Bone Marrow Transplantation in Treating Patients With Hematologic Cancer

Phase 2

Completed

• Conditions: Chronic Myeloproliferative Disorders; Lymphoma; Multiple Myeloma and Plasma Cell Neoplasm; Leukemia; Precancerous/Nonmalignant Condition; Small Intestine Cancer; Myelodysplastic Syndromes

• Registration Number: NCT00005804
• Lead Sponsor: Fred Hutchinson Cancer Center

Brief Summary

RATIONALE: Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to damage cancer cells. Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining chemotherapy with bone marrow transplantation may allow the doctor to give higher doses of chemotherapy drugs and kill more tumor cells.

PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of bone marrow transplantation in treating patients who have hematologic cancer.

Detailed Description

OBJECTIVES:

* Compare the incidence of graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) grades III and IV in patients with hematologic malignancies treated with bone marrow transplantation (BMT) using donors with 1 HLA-A or B non-cross-reactive group mismatch vs control patients previously treated with BMT using donors with 1 HLA-A or B cross-reactive group (CREG) mismatch.

* Compare the incidence of GVHD grades III and IV in patients with hematologic malignancies treated with BMT using donors with 1 HLA-A or B CREG mismatch vs control patients previously treated with BMT using matched donors.

* Determine the relevance of HLA-DRB1 or DQB1 allele mismatching in BMT using donors matched for HLA-A, B, and C.

OUTLINE: Beginning at least 3 weeks after completion of cytoreductive combination chemotherapy, patients under age 18 undergo total body irradiation (TBI) twice a day on days -7 to -4. Patients age 18 and over undergo TBI twice a day on days -6 to -4. All patients then receive cyclophosphamide IV daily on days -3 and -2. Males with acute lymphocytic leukemia, high-grade lymphoma, intermediate-grade lymphoma, or marrow or CNS involvement receive radiotherapy boost to the testes. On day 0, patients receive infusion of bone marrow from unrelated donors with 1 of the following: 1 HLA-A or B non-cross-reactive group mismatch; 1 HLA-A or B cross-reactive group mismatch; or an HLA-A, B, and C match with an HLA-DRB1 or DQB1 mismatch.

Patients are followed every 6 months for 2 years and then annually thereafter.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 150 patients will be accrued for this study within 5 years.
