at the HLA A, B,
C, with or without additional single allele level mismatch may participate in this
protocol for voluntary unrelated donors (blood or marrow) DONOR: Donor must be healthy and
have non-reactive test results for all infectious disease assays as required by state and
federal regulations; donors who screen seropositive for hepatitis an/or syphilis must be
cleared by infectious disease consultation DONOR: Donor must have no uncontrolled
cardiopulmonary, renal, endocrine, hepatic or psychiatric disease to render donation
unsafe DONOR: The donor (or parent in minor) must give informed consent for peripheral
blood stem cell collection or bone marrow collection DONOR: Syngeneic donors are not
eligible DONOR: Donors who have poor peripheral venous access, may require central venous
line placement for stem cell apheresis
