Purpose

This research is being done to learn more about nonmyeloablative bone marrow transplantation (BMT), also known as a "mini" transplant for patients with blood cancers, using bone marrow from a relative.

Detailed Description

      The main goal is to learn whether a drug called tacrolimus, which is an immune-lowering drug
      (an immunosuppressant) given after transplant to help prevent certain complications, can be
      given safely for a shorter period of time than it has been in the past.

      At the present time there are few or no cures for your type of disease outside of a bone
      marrow transplant. The bone marrow for this transplant comes from a relative who is a
      half-match or "haplo" match to you. Possible donors include parents, siblings, and children.
      In order to help the bone marrow grow, or "take", inside your body, you will receive
      chemotherapy and radiation before the transplant. After the transplant you will receive high
      doses of cyclophosphamide (Cytoxan®) along with other medications to lower the immune system,
      tacrolimus. These medications may lower the risk of graft versus host disease (GVHD) and of
      your body rejecting the bone marrow graft.

Primary Outcome Measures

Measure:Safety of reduced-dose tacrolimus as assessed by Percentage of Participants with severe graft versus host disease (GVHD)
Time Frame:Day 5 - Day 120
Safety Issue:
Description:Percentage of participants with severe graft versus host disease (GVHD) defined as grade III-IV acute GVHD or extensive chronic GVHD. Acute GVHD is defined by the Przepiorka criteria, which stages the degree of organ involvement in the skin, liver, and gastrointestinal (GI) tract, based on severity, with Stage 1+ being least severe and stage 4+ being the most severe. Grading of acute GVHD is as follows: Grade I (skin involvement stages 1+ to 2+, with no liver or GI involvement), Grade II (skin involvement stages 1+ to 3+, liver 1+, GI tract 1+), Grade III (skin involvement stages 2+ to 3+, liver 1+, GI tract 2+ to 4+), Grade IV (skin involvement stages 4+, Liver 4+). Chronic GVHD is defined by the NIH consensus criteria. This system gives scores from 0 to 3 for Karnofsky performance score, skin, mouth, eyes, gastrointestinal, liver, lungs, joints, and genitals, as well as an overall severity. Higher scores indicate more severe disease. Scores are not totaled or added up.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Measure:Percentage of participants experiencing acute GVHD
Time Frame:Up to 7 years
Safety Issue:
Description:Percentage of participants with grade II-IV and III-IV acute GVHD. Acute GVHD is defined by the Przepiorka criteria, which stages the degree of organ involvement in the skin, liver, and gastrointestinal (GI) tract, based on severity, with Stage 1+ being least severe and stage 4+ being the most severe. Grading of acute GVHD is as follows: Grade I (skin involvement stages 1+ to 2+, with no liver or GI involvement), Grade II (skin involvement stages 1+ to 3+, liver 1+, GI tract 1+), Grade III (skin involvement stages 2+ to 3+, liver 1+, GI tract 2+ to 4+), Grade IV (skin involvement stages 4+, Liver 4+).
Measure:Percentage of participants experiencing chronic GVHD
Time Frame:Up to 7 years
Safety Issue:
Description:Percentage of participants with chronic GVHD. Chronic GVHD is defined by the NIH consensus criteria. This system gives scores from 0 to 3 for Karnofsky performance score, skin, mouth, eyes, gastrointestinal, liver, lungs, joints, and genitals, as well as an overall severity (mild, moderate, or severe). Higher scores indicate more severe disease. Scores are not totalled or added up.

Safety Issue:
Description:Percentage of participants experiencing disease relapse or progression.
Measure:Non-relapse mortality
Time Frame:Up to 7 years
Safety Issue:
Description:Percentage of participants who died for any reason other than disease relapse or progression.
Measure:Use of immunosuppression
Time Frame:Up to 2 years
Safety Issue:
Description:Percentage of participants who: required use of steroids; required use of non-steroid immunosuppression; and who were able to discontinue immunosuppression after starting treatment.
Measure:Survival
Time Frame:Up to 7 years
