Brief Summary
RATIONALE: A peripheral stem cell transplant or an umbilical cord blood transplant from a donor may be able to replace blood-forming cells that were destroyed by chemotherapy or radiation therapy. Giving an infusion of the donor's white blood cells (donor lymphocyte infusion) after the transplant may help destroy any remaining cancer cells (graft-versus-tumor effect). Sometimes the transplanted cells can make an immune response against the body's normal cells. Methotrexate, cyclosporine, tacrolimus, or methylprednisolone may stop this from happening. PURPOSE: This clinical trial is studying how well a donor stem cell transplant or donor white blood cell infusions work in treating patients with hematologic cancer.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Number of Participants With Disease Free Survival (DFS).
Determine the effectiveness of unrelated donor allogeneic hematopoietic stem cells for transplantation after conditioning for the treatment of high-risk hematopoietic malignancies. Disease-free survival: The length of time after treatment ends that a patient survives without any signs or symptoms of that cancer or any other type of cancer.
Duration of the study; Up to 2 years
Study Arms (8)
Cyclophosphamide (Cytoxan) and Total Body Irradiation (TBI)
ACTIVE COMPARATORBusulfan and Cyclophosphamide (Cytoxan)
ACTIVE COMPARATORBEAM Regimen
ACTIVE COMPARATOROn the day of your admission, you will start to take a drug called allopurinol which helps to protect your kidneys as your body works to discharge cells killed off by your chemotherapy and TBI. Chemotherapy will begin on Day -6 with carmustine (BCNU), followed by etoposide (VP-16), cytosine arabinoside (ARA-C), and melphalan. This conditioning regimen is known as the BEAM regimen. The dose of this therapy is high enough to kill cancer cells but will also kill all of your normal blood forming cells. Subjects undergoing the BEAM regimen will not have total body irradiation (TBI).
Low-Dose Fludarabine and TBI(for second stem cell donation)
ACTIVE COMPARATORA conditioning regimen of low-dose fludarabine and TBI is used in the event that a second donation of hematopoietic stem cells is necessary. Chemotherapy with Fludarabine will begin 4 days prior to your transplant. This drug will be given through the catheter in your chest daily for 3 days. TBI (radiation) will be given to you on the day of your transplant. After your TBI, your donor's stem cells / bone marrow will be given to you through your catheter. The drugs cyclosporine and mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) will be given orally to help you accept your donor's cells.
Busulfan, Cyclophosphamide, and Fludarabine (Pediatric only)
ACTIVE COMPARATOROn the day of your admission you will start to take a drug called Dilantin which is used to help prevent seizures while you receive your chemotherapy drugs. You will also start to take a drug called allopurinol which helps to protect your kidneys as your body works to discharge cells killed off by your chemotherapy and TBI. On the next day, you will then begin your conditioning therapy with a drug called busulfan. This medicine will be given to you by an infusion into your bloodstream through a small tube in the vein of your arm four times per day for four days. After the busulfan treatment, you will receive 4 doses each of two drugs, cyclophosphamide (also known as Cytoxan) and fludarabine, over 2 hours into your vein.
ATG For Cord Blood Transplants
ACTIVE COMPARATORIf you are undergoing a pre-transplant conditioning regimen prior to undergoing a cord blood transplant, you will receive a drug called ATG to improve your chances of engraftment and decrease your risk of graft versus host disease. You may receive ATG 3 times during your transplant regimen on days -3 through days -1 in addition to your pre-transplant conditioning therapy. Methylprednisolone will also be given during each dose of ATG to help reduce any reactions during infusion.
DLI (Donor Leukocyte Infusion)
ACTIVE COMPARATORDonor Leukocyte Infusions: You will receive DLI from your original transplant donor. This will be given through a vein , usually in your arm. It will be similar to getting a platelet or blood transfusion. You may require more than one DLI. The decision to give you another infusion will be determined by your condition, relapse status, GVHD and how much DLI you were given before. You may need chemotherapy and/or radiation to improve your disease status prior to additional DLI's.
Cyclophosphamide, Etoposide (VP16) and TBI (Pediatric only)
ACTIVE COMPARATOROn the day after your admission, you will start receiving radiation therapy (TBI). Radiation will be given to you 2 times a day for 3 days. On the next day, you will then begin your chemotherapy with a drug called etoposide. This medicine will be given to you by an infusion into your bloodstream through a small tube in the vein of your arm for one day. After the etoposide treatment, on the next day you will receive cyclophosphamide (also known as Cytoxan) for 2 days. When you are given cyclophosphamide, you will also be given a medication called MESNA to help protect your bladder from damage. After you have completed the cyclophosphamide you will rest one day without any anti-cancer therapy. This allows your body time to remove and inactivate the chemotherapy. After a day of rest, you will be given your donor's cells.
Interventions
Intravenous, 1.5 mg/kg of body weight daily for 7 to 14 days The first dose should be administered over a minimum of 6 hours and over at least 4 hours on subsequent doses through a high-flow vein.
Will be given IV at 5 µg/kg/day. The first injection will be administered on day +7, i.e. 7 days after the hematopoietic stem cells are infused. Will be administered until the ANC is 1500 / µl for 2 days. Dose and schedule of G-CSF administration is left to each center's discretion.
Patients who take the drug PO, busulfan will be administered at 1 mg/kg/ dose given by mouth every 6 hours for 16 consecutive doses. Pediatric patients who receive busulfan IV continuous infusion will receive a dose of 3.0 mg/kg/IBW if under the age of 2.Pediatric patients over the age of 2 will receive busulfan at a dose of 0.8 mg/kg/dose.
300mg/m2 IV dissolved in 500 cc NS infused over 2 hours into right atrial catheter on day -6.
For transplantation, the drug is diluted in 250 to 500 cc of NS or D5W and administered IV over 2 hours.
Initial doses will be administered IV at a starting dose of 1.5 mg/kg BID. The infusion will vary from 2-24hr depending on the incidence of side-effects.
400 mg/m2 dissolved in 200cc D5W and infused over 30 minutes into right atrial catheter on days -5, -4, -3, -2.
Etoposide administration 200 mg /m2 dissolved in 1 liter NS and infused over 2 hours into right atrial catheter. Infusion to begin after cytarabine administration on days -5, -4, -3, -2. Etoposide administration 50 mg/kg IV over 24 hours, divided into 3 doses. Dilute in normal saline at a concentration of 0.4 mg/ml (Observe for precipitation). Administered IV with continuous infusion over 24 hours. Diuretics may be given for fluid overload.
Fludarabine administered at 30 mg/m2 IVPB infused over 30 minutes into right atrial catheter on days -4, -3, -2. Fludarabine administered at 40 mg/m2 IVPB infused over 30 into the right atrial catheter on days -5, -4, -3, and -2.

Administered on days +1, +3, and +7.
Methyl-prednisolone is administered IV as a rapid infusion.
Mycophenolate may be used as a substitute for Methotrexate
A drug used to decrease the risk of graft versus host disease (GvHD).
The stem cells will be given to you by intravenous injection (through your vein) using a catheter that was placed prior to beginning chemotherapy. The stem cell infusion takes 1-6 hours.
The patient will receive ATG to improve the changes of engraftment and decrease their risk of graft versus host disease. The patient may receive ATG 3 times during their transplant regimen on days -3 through days -1
Radiation will be given to you 2 times a day for 3 or 4 days.
