Allo BMT Using Matched Related/Unrelated Donors With FluBu and HiCY

- Registration Number
- NCT00809276
- Brief Summary
The purpose of this research is to find the most effective and least toxic way to prevent GVHD after BMT.
- Detailed Description
A person who has cancer of the blood or lymph glands can be treated by bone marrow transplantation (BMT). BMT has developed over several decades of research on both animal and human subjects as an effective treatment of various malignant and nonmalignant hematologic diseases. Many hematologic malignancies can be successfully treated with a combination of high-dose chemotherapy or chemo-radiotherapy and transplantation of allogeneic bone marrow or peripheral blood stem cells (alloBMT)
However, a possible side effect of BMT is graft versus host disease (GVHD). GVHD occurs when cells of the donor's immune system, which are present in the bone marrow, attack the BMT recipient's normal tissue. Prevention of GVHD is important for the success of the bone marrow transplant. This research is being done to find the most effective and least toxic way to prevent GVHD after BMT

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method To Determine the Optimal Regimen of Post-graft Immunosuppression With High-dose Cy Following Fludarabine, Busulfan, and Transplantation of Fully HLA-matched Bone Marrow That Leads to an Acceptable Incidence of Grades III/IV Acute GVHD 1 year Percentage of participants with grade III-IV acute graft versus host disease (GVHD). GVHD is graded on a combination of skin symptoms (rash), gut symptoms (diarrhea), and liver symptoms (using a lab test called bilirubin). Grades range from I to IV, where I is the least severe and IV is the most severe.
